Question

I would really appreciate some input from Mike [Prodrive] Wood on this but any sensible comments welcomed.
I want FMI on my car.
Currently more than happy with PPP and would really be happy if I can get the intercooler without changing my ECU.
What will the implications be though.
Will I have a serious increase in lag [which could be mapped out with a PL, MoTeC or similar ECU].
I have only seen two other Scoobies [apart from the WRC efforts] with FMI [Firefox and Spence].
I know both these cars are definitely not running with PPP.

Hey uppers..

Personally.. I would suggest an uprated top mount.. virtually the same peroformance of a front mount.. but far easier to install... and cheaper

An uprated cooler will improve things... lowering the intake temps..etc.. but to get the most from it, you will need to reprogram the ECU to extarct the most from the lower charge temps.

But it will help..
