you can get an Sti and not afford to mod it and be like every other Sti out there, or you can take a little time with your car and make it YOURS. Doing the work on it and making it unique makes it even more enjoyable to drive and more satifying if you happen to go race and smoke somebody
as to your actual question, i would say sort of.
you can get 350hp out of a vf34 and some well planned mods. Your engine bay doesnt even have to look very modded if you dont want it to.
Things in cars break, add more power and they tend to break more. As long as you dont abuse your car the power should be fine, but if you are doing 7k clutch dumps and over revving you engine on every shift the power probably wont be reliable.

Here is an effective and reliable way to get to 350-400hp.
-VF34 - VF22 Turbo (subarureview.com would be the best to explain those)
-STi Injectors
-Walbro Fuel Pump
-Perrin Fuel Rails (again with the subarureview.com)
-Full Free Flow Exhaust
And if you really feel the need to go that extra few HP, get a built engine from AXXIS Engineering. They know what they are doing.
Also I don't know where you are located but if you are near the Bay Area, CA then come by BP Performance in Pleasanton and we can start getting stuff for you and putting it on. Cheers and good luck.
