I don't have the code yet as previous owner didn't have it and I only just got the v5 so haven't had time to nip up to Subaru yet to get the code

No, you won't need the code.
the battery has been changed numerous times on mine and i've never needed it.

UK300 were bugeyes (~2001) so different to your WRX300. The bugeye cars had an extra board added to the ECU by Prodrive to manage boost control (crudely
) as part of the PPP. This would have been removed if the car as remapped again so the original ECU could manage the boost again.
You won't have this on a blobeye as Prodrive changed the way they did it in approx 2003 - your ECU can be mapped as normal.
