I love my WRX but have no problem fitting STi bits to it.

Shaunby 300

Just to summarise and draw a conclusion to this thread, wrx is best value for money and blod wrx ppp is the fastest 0-60 ( the one that counts) subaru impreza made to date.

Lol..
All in jest, no tears now.. lol.

I live next door to a guy that did all the Subaru finance at the local dealers and he said, how many miles will you be doing, I said 25k a year, so he said you'll be better with the W R X with the PPP pack because you will have similar power to the standard STI but you will be able to walk when you get out. I bought the WRX

Then I got an STI

Praise the lord for 6 speed, Brembos and AVCS!!!

Oh yeah ages ago. Why let that stop an argument tho lol. The sti is the better car. Subaru built it that way. The end

Bearing in mind I have the wrx......sti's are obviously the better car. Better internals, better turbo, stronger gearbox and better brakes. No argument to be had.

One thing about newage gearboxes though, I thought the 350 I put through my 05 wrx would be borrowed time but alyn at as performance said the older 5 speeds would die at this but the newer boxes can take more abuse.......but the rods are only good for 380 on a standard wrx so no gain really lol

my entry level old Nreg WRX pushed a E6 tommy mak up the road last nite so i coudnt give a **** if i have pink badges!!! pmsl pow pow

I wish I had these magical add ons

A tuner told me several week ago that the WRX heads can't handle power over 330bhp, what it comes down to is that there are no real experts on the WRX/WRX STI.

Tuners and self professed STI owning tuning experts claim the TDO4 can produce anything from 260-310!! WRX TMIC 280-360 WRX Injectors 280-330 Fuel pump 250-320!

AET wouldn't fit me a VF35 because they said I'd need STI pinks and STI TMIC, BS.

The newage WRX is a wrecking machine and Subaru fitted the catted up-pipe to tame it.

RoyPinhey

All joking aside I MUCH preferred my bugeye wrx to drive than my type r. So smooth and refined . . then again it hadnt been tuned and stripped out with racing harnesses in

What do they know?? Should just go ahead and do it!!!

I dare you!!!












































Infact, I double dare you!!!!

RS_Matt

So a step up from 225 to 280 running circa 1.2 bar would have been dangerous?

ive said it before and ill say it again what a fckuing *****, you dont need bigger injectors for a bigger turbo just run it lean it will be ok after all its the bullet proof wrx

You are making yourself look more stupid with every post....

RS_Matt

I put my 225bhp WRX against my outgoing 261bhp EV0 4, and the WRX was considerably faster, it also felt just as fast as my mates 280bhp Classic WRX. The EVO had a worn exhaust valve diagnosed by NR Autosport but a trip to TRL sorted the fueling out so the car was running pretty sweet considering.

My standard WRX looked bloody awful though.

amazing isnt it, i thought he had peaked earlier in his stupidity but no he goes on.............

im waiting for the self learning ecu claim and he has a full house

Dude, you're ******* loko!

RS_Matt

Every post in every STI V WRX thread?

So it's only ok for the arrogant STI owners to be frivolous?

RS_Matt

Right joking aside lads, the WRX ECU is a very solid performer up to 200bhp, "does the last 25bhp come from a hybrid source?" I hear you scream...




























...peddle power.

V2 JDM GC8 WRX's don't really qualify for this argument mate. firstly they come better spec'd from factory being a proper Impreza and secondly they were pretty much the same Spec anyway You would need to compare the UK2000 with it's tiny TD04

iTrader: (16)

So your WRX is quicker then a Evo with worn exhaust valves!!! Brilliant mate


My scooby is quicker then a Bugatti Veyron when its got a flat tyre and the ecu shut down and gone into limp home mode!!!

jayallen

iTrader: (31)

Good advice if you ask me, what's the point of fitting a bigger turbo if you don't have the mods to support it...

So now a Newage WRX running 225bhp feels as fast as a 280bhp classic....As I said, you're loko

Would love to see Matt bring his car to Santa Pod or TotB and see how mega that WRX is...

RS Matt, your WRX you should just fit a Billet GT35 and be done with it!! PPP Ecu should learn itself and you should see 600bhp in a instant!! These tuners try ripping you off saying that you need a engine rebuild, and injectors, and a remap etc but we all know all it needs is a turbo change
