I wouldn't spray unless you build the motor. After all the research I did on spraying the WRX, I decided not to because the majority of the WRX's or STi's that spray end up blowing the motor via spinning a rod or rod bearing blowing.. Being that you are still on the stock turbo, then a small shot should be ok......given that plenty of STi's are running the SR 40-50 turbos with no problems. The power increase could be compared to a larger turbo, however be careful........Spray is more addicting then boost.

with the way are mass air is you could easily just bolt up a 50 dry shot and not have to do any tuning. but thats on a stock sti. you may have to lower your boost a bit.

This is probably why the majority of WRX/STi's that get sprayed blow up! It is not recommended to throw spray on any car with just the stock tune......at least get an AFC or something.
