Default JDM WRX bugeye differences
Do you know what the mechanical differences are between my car and the UK model of the same year?

Apparently my car has 250bhp whereas the UK car had 218, I think. Is it all in the mapping or are there other differences?

Any help much appreciated.

Reckon you're probably right that its largely in the mapping fella but don't know the facts. I have a UK WRX bug running 218bhp, so i'd be interested to find out for sure too!
