In that case I would say nothing is wrong.
Yours will only be 265 bhp as standard but weighs alot more than the 185BHP corsa.
Hot hatches have come along way since your car was made.
You need to fit a panel filter, free flowing exhaust and have it re-mapped.
Should see around 330BHP then

I'm in Newport, and would have a quick look over it, not sure how much use I'll be, I can check the basics, and probably have a fair idea if it feels right or not.
You could really do with a boost gauge to check if it's making boost properly, may only be making actuator pressure for some reason.

I thought the Prodrive bugeye STi was simply styling mods: Bumper, Grill and rear spoiler.
But the PPP was an option, this poster didn't mention PPP but standard car
