Ladies and Gents,

Firstly I apologise, this is total noob stuff I imagine

Just bought a 2002 WRX, it feels slower than I would have thought it would have been and here's what I'm noticing. The boost guage reads 0.6 bar at full whack, from my google exploits it seems a standard WRX runs @0.9 and there's a printout with the car that puts it @ around 270bhp. There's an electronic boost control module plonked in there with the stock one, it's an STNC TM-06 which looks like a blue and black version of the GrimmSpeed one without the mountings, it's got 2 hoses running to it and the third has a funny looking blank in it.

I suspect I'd like to remove it but I'm unsure it's even causing any issues, and I have no idea how to connect the old one back up, lol.

Anywho, any points in the right direction would be brilliant!

 

best advice is to take it to a specialist and get them to check the car over and dyno it aswell to see how the map is.

 

I plan to, have a few things to do to it first, pads and disks, and something about the coilovers because they're making horrible noises every now and then. Just wondered if anyone could point me in the directions of diagrams or something similar, my terminology isn't good enough to get my google-fu out yet

On that topic, can anyone recommend a specialist in the West Midlands area?

 

A three port boost control solenoid, the funny blank being a sintered metal filter


Used to be used by Zerosport.

 

Thanks Don, most helpful!

Could still do with a recommendation for a West Midlands specialist with a 4WD Dyno though
