Another vote for Duncan
Knowledgeable, informative, and a dyed-in-the-wool petrol head.

 

No sorry that one looks horrid and really restrictive.

Look for one with an open bell mouth design like this:

(about half way down the page)

Std subaru turbo gaskets are the best.

 

Thanks for the advice m8, will get that bought i think and see if i can get it fitted and let you sort the map out for me!!

 

Hi duncan, how does this one look??

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/SUBARU-IMPREZA...es_CarParts_SM

Bit cheaper and comes with the gaskets!!

Let me know what ya think?

Thanks again

 

I wonder if there's anyone out there that's tried a few of the top mappers? ie Simon, Duncan, Andy, Bob, Paul and Pat etc

Would be interesting to get them altogether with the same car, same day, same rollers and see what they did and (more importantly) how the car drove.

I'm sure these guys have all got to a certain level that would mean the results would be similar. Just something I was thinking about the other day.

I've used Simon twice for mapping and he's helped me out a couple of times (mapping aside) I've recommended him to a few people as I was happy with his skills plus he's a nice guy (Simon, can I borrow an avcs solenoid please lol)

I'm sure Duncan will do you proud, he has a good reputation.

 

Cant wait to have it done, need the decat pipe first tho tut!!

 

That looks fine.

Doubt whether the gaskets are up to it though so pick up a std subaru gasket from your main dealer. The fibre gasket they tend to supply with these just blows through with any kind of heat/pressure.

 

It would be an interesting exercise for sure.

 

sorry for the hijack but can you map my00 classic full decat and panel filter

 

Only if you fit a Simtek or Syvecs ecu.

Other than that your only option is an ecutek dealer such as Simon (JGM) or Paul at Zen.

 

Cheers for advice duncan, have ordered that pipe for £99, any idea where i can get gaskets from if ones with it are no good as i dont have a Subaru dealer local to me!!

Are some on ebay but i dont want to buy em if they are no good!!

Cheers
SEE YOU SOON......

 

Is the decat downpipe a direct replacement, eg, bolt off and bolt new one straight in??

Or does anything else have to be done before or after??

Cheers

 

cheers

 

Can highly Recommend Duncan and as said Join up on Scooby city and you will see he has mapped most of the cars on the site, Will hopefully be booking in again to see Duncan again after Christmas

 

Yep bolt off bolt on.

New gaskets from Lateral or RCM perhaps?

 

Lateral?? RCM- Roger clark motorsport??? didngt have any on site, seen some genuine downpipe gaskets on ebay, might get one of them as its the most awkward to get at i suppose!!

Least i can get under the car to change where it meets the middle section if i need to!!

Look forward to seeing you duncan

 

Would this be ay good??

Cheers for any advice!!

 

there u go on rcm

http://www.rogerclarkmotorsport.co.u...?productID=647

just buy oe then u can't go wrong!!!!

 

hey guys iv been lukin at some of the figures duncan has mapped on his site, compared to other mappers his tq/hp range is big e.g. 365 hp 284 tq, where as some other mappers the hp/tq figure range is minimal tsl 333hp 335 tq... etc. is this down to the type of remap program used?

 

duncans mapped loads of cars, his site only has a small selection, some engines produce more than others.. but whatever figures u get after duncans tweak, u'll be happy! trust me!

 

Well he has mapped mine and its great, cant recommend him enough.TOP BLOKE...

 

Finally got mine on the rollers yesterday and Ducans words were he'd be surprised if it wasn't 430 bhp and guess what 429.7 i want a refund lol

Seriously though a great bloke and mapper Thanks again!!!
