I have a 1996 UK with PDrive chip and back box PLUS tsl down pipe and a blitz cone filter and forge d/v and VERY upgraded brakes its running 243Bhp whats next to improve Bhp SAFELY ISSH thanks in advance hopefully ha alan

 

Mmmmm PPP & Dawes aren't very happy, I believe. Well, unless you're a good gambler

 

its only a idea all suggestens VERY welcome just for a few more Bhp and not a lot of gambleing with my toy thats what wife calls it lol cheers alan

 

Remove cone, remove dv, remove PPP chip and sell for £400 ish

Buy a dawes and a tek 2 ECU for £600 and you will have a safe 280 bhp.

MB the tec ECU is for the 1997 plus cars i think if i could go somewere tomorrow and they could do that to mine id be there i did not think it was that easy thanks anyway alan

 

i thought the tek's were for MY99 or newer - personally

 

Oops, didn't notice the year of the car

My old 96 made 260 with a full decat and cone filter. Has a bigger turbo than the 97> so responds better to mods

Other than the ECUTEK, there are other chips available, but they are more pricey. DONT get a superchip.

Get a Scooby Ecu..god investment for the money you spend.
I just had a friend fit one to his MY95..and it works really nice

He is very happy with it.., if your in UK you can get some more live help with the mapping.. I think...

Cheers

is a scooby ECU better than a pro drive ECU cheers all

 

jees has anyone answered your question yet !!!??? lolol
i got a my99 scooby, with ppp, magnex st8 through decat centre, ggr sports cat downpipe AND yup dawes. apparently the ppp ecu cut point is well beyond 18psi my dawes is set at 16.5 psi which gives me a bit more than the ppp around 15.7 psi plus there is plenty of room for the ppp ecu to cut if it spikes etc, i think also that the j banks was running a ppp with dawes before he went ecutek?!!
hope that helps
paul
ps never spiked, overboosted as yet

 

whot Bhp gains will this dawes device give

 

i never looked into the bhp figures themselves, the turbo picks up faster at less revs, so that gives you more acceleration
bhp ??? dont know but it feels a hell of allot faster
paul

 

paul have you got a pro drive b/b on yours cheers alan

 

this is how it went,
first got the car ppp'd, so that was the prodrive decat centre and the prodrive backbox aswell as the ecu etc.
second had a quickshift fitted
third had eibachs put on
fourth had a ggr sports cat downpipe put on and a magnex st8 through centre
finally got the dawes

 

David Wallis could you advise ??? or do out thats yorkshire that is thanks alan

 

NICEBLOKE 35 did not know decat centre was part of PD

 

yup they remove the middle cat and replace it with a decat centre with just a resonator, but the ppp varies with diff year scoobs

 

YUB thanks for input alan STILL trying for a few more BHP lol

 

hey york you aint tooo far from me in middlesbrough !!! i sometimes take my car to pullyns

jamie my e mails down whats your phone number cheers alan

 

jamie give us a number

 

I don't like putting the number up on here but please get it off www.j-w-racing.com

 

Hey you guys, a Dawes device is great for the money. Believe me, I had two from Jamie for two different cars I owned. They seems to work better with the older car, from what I've seen. Make sure you get a AFM though.....For safety sake

Cheers Phill C

PS No connection with Jamie, just bought a few things from him and had an excellent service
