Personally, I would rather keep the boxer layout. 2015 STI motor swap. should have no problem with 400 hp and reliability. Can't imagine it would be any harder to fit than a LSx.

But the point of the LSx swap would be to hit much higher number than 400hp. 1000hp BRZ possibility.
That is a good idea. I read that the WRX and STi will have this motor. The Legacy in Japan has 295hp and 295 torque, you probably already know.
