Hi Everyone,

I have just bought a second hand jap import 04 plate WRX... UK spec - I need to know if Subaru UK will install a PPP kit or do I have to go elsewhere?

Scuzz

 

there would be no point on the PPP for an import in my opinion
Take it to TSL Motorsport for their 333 package or something similar

I believe you have to go to.......Japan.

IIRC PPP can only be installed in the country of origin - though it may be different for EU Parallel Imports.

Mines an import - had the downpipe Cat removed, STi panel filter and TEK 3 Map. Cheaper and I would imagine as good if not better than a PPP. Plus it's now mapped for UK fuel which is one less thing to worry about.

Obviously you wouldn't do it to a UK one under warranty but you don't have that problem.

 

Isn't that for the STi only? Not sure it would be that easy to get a WRX to that kind of power.

 

sorry i misread, that applies to the sti.. but tsl do a similar kit for the WRX just not 333

 

Seeing as the vehicle needs to be re-mapped to suit UK fuel, then an ECU-Tek is the answer. Especially so when you consider that the JDM cars has a quoted output (250PS) approaching what the PPP is claimed to deliver anyway.....

Having re-read the original post; you cant get a UK-Spec Japanese import can you?

 

I missed that to!

You need to confirm exactly what you have to get the correct advice.... But it can be quite confusing. Mines a Type Euro 20K......... whatever that means. Definitely a Jap import though.

 

Been into my local dealer enquiring about PPP earlier today mate, and the Service Manager mentioned, in passing, that Subaru will not supply a PPP for any customer with an Import.

Sorry to rain on your parade mate, but that`s exactly what I was told.

My dealer is Riding and Co., in Preston, Lancs, BTW.
