Prodrive Springs

This is one of the best ways to go. The drop is about 1.125" in the front and .875" in the rear. It gets rid of the big gap over the front wheels and gives the car a slight nose down loook. Add STi top hats and Koni inserts too, I did this along with the bushings from the SPT kit and MRT rear sway bar mounts (stock bars) with Kartboy end links. Perfect! Just Perfect! Good Luck!

no where near that.

I have:

uppipe
downpipe
high flow cat center pipe
prodrive muffler
samco IC hoses
and a shiv dyno retune

I made 213 whp on 94 octane gas on a 87degree day with 90% humidity. If I was dynoed in the winter I would probably be in the 220's

My setup is the vishnu stage 1, and i'm right on par with their numbers.

Usual wheel hp for a vishnu stage one, or prodrive stage 3 is 210-230 depending on octane and weather conditions of the dyno day. Crank hp is harder to figure b/c there are so many different number from different dynos.

IF you want 270crank HP a vishnu stage 1 or prodrive stage 3 will do it.

Though it works out to 20%-25% of stock that same math doesn't just keep holding true the higher the numbers. But that's the way the tuners get you to buy their stuff. Whp is the only true measure, even that is shaky depending on the dyno. High 290's at the crank is all your going to get out of stock turbo no matter who is blowing the smoke up you butt.
I don't believe that we exaggerate our hp claims. Stock Stis, on our dyno, put down 215-220 wheel hp. A good running Stage One WRX (healthy turbo, good maintence, good gas, etc,.) puts down ~215 wheel hp under similiar testing conditions. We've had a couple of strange outliners make as much as 225 wheel hp and as little as 200 wheel hp.

Plus, unlike STis, they don't detonate loud enough to alarm the folks next door
