The 5 spd wrx gearbox is generally ok up to around 350bhp max, 6 spds will take a lot more power but conversion can cost £1500-£2000.

In reality, i'd stick with the 5 spd for now, pushing beyond 350bhp with standard engine internals on a wrx is asking for trouble anyway imo. Most people seem to get to 320-330bhp reliably with injectors, fuel pump, decat exhaust, vf35 and remap.
