    New to the WRX world

    Well, I just bought my first WRX. Been a Subaru owner for a few years, and one of my best friends is an STi owner. I am here to soak up knowledge. I am pretty much a noob in the car world. Normally, i fix my cars with my wallet.

    I bought a 2002 Impreza WRX, silver colored, with black rims.



    Like I said, I am a noob, and won't be able to drive it for a couple more months, until I get home from Iraq.

    It has these mods already installed.

    STi Turbo VF39
    850 Injectors
    Turbo X5 Engine Management
    Large Hyperflow Top Mount Intercooler
    Turbo Back Manaflow Exhaust.

    Any idea what this might be gaining me WHP - wise?

    Welcome! I am no genie, but if I was... I would throw out around 260-280 WHP? I could very well be off but that's what I would say. Be safe!

    I would guess that's pretty close. Welcome! Lovin the bugeye. You picked a great place to ask questions and gather some information. Good luck with it!

    Thanks for the replies!

    Another question...what does "Turbo X5 Engine Management" mean? I can't find much, my Google-fu is weak on this subject. Thanks
