The car was mapped by wallace performance and at the last rolling road day your club had at DASTEK it produced 300bhp, i was there & saw it for my own eyes.
It can be done, but only a few have ever

I'd be tempted if it was me.

550cc PINK injectors
TD05 18g
STi TMIC
Get hold of a STi up-pipe or after market de-cat.

With remap with JGM under a £1000 easy.
I would say go VF35 or VF34 but for the sake of it I'd go 18g.


If you would rather go VF35/34 route then I cannot see why making 330bhp and 310lbft .

Eventually yes, certainly you are racking up expenditure for the future in that department.

If you are certain you don't want more than 300, stick with the WRX injectors and just get as much as you can with the fueling available.

Get the 550cc injectors bud. Trust me it will be worth it.

I think your regret not changing and paying out for another mapping session when you wish you'd added the 550cc's.

What air filter you going for? Best ones I've used and swear by are the JR panel filters and the Green Filters.


Also regards fitting etc. Where abouts are you again mate? Could kill two birds and get Simon to Map it at Surrey Rolling Road too.

Mate,

I know a few people in the surrey area who could do all the fitting for you in a day leaving you to get it on the rollers the following day etc if you wish to take that route.
Would mean you maybe staying in a hotel / b&b for one night though.

Let me know.

STi on is also good. I just found that that the JR and Green seem to breath better. Ypu can hear it in the air box too.

Steve

I was also there and can verify the car did make 300bhp on a TD04. All the other cars made expected figures on the same RR, think the odd car can make more power than the spec suggests.
