Google and being willing to spend the time to research and discuss engine modifications is all you'll need.

Only outlay would possibly be an internet connection.

That would breach the Subaru dealer agreement.
Doesn't mean one Saturday night. Him and mates can't pull the engine out....... Where it happens doesn't matter. If it happens to be at a dealer party on. Not like they aren't dodgey enough to start with.

LOL, I'll hold my tongue this time. But I seriously doubt the foreman or service manager will let it happen.

I have heard of lots of mech's doing cashies at dealerships in their own time.

Looks like handling is the next step, I recently put a new set of tyres on the wrx, Toyo R1R and when they heat up, they get real sticky, just to much body roll. Looks like coilovers is the way to go and then brakes.

Are the Sti brakes worth getting or should go with a aftermarket brembo kit or similar?

If I were you... I'd be dam happy with that 288 esp since its not even a STi

Can someone tell me how much MY10 wrxs are doing stock atw ?
Stock wrx my10 come out with 195kw at motor, and 140kw at wheels, according to maximum motor sport
