yest stock injectors and stock em. for both if us actualy. phil has more mods suspension and driveline loss wise but we both have the same basic power adders.
if you have perfect power walk over to the motor you pulled out of the imprezza and grab the fuel rails. get some usdm sti injectors and start tuning. get a 16g and turn up the boost, 18-22 psi. youll be killing stock sti;s

That is kinda what I wanted to hear.
Although as a (past) big proponent of the perfect power, I may change to something else, Emanage maybe.

i was going to get an autronic. the guys at EFI university went through the pinouts and said that the one for (version 3-4 i think) wrx was the same pinout as a legacy turbo. but they said that the ignition system was different and wouldnt work. So in my depression, the guys at rallitek saved me with the perfect power. my big problem with the perfect power isnt really with the PP itself. And I fully understand that my car isnt tuned by sean, but when I have gone through the wiring, sent the diagrams I have made off to be checked, rechecked the wiring and know that it is perfect, it makes you angry when it doesnt work like it is supposed to. then the backtracking on how something is supposed to work, then the admital (?) that no it doesnt really work that way you need this and this.
The thing that bugs me the most is that when I would ask a "hard" question or share my input with my experience with the product on a "public" forum, it would magically dissappear.
We will see if the ECU i bought off Matt helps.

It may not be that bad. Right now with all of my other problems, I am fairly jaded, and that particular company has rubbed me wrongly a few times. They sent all 3 of my orders to a different county, which 2 days extra. ok the first time, ridiculous the 2nd and 3rd.
If you are going to tune with the perfect power, get a wide band, they admitted to me that the AF meter on the pp isnt very accurate.

I know Sean at Rallitek. I visit there every few days (I drive by it all the time) and am friends with Kelly (Rallitek).
So I don't think you were getting screwed on purpose. Not to say you weren't getting fucked, but not with malice of forethought.
I rode in their first RS-T kit install while Sean was tuning it with the Perfect Power. And he spent ALOT of time tuning it so he does believe in the product.
But I also agree there could be complications, mainly due to the fact of our pre-nissan electronics.

I'm not pissed at them, kinda dissapointed. Sean spent alot of time on the phone with me and I appreciate it. And other than sending my stuff to the wrong address the shipping was really quick.
I got a new 3 bar MAP sensor from MSD. and I am gonna see if that along with the ECu I bought from Matt monson (re"clocked" 1.8L ECU with 7000rpm rev limiter!) will fix the horrible(!) Buck that happens right at 3000rpm and max load(well anything over 3/8 throttle)

but realistically, I want something that will perform on par or better than an STi. It should be a little easier since my weight is somuch less. I think 220whp and some good lowend torque would be fan-friggin-tastic!
Mark R. put down 470 something whp on the MAC autosports dyno recently.

Your putting some power down too, right? Dont you have the t3/t4 turbo or something. Any numbers on yours?
470whp i cant conceive.

Yeh, i have a garrett t3/t4 on mine but haven't had it dynoed since the stock turbo. I guess when the knock sensor is removed it retards timing at least 3 degrees. So even that setup wasn't at 100%.
Mark is running a 2.5 sti block with 2.5L sohc heads. With a shwitzer turbo.
