Had my Subaru for a few months now and as I'm sure most of you know the initial speed now seems average so now I want more BHP....(cars got a cat back exhaust that's it)

I'm not going for a massive increase but I want enough to put a grin on my face, my thoughts were just having a remap for extra BHP and better drivability or do I depend extra money on decat, injectors etc etc

Is the extra £500-1000 in mods really worth the extra BHP or is a remap to say around 250bhp going to be plenty for that grin factor

Another thing is I only ever use my car for driving around town on the weekend maybe the odd trip out so don't really use it all that much

 

what car do you have?

 

Lol that would be a help wouldn't it

It's a 52 bugeye WRX wagon

 

Lose the catted up-pipe and remove the 2nd cat (still passes mot) new fuel pump and ecutek or open source re map and you'll see ish 270/280bhp.

Cheaper way is to get the PPP parts and re-flash PPP map, slightly less power (260bhp) but maybe £500 cheaper dependant on where you get the parts from.

Should be able to pick up WRX PPP parts off here for less than £200 and the map is free off here, just need someone to flash your ECU with it, 10 min job.
