No, the 93-96 are NOT the same. 92-94 was th2 240ps model and 95-96 was the 260ps model. Don't know where you got that info from Shane but it's wrong.
Best thing to do Mark is get a scoobyecu adaptor, probably works out cheaper plus you'll get a better map than the 96WRx map.

Yep, same place as above, had mine now for about 3 months or so.
You can interchange the ecu's if you want but they probably cost £150, the scoobyecu adaptor is about £60. Not really a contest. Give David, Paul or Scott a shout and they'll be able to sort you out.

P.s just got 271bhp and 252lb'ft of torque using one of the adaptors.

I think Shane may be quoting for their domestic impreza's not jap imports as he is from New Zealand and I presume their's were called wrx's as well as Australia 
may be wrong though

Justin,
Car is a MY93WRX with induction kit and full decat. The map is a 16.5psi one from Paul (Pavlo). It seemed to be only getting a bar of boost tho (the gauge is probably the answer to this... bit inaccurate). On the first of the runs i got about 286bhp but with the fan not pointing at the TMIC and the heat soak there after i then got about 270 then 260 bhp..... this is then averaged on the computer and the print out said 271bhp. Not bad but i think the first figure is more what it feels like on the road .

Interesting stuff Tony. I'm running a MY95 WRX with full decat and K+N panel filter (res removed) with a Dawes set at 1.0 bar (14.5 psi) and that got me 283bhp on PE's rollers, argably a bit more generous than Well lanes. When on the rollers boost dropped to 13.8psi when getting those figures. So I reckon the generous figure at 13,8psi is probably about the figure when boosting on the road 
.
I'm going the same route as you and getting the 16.5psi map soon from Scott, it will be interesting to see what I can get on PE's rollers then.
Does anyone know the differences between the MY93-94 and the MY95-96 WRX's WRT engine / ancillery components? I know the maps were different, I just wondered if the reason why Subaru got more power out of the later cars was purely a better map, or were there other components upgraded?
Thanks

I've had one fitted, said this a few times before, hope I don't sound like a broken record! It's seriously the best thing I've purchased so far. Well recommended, more torque, higher boost, I think fuelling is slightly changed to compensate for our crappy stuff. The map is also switchable, so you can have an incar switch for wife mode!!! Generally feels like a different car, buy one!

Having read this thread and others similar, i am seriously considering investing in the adaptor for my motor ...MY 93wrx.
One question, tho' and its something i need to consider i do a fair amount of motorway mileage, back n too to work ... economy? at the momnent i get around 25mpg average, what would fitting the adapter do?
...standard car, with just a VTA dump valve fitted.
Cheers
