Anybody know whats going on, it all seems to have gone deathly quiet in recent weeks.

Dave T-S have you spoken to MW recently?

 

I think their waiting till.......
IM sign it off
or your warrenty runs out LOL

As far as I know they are all ordered by your VIN no. mine has been on order since April with main dealer. Is yours on order ?? no queue jumping now LOL and there is one hell of a waiting list

Tony

ps I think Dave T-S is the man with the finger on the pulse as it were

 

Someone's gone quiet on me......might of course be on hols, will pick up the phone this morning and find out

Be in touch.....

 

Mike IS on holiday this week. I don't want to call him on his mobile while he's on hols so will contact him next week.

In reply to Martin's questions on another thread, should have a clearer idea next week!

 

Hey John

how's it going, no sign of your PPP yet? Jen.

 

All,

Just had some info that a dealers is now to recieved their PPP in four week for trails and then will be signed off

Awaiting further confirmation/news

MartinM (from other thread)
PPP will be a Dealer fitted Prodrive Performance Pack will come with replacement ECU might have induction component and definately an Exhaust component/s. Lots of speculation on BHP figures 310 is the average guess but it's the mid range torque that required IMHO

Sorry.... didn't quite follow that last bit.

are you saying a dealer is getting the ppp and then is going to trial it for 4 weeks and then it should get signed off.... ???

Chris

 

Fitz,
I have been told that Listers will recieve their PPP in about four weeks for their DEMO then soon after they go on general release

Tony

 

310 BHP? Dream on chaps.You're going to pay 2k to have the 15BHP and 20lbs/ft of torque stolen from you returned. LOL.

 

Deep Sighn
The joys of owning a UK Subaru. If not enough gains and tooooooo expensive theres always other options Apexi... Link.....Superchips...Etc,etc. EVO

Tony

Ps, No connection with Listers bar they rob me blind LOL

 

LOL

That is the best description of a PPP I have heard

 

In all seriousness though it will be very interesting to see what the ppp involves and achieves.Even though I d'ont think it will,but if it did provide 310ish BHP the Topgear/Autocar mob are going to vote it topcar for the next 10 years.It'll put Subarus back where they belong(yes I know thats not important etc etc)

 

Tony

I didn't reply to Martin's questions yet as it is all quite simply speculation!

Of course, it might still be on Monday..........

 

At one of the recent STi track days, Mike Wood said the first PPP's would be carried out at Prodrive HQ and not at the dealers to ensure no teething troubles.

D.

 

Dave,
Yes your absoulutely right my Quote "might have induction component and definately an Exhaust component/s" ooooops the definately an Exhaust component was my Assumption and not based on any insider knowledge
If I were a betting man I reckcon its nearly a 99.8% certain that the back box will be replaced IMHO of course
I must remember to engage my brain before opening my keyboard LOL
Tony

 

Tony

Wasn't particularly knocking you, much speculation from others too

Of course, its all that Mike "I couldn't possibly comment" Wood's fault for not telling us LOL.....

 

Dave,
No problem my friend I have to learn to tread on rice paper around these forums you nkow what I mean my enthusiasm exceeds my Knowledge

Let me know how you get on Monday

Tony

 

Ummmmmmmm ... can't wait

 

Just fit a MY01 PPP chip and you can have 245bhp rather than 265bhp

Just look how long it took for the MY01 PPP it takes time, effort and testing before they are going to let people loose with a new chip. Imagine the warranty claims if they all went bang.

 

I am getting a little impatient, Hope Subaru/Prodrive get it online soon.


Andy

 

Wonder if this all has anything to do with the car I pick up in 2 weeks time. STi 7 Prodrive exhaust dealer says it has 300ish bhp, front,rear struts air filter changed etc etc

I wonder.

I can only hope.

Hawkeye

 

Do you no what???? it's getting so close now my bank manager is crying LOL

Tony

PPP might have Front mounted Intercooler, Exhaust, ECU, Squencial gearbox and 300 Bhp at each wheel and cost £108 + vat and plus a small dealer Labour charge of £200,000
or
It will be £2K and you'll get a Drivers side Wiper Blade and a Sticker for the spoiler and flick the switch on the ECU from 261Bhp to 320Bhp. LOL

Tony

 

My dealer is saying end of this month and 325bhp!!!!!
Steve

 

He having a larf, right ????

 

I really dont know but he says he has driven the prodrive test car and that was what it was giving,come on prodrive spill the beans
Steve

 

Is that Lancasters by any chance ?

Reason for asking is that the Pangbourne branch is quite near to me so might pop in and ask about it this weekend.

Don't suppose Mr Dealer mentioned any details, like how much etc..etc...

Chris

 

Lancaster Sevenoaks--Says price between 1600 and 2000
Steve

 

cheers.....

 

i got my Prodrive from Lancasters and that's what they told me -
put my order in when ordered the car so shouldn't be long hopefully- then i'll get the excitement that i miss from my P1

Andy

 

I'm sure there are plenty more owners on here (other than myself), who have driven a PPP equipped STi, and probably have a very good idea of what it will comprise in terms of parts, but noly a sketchy idea of price.

Unfortunately, nothing can be confirmed until the official announcement, as it is all subject to change....

John
