right its early days but i want to start to get an idea of whats best and who is best for my car
right the car
04 wrx blobeye
sti short engine (33k on the clock)
sti top mount intercooler
de-catted apart from up-pipe
3" exhaust system with japspeed backbox
cosworth panel filter
mapped by powerstation @1.3 bar 270bhp on ecutek
i will be fitting the following
vf34 turbo
sti injectors
uprated fuel pump
3 port boost solenoid
de-cat up-pipe
sti manifold and tumbler deletes
i am hoping for a car that pulls hard through the rev range with minimal lag,am i best to take it to an ecutek mapper as i already have the license so will be a little cheaper,i was going to go with pole position subaru and their mafless map (i still might to be fair) but i want to see what else is available to me
my mate just had his evo 6 live road mapped,it was 396bhp on the rollers before but wasnt a nice power curve-the fueling was all over the place,now he has had it live mapped its brutal,obviously mine wont be that brutal but is live mapping worth a shot? what costs are involved?
im a bit dubious about putting it on the rollers as ive seen plenty cars blow up on them-i know i shouldnt think like this but i do and thats that
mines been mapped road monday, im not interested in putting it on the rollers either.
not interested in bhp figures.
like you say above driveability is more important.
not sure on the ecutek thing though.

the only downsides of road mapping is the speeds you will be getting to............
even better,with road mapping can he give an idea of bhp or not?
no idea tbh, its just a map to get it running safely really as im going to change a fair bit more in a few months but want to drive it in the meantime until i have collected the rest of the parts

oh i see, i think this is the route i will take to be honest so hurry up and sell me your turbo/injectors
no rush matey as i have the worlds most expensive brakes to replace 1st then a leaking steering rack to get reconditioned then mot then xmas then sisters birthday then mrs birthday then mrs cars mot so if you could have them available before this time next year
