Cool, wouldn't mind a 18G myself.

Your stock 380's are too small. 440's wouldn't really have enough in em' and would soon run out of puff.
So would go for 550's
You may want to consider an STi 1997/1998 Orange Label MAF too, as yours has limited flow capability.

£250 for mapping then whatever you can pick an ECU up for new or 2nd hand.
Prices Range from £300 - £700, best keep an eye on ebay....http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Apexi-Power-FC-EC ... 240%3A1318

No good for a Classic as they are top feeds.
