True but Andy usually takes you to a motorway slip road that heads uphill, it is no worse than that.

Get weighed in the morning too so he can give you a proper Delta Dash readout and take all your excess rubbish out of the car!

Thx bushwarrior !!!!! Have tried him a few times tonight but cant get an answer. Will try tomorrow again. Looking forward to the experience. Have had another Subaru mapped by Bob Rawle before and it certainly makes quite a difference. I have a full milltek fitted to my car at present but am considering a set of unequal length Gt Spec Gen II headers before Andy maps the car. Just so undecided about them. Dont suppose any of you guys here have a set fitted that I could hear before I buy ????

No harm done in asking !!!!!

Also for any of you that have fitted NGK PFR7B spark plugs did Andy happen to tell you what to set the gap at ???????

Cheers guys !!!!

Ok so as you guys know i was due at an Andy.F mapping session at murry cars and the car is up from 226 bhp to 280 bhp and from 236 ft lb or torque to 331 ft lb. I want to thank performance subaru for preparing the car,andy f for doing a great map and paul for arranging the session.

Any one who is hesitant about mapping with such a reputable tuners like andy forest or pat herbon, these guys do a professional job and at no stage did i feel my car was under any strain and if im saying that being as fussy as i am itll be the truth.

You too Scoobboy.

Sorry bushiwarrior - too early for me I'm afraid.

Good to meet you too Paul, thanks for the coffee and organising this.

My bragging rights are now 337 bhp with 324 lb ft torque

Dual maps - cool.

Andy - what can I say.
Very down to earth person - and a bit clever too

Overall toughts.
Wasn't really sure what to expect, read the results of 2 other MY05 PPP's STI's on the rollers at the AI place and both exceded the Prodrive quoted figures (Brocks & AdamNI I think).

But, guys the difference between what I had previously(PPP) and now is pretty much night and day.

Previously my thoughts were that nothing much happens until after 3,500rpm(closer to 4,000rpm) and then its sort of runs out of puff after 5,500rpm which doesn't really give you much of a band

Now, it pulls very strongly from 2,700rpm until 6,500rpm
I don't really think there's any point reving it further - best just grab another gear instead.
It much more driveable generally.
e.g previously you may have needed to drop down a gear for some reason whereas now you can just leave it alone.

Another thing - the amount of dirty looks I got yesterday from other drivers was unreal.

Driving up dual carriage way holding 3Krpm in 4th
Other cars are just about to overtake, then you boot it from 3K to 5K then brake back down to 3K.
The other cars start to catch up and then the whole process starts again.
But when they do actually overtake you can see it in their eyes looking at you and thinking "What the **** are you doing"

Shaun
