Default Were in london do i take my scooby?????

Just picked up a 94 wrx and need to know were in or near london can i go to get the ball rolling???

As you can see from the name u know what im going for here!

The car came with nothing but a center pipe and back box and a air filter.

So far i have been spending all my money!

I have got....
Sports cat down pipe
New headers and up pipe
Front mount intercooler
And a chip that is ment to get rid of the speed limit and up the bhp form a company called Polar Performance.

The chip i can do but were can i get my stuff fitted well but also not crazy prices as my bank is now running preety slow!

Don't think your going to get anywhere near 400BHP with that lot, be surprised if you gain anything at all!

Oh cmon be fair. Obviously nowhere near the 400 but there will be noticeable gains with that little lot surely.

Hi,

I wouldn't use anyone in London personally, I used to go to Power Engineering but prices started to get . I then saw the light and found Zen Performance - Performance upgrade solutions for Japanese cars

They are one of the most reputable tuners of Subaru's...

They'll be your best bet for fitting that stuff and getting advise on getting as close as you can to your target.

What you need to do is get rid of the chip and get a Power Fc, Paul Blamire (Zen) will do the mapping for you as well, he is very good at what he does.
You also need some bigger injectors, your current car has 380cc injectors, and you will need 550's, as well as a walbro pump.

I would also look to upgrade your turbo to an TD05 20G. Andy.F has an exchange programme, where you can send your old TD05 plus cash for the 20G.

Look to get an uprated clutch to cope with the extra power

With the mods that you have and the above added your realistically looking at about 360ish bhp. The main restriction on power will be your heads, they do not flow as well as the STI ones.

Also once you increase the power be wary of potential gearbox problems which may arise.

You will be more than happy with 350/360 bhp, however if you do want more you will need to look in opening up the engine.

Just give Zen a call....

No problem, best of luck!

Keep your eye out in the for sale area, you may be able to pick up some second hand injectors/pump and turbo cheapish, or you could just exchange your current TD05 for a 20G, Andy only charges £550 if you send him your old one.
You won't be dissapointed with Zen, they will help you out for sure and do it for the cheapest price
