Default Looking for 300 brake - what next

Current spec of my 93 type ra is:
LW flywheel/Exedy uprated clutch
Full 3" de-cat
255 pump
Large K&N filter
Induction pipe
Scott Tayor chip
Dawes device
FMIC
Knock/Lamba link/boost gauge etc

At Teg sport last week it made 284 brake(with top mount) and approx 270ish flb

I would like to make 300/310 brake by fitting a mapped ecu and ported headers, is this possible?

A remapped ecu will see you easily over 300 bhp

Ported & Wrapped headers + Injectors (although i'm unsure of what the std injectors are, if they are 440 then its ok but i'm sure their less) & Fuel Reg ?

Parralell fuel mod aswell

and maybe a 3 port boost solenoid for better boost control

What ECU are you going for ? (Apexi ?)

Yes looking at getting an Apexi, i think the ra inj are bigger than the wrx but not sure. How easy is the fuel rail mod?

Dont think the fuel rail mod is necessary for 300......

Mine is also '93 (non ra) with a target of 320 ish and I'm not getting it done.

True.

The fuel rail mod isn't necessary but it is cheap and easy and should be done for reliability more than anything.

If you look at 911's thread in the project section he goes through the procedure in detail.

That's all cool - but it is a genuine question, are there any significant gains to be had by using Apexi FC over a scoobychip on these classic cars?

Is it a wrx or wrx sti?
Reason I ask is I have a sti Ra with similar mods and would be curious to know what power to expect

Would the Apexi allow more 'fine-tuning' to be done to get the most out of the mods on the car?
