Mods before getting mapped

Mods before getting mapped
Right i'm finally getting my Impreza remapped. Classic 1998 2000 turbo
At the moment i'm upgrading the intercooler to Blob wrx intercooler, it has a complete exhaust system fitted, with performance filter
Just thinking what else I should upgrade, i'm hoping for 280bhp, do people think its best to upgrade to 440 injectors and fuel pump?
Any advice would be great from someone who's been there done that thanks

I looked at this for injectors

Also be an idea to upgrade fuel pump to 255lph
I'm remapping mine shortly and already have 440cc injectors and updated pump.

I found a company that would supply and fit yours for £525, I haven't got the ***** to try self mapping
Cheers for info, forgot about 3 port boost solenoid, I read up on them awhile ago but completely forgot reason why to fit one, will have to do some research.

I thought about taking it for remap but for not too much more money I will have the ESL+Motorsport pack with lead and software. When I read the 36 page user manual which is on their website and doing plenty more research I bit the bullet and decided to do my own mapping,especially since I want to do more upgrades in the future like decat and rcm induction ect,so instead of paying for map tweaks constantly it would be better to learn the art of mapping and just do things slowly.
Let us know how you get on with your remap mate,I take it Duncan is doing yours? I hear he is a top guy and comes highly recommended by Mr Andy Stevens aka ESL

Ok you sound like you know what your doing.
Once I get it upto 280bhp think I will be happy enough, just want to perform like my WRX import use to. That was an amazing car to drive. If I don't settle for that might go to 320bhp and stop there.
Yeah contacted a few places, Duncan been most helpful so far. Not going to get it mapped just yet as need to fit a few mods like you said no point going back for a tweek every 5mins

Hahahaha yeah 260bhp
they 'can' get higher than 260, but i see alot of claims about that power and that power which when put on a reputable dyno just dont do the numbers or found to have been pushed too hard and not safe. how safe the map is kept also makes alot of difference.
260bhp is a typical figure, higher than that great, but its not all about figures.
Depends what your power targets are, once you start looking at changing turbo's then its a hole different ball game and its 'how deep are your pockets' situation.
Unless you wanna look at spend a few thousand then just stick with current turbo

this would be my concern, mine is a uk 99, its coming to 16 year old, its done 115k though its regular serviced and i rarely use it pushing too much power like 120bhp more than it is currently i would expect some breakages!
260-280 is still a very fast classic, if you match the brakes , suspension and anti roll bars you can make a very quick car that will outrun higher bhp cars i.e. Focus ST's and the like
thats just my opinion tho

I will have some 440s for sale shortly as just come of my UK 2000 with ony 70k on the clock, just upgraded to 550s, let me know if your interested. They were running fine before removal. Just to add they have been removed by a professional, not by me!

Not looking to spend silly money, in further I may aim for 300bhp but to be honest that would be about it. As close to 280 would be good.
My old wrx was rapid but never new what bhp it had, I guessed it was 280bhp but the guy who bought it off me bought his mate who had a wrx and he said it was faster than his
Saying that he could of had the 260bhp model.
Think I will stick to standard turbo for now then. So its just 440 injectors, 3 port boost solenoid, and fuel pump? thanks

what year did the injectors change? my my99 had 440's. 380's will prob be ok for mapping on the standard turbo anyway
fuel pump, decat, panel filter and map.
If you wanna spend a bit more look at headers and up pipe.
