I know I've an Impreza and it's a Legacy meeting, BUT....
What time of day are we talking here - given that I live within 2 miles of the place, I should show my face really - but only after you've all eaten

Jonto,
Just remember to get into the reserved parking slot at the pub you will need 2 x turbo's under your bonnet?
Now I have heard that you haven't even got 200 bhp, let alone two turbo's

Jonto,
My two readings at Nobles are
With centre cat in Power 270 and 167 at the wheels, 234 torque
with de cat power 267 and 171 at wheels, 246 torque
so I was gutted not to get more power.
Readings do vary and turbo's effected by the weather etc, etc.

Jonto,
Yes a little strange, the explanation was that the ecu was cutting boost at 1.2 bar on the secondary turbo. The de-cat in effect meant that the secondary was running through un-restricted with a larger diameter pipe and the free flow super dragger on the back = overboost.
However saying that the Legacy does react differently to theImp. to tuning but nobody in the UK tuning scene knows that.

At the last Noble RR day I got 195bhp@wheels (~260 at the fly, should be 276bhp) but only showing 1.0bar on the rollers 
but I had 1.2bar on the road in 4th on teh way home both off my gauges. 20% more boost on the road probably means its factory figures are about right or slightly more . Gear ratios are funny though so that may have soemthing to do with it, ie. not allowing the boost to build but the flip side is that the transmission losses are less. Just what I heard I dont know really its all pub talk to me .
Only performance mods are to the exhaust TSL decat centre and scoobysport BB, everything else is cosmetic. Done a few more miles and it seems to have loosened up a bit more (now heading to 9K miles) and seems quicker but that might be just in the mind after driving the runabout more in the salt and ice.

In answer to both, we can be at the pub from 1200 noon, so I'll be there then. I would expect most peeps to stay all day or until dark, which would be 6pm. Also consider that some are travelling a long way i.e. Scotland and London, South.
How the hell did you blow a piston on the rollers?
That sounds very depressing. Mind you mines going in shortly for piston slap and head gasket, that'll be 1k thank you.
More info on the main post soon,
Tim
