I agree with the rest, above 350 is really pushing the limits of the motor. Its been done before. But then again I know people who have blown it up on a stock turbo with under 250awhp.

Do the 04-05 have a different block variant, not a 205? I don't remember my WRX trivia..
I wish they'd put the 207s in everything and call it good..
