Have a 85k miles STi VI. The very last model from the classics. The engine finaly went last week. So I have a choice

1) Standard rebuild - same turbo, same block. Approx 310bhp
2) Standard rebuild - but different Turbo. Approx 360bhp
3) Go for a 2.5 rebuild. But then I think I need a gearbox upgrade to take the torque. Approx 400-440bhp.

Anybod else had a similar decision to make. Anyone advise on what parts I need for (2) and (3)?
