Hit a couple of snags today, injectors were fowling AVCS solenoids, solved by spinning injectors and machining some material off of caps.
Also pesky standard FPR is fowling on a plug, Richard from East Kent Subaru will be having a new piece welded in to extend the fuel line. This will be a temporary solution to get the car ready for mapping.
CDF billet fuel rails coming soon I guess.

After a little bit of electronic jiggey pokery by JGM, we got the car running today, and had a very basic map, after a few minor teething issues.
Even running actuator pressure, the car feels like its flying already. I can only imagine what this gonna feel like fully cranked up.
Roll on Wednesday.

Mapped today, had a couple of issues today, AVCS solenoid plug needs attention, so vvt has been turned off for now, also it seems like the 15 year old stock fuel pressure regulator isn't quite up to the job.
Still managed 430 BHP though, and the car feels absolutely mental.
On with the next batch of mods...
CDF billet fuel rails
AN6 fittings,
Braided parallel fuel lines
Adjustable fuel pressure regulator.
Then some more mapping.

Hopefully should be fitting my replacement SWRD fuel pump, (as its looking very likely the existing one is failing) Hence the injectors maxing out at 430 BHP (900cc) new fuel rails and Fuelab FPR on route also.
