I would just like to publicly thank Simon at Jolly Green Monster for mapping the car today, the last time the car went on the rolling road as bog standard it gave 292bhp.
Well a Cosworth panel filter and milltek 3 inch system with a sports cat later and of course Simon and his laptop I now have a quick spooling 348bhp/380lb torque.

It drives really well and pulls like a train.

Thanks also to Charlie at Surrey rolling road and CJ for fitting the air filter and advice.

 

Is that on a Type UK or JDM Hawkeye?

 

Good work mate. Simon is OK I guess. lol

Will feel nice on the road mate. Enjoy it.

Steve

 

It's a JDM STI MY06.

 

Nice figures!. I had a mate go up there today too with a silver hawkeye. Dont know what figures he got,, but was hoping for similar I think. Was due to put mine on too, but funds didnt allow it

 

That's a very good result

Hopefully I'll get the same from my Spec C

Can you post the graph ?

 

Does Simon jolly green monster travel to u ? Or is he based somewhere ? Has he got a contact number ?

Many thanks


Pete

thanks very much 53wrx !


Pete

 

No problem, nice to meet you Peter and very nice car.

Simon

 

It was at 350bhp 400lb with possibly a little more bhp to go when what turned out to be a coilpack connection came off, the tab to lock it in place is broken, didnt see risking it riggling off again and risking it causing damage for the sake of a few horses so checked it on the road and drove very nice.

Simon

 

That's a good result I would say, great torque figure.

 

good to meet you peter, enjoy the car

 

Simon - i have a 03 standard I think only got the car last fri.would they be any gains/advantage of mapping the car ? I'm not that knowledgable with scoobs.also could u have a look at the car to confirm it's stabdard ? Please me asap

many thanks

Pete

 

Meant to say in previous post car is an 03 sti uk car


Pete

 

Simons advice was to get the exhaust and air filter sorted first and if your car is a Type uk then you would need to do the fuel pump as well, then you should see similar figures to mine after a remap, i think a re-map on it's own will see modest gains but you would not get the full benefit without the other mods.

 

what exhaust mods would you recommend peter ? which air panel filter do u recommend,also which fuel pump ? sorry for all the questions im new to scoobs.i brought the car of my workmates dad,he brought the car from new barely used it,spoiled the car in the years he had it he only done 25,000 miles so wm well happy with my new purchase,yes its a type uk,

also how much for all of the above,and how much for remap ?



Pete

 

What year and model Scoob mate?

 

andy

its a 03 sti type uk in black

Pete

 

Hi Pete.

Some possibilities:

Exhaust
Milltek is ine of the best and what I would go for, but a full system with sports cat is a bit more than £1000. H&S is decent and a couple of hundred less, inc Ninja sports cat.

Fuel Pump
Walbro 255l, about £70 or so

Panel Filter
Green or K&N, about £50.

Remap
Ecutek - About £600. "Open source" is a couple of hundred pounds less. Just make sure you do a search and go with a mapper recommended by others!

Hope that helps.

Andy

 

PS - black ones are always faster!

 

With decat or sports cat downpipe, And cat back exhaust and cossie panel filter you should see around 340bhp and 335lb torque.
Torque slightly less than peters as single scroll 2litre on 03 Sti uk.
Fuel pump worth doing for piece ofmind and cheap.

See for walbro pump and panel filter www.lateralperformance.co.uk

Exhausts - google revolution, hayward and scott. And miltek and take your pick

thanks andy,money isn't an issue as ive got 3 grand to play with where would i get the full miltek system with sports cat fitted ? where would i get the panel filter and fuel pump supplied,fitted ?


also andy after ive got mods done is it advisable to drive off boost untill i go to the mappers(was thinking simon) ?

many thanks for the help again mate your a star


Pete

 

been on simons website bit confused, whats simtek,ecutek ? how do i know which one is in my car ?

Thanks

Pete

 

Simtek is a replacement ecu and not necessary at this planned level although has optopn of antilag and launch control and two map which maybe attractive.


Ecutek is a remap of the standard ecu which would be my recommendation at this level.

Simon

 

thanks for the info simon,think im going to get lateral to supply,fit fuel pump,panel filter,then got to find someone who wil supply,fit full miltek system with sports cat ?

simon is it advisable to drive off boost after mod(s) have been fitted ?


Thanks Again

Pete

 

Hi Pete,

You should be able to buy all the bits from Alyn at:

http://asperformance.com/

As for fitting, shouldn't be too much of a problem for any decent garage, if you say where you are someone else may be able to recommend a specialist in your area.

Enjoy!

Andy

PS - Tell Alyn that "AndytheJock" from Scoobynet recommended him - he might do me a deal next time I buy bits from him!

 

Oh yes, and as for going for ahighly recommended mapper, Simon would certainly be one of those!

 

Or Mark at Lateral of course! (Bang goes my discount at AS! )

 

thanks simon i;ll go with the ecutek then,after ive got the miltek system on,fuel pump,panel filter i'll give u a ring to organise the mapping. would u advise to drive of boost untill mapping is done ? bit worried about engine going pop,heard,read alot on here about engines going pop when they have had mods fitted but no remap


Pete
