Smile REMAP OR NOT?

my car is a 05 wrx ppp, I've fitted a decat exhaust and decat uppipe, is it worth having a remap? Would it make much difference over the Prodrive map? Cheers, Mick.

It's essential to have a remap.
It'll be overboosting like mad if fully decatted, so you need to get it remapped asap.

Form what has been said before (in response to similar posts - including one by me), and I'm sure I will be corrected if I'm wrong...

...Remap it.

Where? and by who?.....well, thats the can of worms that there is no real, definitive answer to.

Do a search and you'll see what I mean....!!

When I had my decat exhaust fitted I had a cel-fix on the ecu to stop the light coming on, would this stop any overboosting? Mick.
