I just found this old Scoobynet drivetrain thread from a link to it from the 22B bbs http://www.scoobynet.co.uk/bbs/threa...D=26962&Page=2 written in 1999, where it was talking about PE's old phase 1 chips and also that the 1999/2000 ECU's could not be cracked for re mapping. But we know it was finally done, which is now the EcuTek re maps of the stock ECU's and I found this quote from a company called BPM in OZ.

quote from BPM

The reason why Subaru got away from this on the 99-00, Sti5 and Sti6 is for the simple fact that they had many problems in Australia, New Zealand and Asia with people not being competent in this upgrade.
The point is I can see tha market opening like it has back here to full EMS systems like LINK, Motech , Autotronic etc. The ECU is complex and requires complex engine management systems.
They do much more than a basic remap that only extracts a bit of HP but does not allow you to take advantage of lifters which is when you are searching for the last elusive HP.
We have a company in Australia called Chiptorque who are renowned chip gurus and they have not been able to crack the Sti 5 and 99 , so if David Power Engineering manages it, I will applaud him personally.

Cheers,

Wrexy.
