Question

Not being overly technical - what turbo comes in the 99 STi5?

You can of course only get so much power out of a turbo so whats the max BHP with mods available from the turbo in the STi5?

Mine is currently running at 295BHP (Powerstation RR). If I want to take it past 300BHP - what's the next step?

Any advice appreciated

VF28.

Full exhaust, remap should get it over 300 BHP at Powerstation, hopefully.

295 is good going at PS, makes it 325/320 ish at G-force or PE.
Sure its not been tweaked

edited to add you can get close to 340 with a VF28, not at PS though so maybe 310/315 there.

Only tweaks are gas flowed downpipe, ECU reset, green filter and dump valve (all by TSL). Looking at taking it a stage further but unsure of the way ahead.
Bigger turbo, fuel pump, re-map, what ?
Any advice much appreciated.
