Feel free to pop round tomorow

 

he will be to busy enjoying his new power hike

 

Got the car back yesterday and firstly if like to thank Paul of pr developments and Duncan I'd recommend these 2 to anyone both top blokes and extremely helpful

So to the good stuff after the car had a complete service including oil pump, water pump, cambelt, oil filter, spark plugs the car pulled a impressive 333bhp and 340ft lbs


Changed my spec slightly
Sti tmic
Sti manifold
VF35
650cc injectors
Sti decat up pipe
Induction kit
Hrc 255 fuel pump
Japspeed sports cat
Japspeed exhaust system
Eibach springs (30mm drop)


Still a few things to do hopefully will have a set of black mud flaps by end of the month then it will be front splitter, Sti scoop, Sti spoiler

Still running standard brakes atm so more than likely will upgrade to brembos within next few months and just to be safe a new clutch, also may go for a 3" decat system after my mot

cough cough thanks to me for putting you in touch with paul......cough cough

just dropped my car off at pauls for a mock-fitting of the fmic before it goes off for paintwork next week,paul asked if you were happy with it

 

I haven't had change to give it a good drive yet irl do that at the weekend, but so far I love it mate couldn't be happier with it just gutted I forgot to ask for pops and bangs lol

 

Well done fella, great result you have there. It must pull like a absolute demon now.
Phil

 

They are some cracking results there fella

 

Pulls like a train phil

I was well happy 330 is what I was hoping for before it went in and got a shock when it pulled that much torque wasn't expecting that much

 

Your engine is obviously in tip top condition. Great when it all comes together

 

Duncan said engine was in great condition good to know when I get bored

 

Not much has happened since it's been mapped just been enjoying it but to complete the car still needs a decent brake set up but only drive it at weekends and occasionally some nights so that will be done soon but not in a big rush

Decided to start styling it now got a set of black mudflaps on there way then I've decided it needs a Sti spoiler Sti scoop and a front splitter to complete the look

Then after my mot I may go full decat haven't decided yet

So after 7 years I thought I’d revive this thread as a lot has changed lol

In them 7 years my original engine decided to let go so it was decided to go with a semi closed sti engine and fully forge it matched with some Jdm Avcs heads, 1000c injectors with a set of Fuji racing fuel rails, rcm headers and a trick up pipe then came the decision with the turbo cut a long story short of running a laggy turbo for about 4 years I’ll get you to where I am currently today

In the last few days I’ve recently picked up my car this is currently how it is today

Ive had a 6 speed fitted
Had the manifold reversed
New RCMPT07 turbo fitted
Tein coilovers fitted

Had Bob Rawle map it on Friday and I was shocked at the results I’m not one for chasing figures now a days but I was expecting around 450bhp

It made a strong 485 bhp with 432 lbft at 1.5 bar thing is a animal

Have a few plans for her just to tidy her up abit she needs a new carpet and a new steering wheel and a few other little bits and bobs doing and after 9 years of ownership I might finally be happy with her haha

Not bad for a 16 year old WRX

 

great stuff sam, the car has come along way since you had it mapped @ rcm all the way back in 2013 when i was there with you. i still miss the sound of my old silver one,i never could replicate the sound on my other 2 imprezas. keep up the good work buddy

 

Cheer man yeah I’ve got some further plans for her but just going to enjoy her for abit now will try and keep this thread updated with any changes I make, it’s come so far in the 9 years crazy
