It's had the Performance Prodrive Pack (PPP) added to it -- i.e. ECU, IC Y-pipe, exhaust (and maybe fuel pump?).

I think it's 'supposed' to raise power from the std 265bhp to an 'official' 305. Allegedly.

No ! No ! No !

A Prodrive bug-eye STI Type UK is a cosmetic upgrade only. Different front bumper, rear spoiler and dark blue clocks. ( maybe sills as well ? ).

A PPP kit is a mechanical upgrade to the exhaust and ecu, and maybe an over-priced turbo hose too.

HTH

P.S. A PPP kit is worthless unless you are un-insure-able... IMHO.

Oops, sorry OP (and dunx). Yes, of course, that's right re the UK car.
