Would anyone say a forged Hawkeye is worth more than a non forged? And if so how much more?

Having owned a blob sti and two hawk sti iv not noticed any difference by having Drive by Wire throttle. If anything there's more benefits of having it.
Throttle sensitivity is adjustable via Ecutek and also get Launch control , flat foot shifting and many more features.

Out of interest...
Is that down to throttle response
Or is it that you can not heel and toe in one

I have Ecuteck Race Rom on mine, if you had the choice, why would someone not prefer to have all the features over a standard map puzzles me :0

Way to many extras to turn a blind eye too…

With regards to price a nice clean Hawk STI with let’s say 45k on has to be worth 10K, not all 2.5’s let go, I realize that they have their issues but if there mapped, serviced well and not thrashed every time their driven they will be fine,

We only ever hear of the ones that let go and not the ones that have given trouble free motoring…

As for the shock issues, with the state of the F*****G roads in this country I am surprised they make it to 50K 

A good standard one could be worth more than a **** forged one but like for like with the engine build not being to old then theres got to be at least 1k in it for the forged, maybe even more.

Once a hawk has been forged etc then a suspect that the milage post build the garage where it was done and the spec all play a part.

Theres a few for sale on here at the moment.
