Just bought my first Scooby
Traded in my Silver Fiesta ST for a Silver 2006 WRX PPP
Pick it up next week, going to be a long long week.
But at least it gives me time to check all the lovely scoobs on here and get to know the car a bit better and plan my mods
First things first, what power (bhp/lbs) will my WRX PPP be running?
What's the next stage of tuning for me? I'd really like to bring the car up to around 300bhp if possible.

Get some pics up 
So you bought the car, without knowing what the standard power is?? If 300 is the goal, why not just buy an STi? I think the WRX is around 230 not sure though...
Next step:
brakes
suspension
turbo
injectors
fuel pump
tmic
induction or panel filter
decat or exhaust
remap
Not sure about the WRX hawkeyes, but I think you need to be careful with how much torque you are running as the WRX gearbox is a little on the soft side.

Hello and welcome to the fold.....
Is the WRX PPP 260 standard?!?
Have you a link to your purchase!?!?!?! The only reason I say this is becuase scoobynet has a huge following and from time to time a subaru up for sale has been owned by a member on here... Also we can tell you if you have bought rightly or wrongly

Good choice Mate and welcome. PPP will give you around 270/ 280 on Hawk. Hawkeye gearbox fine until you stray north of 350, having said that there are folk on here running more with no issues, its the torque that can kill them.
The TD04 is close to its limits at 280ish.
Your car will already have a decatted up pipe, this together with a VF35, decat / sportcat and remap should see an easy 320 with bags of torque.
Your injectors and intercooler will be okay at that level.
Decent discs and pads, 22/24mm rear ARB will give you a very rapid and subtle road car
