With stronger internals, bigger turbo, and larger injectors, Im sure you could get to around 350whp. Then all the different options of stroking the motor come into play...but then u might start to lose the streetable ability of it some, depending on how crazy u go. Street 350whp-400whp is possible but it will take a good amount of money to get there.

I gotta get a ride in your RS! Didn't get a good look last Thursday. Will you be at the next Marin/LIC meet?

Steve,
For sure, but ur kinda setting urself up for disappointment, cuz that setup i listed above is my buddies....im just runnin the NA EJ25 with AEM intake, Borla header, Stromung catback, Exedy clutch/12.6lb flywheel, and then some suspension. Soon tho, im talkin with Adam about the swap, and the way i do it and how i cant hold back, ill be close to that setup soon after i finally get the swap, i just HAVE to, driving my buddies car is too addictive. And yes, ill be at LIC tomorrow night. See u there!

Hate to be negative, but it's just a waste of money to make that much power out of the stock engine. For the time/money you spend on tweaking the power to 400hp, you could just as easily sell your WRX and buy an Sti that makes 300 reliable horsepower, which would be a lot cheaper to build up to 400+ hp.
But if you do it...good luck!
