If you wanted to try reach 400hp why didn't you purchase a STi that has a stronger block (ej257) as opposed to the ej255 and go from there?

Hope you have 15-20k put aside...

Ambitious to say the least, but have a look at some of the driveway threads to get an idea of what you can get for what money you are willing to spend.

Seems like a lot of effort to justify a new intercooler.

Yeah, upgrading to a tmic should bring you up to 300kw easy. Don't bother with the exhaust/tune, that's just for fools.
