i have had a full decat system on my MY2000. what do i do next. should i have it chipped or the engine remapped. if so who do i speak to and where is best to go to. bit worried about engine reliability

 

No need to worry about reliability. First off I'd suggest you get a boost gauge and Knocklink. Then consider a 2nd hand PPP ecu (safe enough for Subaru to still provide warranty cover when purchased as the whole package. Although not applicable in this case, it gives you an idea.) Or a Tek 2 ecu, again available 2nd hand. If you want more power than these two fairly conservative options you could consider a Tek3. The latter is a custom remap, for which I'd suggest Bob Rawle at BR Developments.

 

cheeers for that. ive never heard of that. whats all this about ecu tek. and also what will i get out of the ppp ecu. will it change alot

 

once you start modding it never stops id recomend an apexi ecu as its cheaper in the long run when you go for more power

 

how much is the apexi ecu and what will it do

apexi will let you run more boost etc and safely so you dont have any engine probs

 

Bob Rawle is a very well respected Mapper who maps well within engine reliability margins. He also has a reputation for not trying to sell you things you don't need, unlike many companys tend to be tempted to do.

Email him your car spec and what you might want to do with it,

his email rbr@brdevelopments.com
