cost me close to 6k to get my WRXppp up to 340bhp. £1600 of that has been the mapping at various stages with different tuner's (obviously best to find a good one and stick with him). The Tubular Headers did a lot more for the mid range power than the bhp headlines. I still think good bhp is going to cost and for me how the car performs on the road and reliability are the keynotes.

Hi, I think the final cost is closer to 3k, a large chunk of that are the dealer labour costs (if only I could do this work myself!) My local dealer Tileys of Bristol helped me out with some good quality second hand parts (amongst some new bits) and gave me a deal on the labour costs. I upraded the exhaust first inc uppipe, and just drove round with the CEL on for two months. I only remapped the day after I upgraded the turbo and injectors. Thinking about it now I could have probably saved myself a little more if I had waited and got some more of the work done together and saved a bit more on some of the labour costs, but me being me was just too impatient to get the new bits on!

only thing i would say is, your not gonna wanna pay for an sti if your gonna upgrade alot fo the parts, you'll be paying for it twice if you do.
for example.
i could have bought an sti classic instead of what i've done to mine, but, i know have more bower, better handeling and strongr drive train without a bigger out lay for the car and parts that were replaced
