He did his own, and has the fastest Subaru in the UK, and has had for about the about the last 2 years apart from a few months this year when he didn't have a Subaru at all.

He's done lots of other cars in more reasonable specifications and they are doing the results and holding together well.

andyf is absolutley crap and wouldnt consider using him.. he's just a dyno queen..

Seriously though.. If his recommendations are anything to go buy then its worth a shot.. Nah.. really.. He would get my money if I had a power FC

John.. dont be so sure of the fastest subaru thing its just a temporary measure, you know how insecure he feels with his tiny figures.. and Im sure harvey wont like that comment.. Cant wait to take that from andy.. Who has the fastest wagon in the uk now... erm that will be me.. thankyou. top speed via gps is better than most ive seen too..

besides.. I think mines quicker.. hence why andy mentioned sabbotaging mine if I came up to dastek.. (we were joking..) I guess your near there.. but will let you and t-uk know when I head up that way.. next few weeks all being well..

Andy.. my bet is 527 at the FW. torque.. unknown.. 5250?

ps If anyone is unsure.. its safe to say me and andy have been friends since we both began tuning scoobs.. as we arent scared to try things most people wouldnt consider.


good luck for tomorrow, if you read this whilst your stuck at work.. LMFAO..

David

had my car R&R'd after andy had mapped my car had ecutek but changed to power fc my peak boost changed from 1.2 bar to 1.6 bar but when i R&R'd my car the BHP was exactly the same only difference was my cars acceleration had turned MAD im fitting a big turbo and i dont expect my power to be high but the way andy maps the car acceleration is

"dyno queen" arent you getting andy to do an avcr for you

steve, your car only held 18 psi last time it was on the rollers didn't it?

i had a problem getting the boost up on mine the first few times i had it at well lane.

the rollers load wasn't enough to bring the boost up so i raised the duty a bit and it made the target boost.

Andy,
as you are probably aware I have been in touch with you about a remap, at the moment the car is standard, UK 99 Turbo Est
Away to buy a H&s decat system
The car gets driven everyday, so looking for reliability.
Looking for more acceleration, not top end speed.
What would be my best option & what else would you recomend I need.
looking for some advice m8

first thing to get is a walbro fuel pump as the standard ones are poor.

a set of samco intercooler hoses will free up the intercooler breathing a bit.

a good replacement panel filter like a K&N, do not use a foam filter as it causes MAF problems (also a 57i but its a bit more expensive)

set of PFR7B spark plugs.

you say you are getting a de-cat system, make sure you get a de-cat downpipe too.

that little lot will help your car breath a lot easier and make the most of the re-map.
