Re: My new monster
It's hard to say. None of the things you mentioned are going to give monumental increases in hp. If the car is not tuned properly, it may be making less power than when it rolled off the lot in '02. And, for heaven's sake. Put a cat on the car. Why do people remove them? Your car is no longer road legal. Who cares how much power it is making. I doubt the previous owner would be held responsible unless they provided a warranty.
Why did you not know about the mods in the first place? To most people, these are a complete turnoff and could signal the early demise of your new baby. If it were me, I would take it to a mechanic just to be sure that the mods aren't doing any damage to the motor as they are setup. Just to be safe. Anybody that has a BOV on a WRX would probably be willing to pump 40 psi into it because more is always better.
Edit. If you got a great deal on the car, disregard everything I have written except for the part about the cat.
