Default what bhp have i got

I have a 1995 WRX import wagon, It is fully d-cated, front mount intercooler, K&N induction kit, IHI VF 34 turbo running at 0.5 bar, just wondering what bhp it would roughly be?

Did you change the turbo? TD04 is standard.
0.5bar is quite low you should be running 0.7bar ish.

Standard bhp is about 220 so i would say less than that.

origanally it had TD04, then i changed to TD05, then put a IHI VF34 ball bearing turbo on, any ideas why it only at 0.5 bar of boost?

0.5bar is base wastegate pressure.
If you've uprated the turbo you really should have the ecu remapped (aftermarket or add on daughterboard) as the standard ecu will struggle with the new turbo.

if u get a remap you will see it producing about 330 or 340 on that turbo at 1.2-3 bar boost and have you uprated the fuel pump when you dont all these mods? and what about injectors have you uprated them to at least 550cc ones?

Doing a quick calc. - assuming you have a kocklink and Oil Catch Tank - it would be standing at about 500 BHP, give or take a tolerance of 50%

You could pay £20 and get a rolling road print-out to hang on your wall .... with a figure, depending upon the accuracy of the set-up (they are all different).

217/8bhp (220ps), wrx wagons run a TD04 turbo and not a TD05, hence they are lower powered
You need to get it mapped, it wont be happy if your giving it beans
