We are running a 2010 ST3 with only a dreamscience map on it and thats at 263 at the moment. Once its out of warranty I have a full 3" Mongoose system and Airtec intercooler to go on it, unsure of the filter yet though.

Good little cars, sound ace and handle well. The missus uses ours around the doors and averages 19 to the gallon!!!!
I don't use it to commute anyway... a good thing by the sounds of it. Currently have an old ST170 and that's terrible on fuel. I thought the ST would be around the same if cruising on a decent map... I could be wrong.

That sounds good. I'd definitely be happy with something in the region of 300. Not going to get much power down in the wet, but what can you do!
