question about a WRX
ok so this girl im good friends with her sisters bf has a WRX its not an STi its just a WRX... he sed he has 330whp with upgraded turbo, ehxuats, intercooler and intake... wouldnt u have more then that? or need to do more then that do upgrade the turbo?
Well the advantages with the exhaust/intake won't be substantial. A bigger turbo would put up those kind of numbers, but I would think it would need the mods to support the turbo. He has the I/C to support to turbo, but what about injectors and EM?
If some girl was asking me about my mods to my WRX and it was a stage 4 I wouldn't bother telling her about my upgraded injectors and fuel pump... Even if I did tell her I doubt she would relay that info on to someone else... With the WRX most aftermarket turbos are boltons and you don't need kits like you see with the Evo, other than that you just need some EM (flash or piggyback) and some fuel. Every thing you need for stage 4 can be had for under 4k, that includes turbo, exhaust, utec, and fuel upgrades.

I have owned 2 WRX's. With a VF-30 upgraded turbo w/ injectors, FMIC, ECUTEK reflash and tuning I put down 300 WHP here at DynoComp. It could be very possible just depending on the kind of turbo. Mine was a rare case, most with my setup put down about 260 to the wheels.
Evo9Kid, why do you keep asking us these dumb questions about Subarus? I don't understand. It's like you just make a new thread whenever something enters your head. This is not a sounding board for your kiddie curiosities. Try to keep it relevant to Evo General when posting, ok?
my friend has an 05 wrx
he has a 20g turbo with utec and supporting mods....tbe/fmic/injectors/intake...the whole deal
he is making about 330 on 93 octane
it's not tuned very aggressively

To answer your question a stock WRX would put down around 171whp. 330 w/ an upgraded turbo and the other mods listed is pretty standard. As most people upgrade to something liek a VF series (subaru specific) turbo, and they just frankly arent that big. My car made 328whp with mods. Most guys stick with the 280-300whp range becuase soon after you begin to blow trannies etc and it becomes not worth it, even if the boxer motor does sound like sex

EDIT: stock wrx's put down 160-170 whp on a dynojet
