Dates and power are estimates.

Buy MY94 WRX Wagon (TD04 turbo) in May

May 2004 - Standard = 220ps
Mid may - fit STi backbox + boost gauge = 225ps
End May - Fit decat downpipe and decat centre = 240ps (+quick spool)
Late June - fit VOS chip +K&N panel = 260ps + overboosting
Late June - fit dawes and new coilpacks = 260ps
Early July - remove VOS and dawes = 240ps
Early Aug - install TD05 + Z4 (still have decat) = 280 ps
Mid Aug - reinstall VOS chip = 300 ps

Mid Aug - fit knocklink
Late Aug - remove VOS chip =280ps
Early Sept - remove decat downpipe =265ps (+slow spool)

Knocklink much happier now, but not such a big grin on my face.

I've only had 40 mins driving it since re-cat and its probably plenty powerful enough (actually seems to have better pre-boost pickup with the cat). But once boost kicks in the difference is quite great (same as comparing driving alone and driving with 3 fat passengers). It is a lot quieter though which is good in some ways and not so good in others.

Still managed to get a Red on the knocklink once but it was warm and the ECU was just reset so needs to learn crap UK optimax..?..

Maybe I should just put the decat back on and risk it for a biscuit. It is getting colder afterall.

maybe its just gear noise...?...

At least the knocklink looks good now as I have istalled it in the dash

Forgot to mention all the other normal scooby stuff (eg. lambda sensor x 1, MAF sensor x1, MAP sensor x 1). double platinum spark plugs (7's), 4-pot brakes etc etc.

What a great hobby.

Fuel pump next.

Then headers and up-pipe, refit downpipe and get remap eh!

Roojai, so where did it end up then? Above or below the clocks?

below. Easier to see there for me, and didn't seem to be enough space above.

Was a bit of a quicky job, and ended up with the LEDs in a line coming out from the dash as I couldn't fit it in across. Couldn't be arsed to move individual LEDs or anything. Still, it is at a slight angle from driving position and it works great and looks pretty good. Big red at front of course.

driving it around today I think it is much more drivable. Smoother running and better pick up below 3000rpm. Quite like it.

I dont think gear mesh frequencies match the KL - but not worked this out yet
