Question 05 WRX PPP

Hi there

I have had my new car for all of 2 month now and im starting to want to tune it more, even though i promiosed myself i wouldnt....

im not wanting to do anything to drastic to the car, bolt on mods only...

I dont really know to much about the tuning side of things, hence my post in here....

As of now, the car has the PPP upgrade and thats it...

Seen alot of talk about dawes devices, fuel controlers, boost controllers and the likes of, are any of these worth it on my car????

Where do i start please???


Thanks

John

Your car wont be run in properly yet (if its new) as they need a good 5k under their belts before you start to see the improvement in performance.
Also you have the warranty to consider, by modifying your car you invalidate this.

As Tony has, at least get 5k on the engine before you consider any furtur mods. My car became totally different at around 4500 miles and gets better all the time.

Scoob engine are notoriously (sp?) tight when new and take a lot of running in to be at there best..!
