With the power goals you were talking about on Saturday I think I said it wouldn't be big enough to keep up further up the rev range / runs out of puff
I'm **** at explaining stuff. lol
A standard TD05 ? Powerstation told me it isn't physically big enough to feed the engine and also the extra capacity of the engine will spin the turbo faster than what it's capable of doing ???
Not a big fan of powerstation myself, I'm not saying that they aren't good as their type 25 is a superb maching, but that always seem to want to charge a fortune for a small job. I suppose if they can get away with it then you can't blame them, but my money goes elsewhere. I wouldn't say they are the best people to talk to about tuning a classic on a budget.
Personally I would not change the bottom end for 350, and I would not be concerned about hitting that figure either, just aim for it.
Choose your supporting mods wisely and anything above 320 will make a superb classic to drive.

It's not a case of wanting to change it Borat, the one he's got is buggered.

My mistake mate
I probably misunderstood you with everything else going on around us
10k will get 1 with all the bits, all it will need is a bit of a tweak to get the power.
How much has been spent on yours to get it to the power it is ?
Dunno,a few grand just on performance mods I spose,but then there's the gearbox,diffs,clutch,flywheel,suspension,wheels and a rebuild by Api that didn't last long unforunately
I'd like to know what the guy I bought it off done to it(other than run it on BP fuel when it's mapped on V-Power!) to cause the engine problem. It's done less than 15,000 miles
I have an STi 5 Type-r gearbox fitted,rebuilt my Zen Performance and I think P1 diffs aswell,amongst other things
That won't help you

Why not?
The STI 5/6 had the stronger gearboxes and are known to run over 400/400 relatively easily. I know of two 11 Second STI's who are running P1 Drivetrains and Andy.F was dragging his own Sti 5 Type R on the standard box when he was running around 500 lbs torque.
Built engines that I personally know of (i.e I built the engine on at least one of them) couple of months later were back with whining boxes, at least one of them was relatively low mileage too.
Exception to the rule maybe. I don't believe it.

Maybe.... The below thread is quite interesting though.
