Power depends massively on the mapping.

Clutch, brakes and a rebuild will be on the cards if you hit 350 bhp on standard internals!

Andy Forrest is the top man for remaps IMHO.
You'll be looking around 350 - 390bhp on a VF43.
Youll be needing a new clutch tho

A WRX with the PPP doesn't need mapping. Accidentally dumping the clutch facing the wrong way one of these cars can cause the earth to spin in reverse.

But the PPP has a self-learning ECU, to unleash the raw power you only have to fit a VTA dump valve!

You all think I'm running a Cosworth forged lump it's actually a 1999 Turbo 2000 engine.
Crazy Dave didn't tell you the truth, I went to Dastardly Dan who sold me a sticker kit that DOUBLES the horsepower.
I would combine the two but I'm afraid it might cause a repeat of the Fukushima incident.
