What to do with my Hawk STI?
Having sold my classic and bought a hawk sti ppp, I have been busy sourcing parts for my project with the intention of getting everything fitted at once. Going by Andy Forrest's level 3 recommendations the plan was for around 400bhp and similar torque, but although the car will never see a track I am now worried that this may not be a safe option and was looking for some advice.
The parts I have collected are
Harvey Smith 20g
SWRD 290 lph fuel pump and 650cc injectors
RCM induction kit with SWRD silicone intake and airbox hose
Prodrive 3 port boost solenoid
Cosworth thermal intake gaskets
Milltek 3" turbo back exhaust and plan on getting my standard headers ported and a Harvey Smith trick up-pipe
NGK LFR7AIX spark plugs
Basically I am asking whether I should keep the VF43, standard injectors and go for a 2.5" turbo back exhaust or continue with my plan? Thanks.

Is it not the bolts on the rods that are the weak point? Could have picked that up wrong. Ad go ahead with ur plans but defo get the head gasket done at the same time. Give yourself half a chance at least.
