Im guessing more like 215-225 to the wheels area with that maddness stage 4 upgrade. Maddness claims 265 at the crank for those mods:

I like how it lists "Works injectors." Has anyone run even close to 300hp with 380's?

I don't want to start anything, but don't we usually figure in about a 15% drivetrain loss with our cars? That would make it ~255WHP...just want to help clear things up...and I don't think that that guy is near his claims anyways.

Pretty much. A bone stock STi, rated at 300hp, will put from 225-240 at all 4 depending on the dyno and ambient conditions. The average seems to be 227-235 but some have seen more or less.

Notice that it is an "estimated" 300hp that is advertised. Using that standard for calibration, they can advertise anything they want to.

Were the 19" wheels needed to accommodate the brakes?
