hello new to scoobies so any help appreciated im trying to sus whats been done to car as it has full decated 3" stainless exh apexi inlet and a arc intercooler
does anyone no what ecu ive got by these numbers
U8 222611 AA801 A18 000 RJ2
All above are fitted to a k plate wrx
cheers kip

 

U8 is the standard ECU for that car.

These ECUs are chipable, so if you open it up and check, there should be a blank area on the circuit board where a chip would fit.

This picture shows the inside of an ECU that has had a socket fitted into the blank space (top right of the pic). A chip would then be fitted into this. If yours is standard, the area with the socket here will just be plain green circuit board.

brought the car as a cat c salvage for a steal trying to get a bit of background history and what has been done to the car




open'd up ecu today diddnt look promiseing as original jap seals still intact but to my surprise were i expected a blank hole to be was a chip with a sticker on it saying wrx2 pic enclosed if any one has any info on this and the maf sensor, intercooler turbo and down pipe please let me know




pic of ecu





a.r.c intercooler from the states i think





the maff sensor is this the good one or the fragile one








the bottom pipe on the right of the solenoid has been taken off were its meant to go i persume this should go to the actuator, but instead their is a pipe going from actuator back to the snail ive seen this done on cossies but dont know why any answers






last of all the turbo dont know if any one can tell if this is the std one for car or has been changed




if any one can help me identify any of these and explain why changes have been made and what gains i might get will help.
ive got knoledge of cossies but am trying to gain more on the scooby
cheers kip

 

LOOKS LI KE A TDO5 TURBO

 

HOW DO I TELL ANY GIVE AWAYS IE NUMBERS ,TAKE IT ITS BETTER THAN THE STOCK UNIT?
CHEERS KIP

 

Be carefull if it's running a jap map. It may be too aggressive for UK fuel

 

the number is on the turbo at the up pipe i think and td05 is standard on early scoobies

 

The I.D number for the turbo is found on the front shell. HTH

 

SHOULD BE SAFE WITH SHELL OPTIMAX ???????

 

HAD A LOOK TODAY AND IT IS A TD05 CHEERS FOR INFO
