Its funny mate, there are loads advertised but when you take a closer look there isnt actually alot, OR we are just fussy sods as you said!

Standard blob sti with those mods should make late 3's I would think.

New turbo.

Front mount at that power I wouldnt think is completely necessary

Standard injectors should be fine

If it has PPP then the fuel pump will have been upgraded anyway

Again it would probably make 380 on a 2.5 inch but a 3 will flow better and give better gains.

To be honest even if a standard blob with those mods made 360 and good torque it would be a cracking car to drive and you can tweak it about to drive how you like it when its mapped.

I remeber when I went with Paul (Scoobishmuck) and he simply changed his fuel pump and got a remap. It went from the standard 265 ish to 320 and similar torque and the difference was incredible. Much more so than when I had the hawk mapped, despite it having a bit more power.
