Would the 2.5L 257 Motor, with the head work, bottom end work, cams, exhaust, fuel pump, injectors and tune be fairly bullet proof at 450hp ? im more worried about reliability then expense as id rather pay more now and it be reliable then less now and it breaking down and costing a fortune later.....
Anyone got any idea how much this cost me ?

No engine is bullet proof mate. A closed deck 257 will be strong but not unbreakable especially at 450hp. You would need to run a min of 1.8 bar to achieve this correct me if I am wrong.
I would expect much change from 30/35k to do it properly and to run the setup that will acheive 450hp. You don't need 450hp in a Subaru it's serious overkill. How did you come to the figure of 450hp?
