A sport cat or decat would help as well, plus I'd get the remap done at the same time, or you'll be running about with the tuning all wrong.
Save up and do it all at once!

if your going for bigger turbo then you may as well go for a newage sti top mount, way better than the wrx top mount.

Depends on what BHP you want really, i'm having my 52 bug on the rollers 1st to see what i'm getting at the moment then going from there. i think for moderate increase in performance then a K&N panel filter (or similar), 3" exhaust and a remap would be a step in the right direction.

Gazza if it's a WRX expect around 270 that's what mine made, you may need to budget for a 3port boost solenoid as well.

It is a WRX, was looking at between 270 and 290 as i plan on adding a STI tmic, 3 port boost solenoid and a walbro uprated fuel pump to the panel filter, exhaust and remap i had already planned on.

Don't forget the Scoop and undertray if you're fitting the STi TMIC otherwise you won't get the full benefit.
