Default After the PPP?

OK, so I've now had my 05 STI UK for 5 weeks. I had already paid the garage £1500 for the upgrade, then 2 weeks ago, it was done on the saturday........I haven't stop smiling since 8-)

How do I get more power now I've gone the Prodrive route?

Why did you bother with the PPP when you now want more power so soon?
For another £500 on top of what you paid, you could have been looking at 330/340 bhp from the likes of TSL, Powerstation etc.

Have another remap (custom) that is not generic, but for your car. Will cost about another £500, but will undo the work you've done by going the PD route. ie. warranty. Mappers who get mentioned alot for good work is AndyF & BobR, although there are quite a lot more. Depends on where you are and how far you wanna travel.

But people go the PPP route to retain warranty and increase sale value, and normally stay at that stage of modification. If wanting more power, then people dodge the PPP, as it's expensive for what it is really.

most Tuning packages cost less than PPP not more so john had a good point mate Y PPP
you could go the remap route but I don’t think it will give significant gains (however I do believe that a custom map is much better that’s why I went to ZEN )

your only other opinion to dump the warranty and go for a new turbo from that point the sky is your limit or budget…..

Custom re-map will get you 340 bhp if you're lucky, more is easy just costs money...
