Default Prodrive ECU

Ok due to a total time waster in County Durham

I was due to have the prodrive pack added to my 05 wrx.

I am now looking for another garage that can source the ECU and install this anyone know of a decent garage or person in county durham.

Little new to adding bits and pieces to the car so hope this isnt a silly question and statement.

I already have a Ninja Exhaust system and the K&N air induction kit which i was advised to buy and all have been added.

Have a turbo timer to add also but i have since been told on here there a waste of time.

Mind think id like this adding anyone.

Stupid garage said after buying all these all i would need is the prodrive ecu adding which he was meant to supply and fit.

Any help would be great.

Thanks

Matty

Scrap the prodrive ECU and get a proper Ecutek remap IMHO. Better value for money

a ecutek remap will be mapped for your car as it is and a better fit rather than a generic ppp one, also ppp uses its own exhaust with sports cat and no induction kit. if you keep your own ecu you'll get a much better car and not have to re code your keys.

Thanks Tong

That makes more sense to be honest

Ok now next question is there anywhere local or can you point me in the right direction to have this done.

Plus a rough cost

Thanks

No where local for an Ecutek, closet is Andy F just outside Edinburgh.

Occasionally the lads at ther TTS get him to come down if a few cars are being done.

Alyn at ASP is in Birtley and usually sorts out most north east Scoobs.

P.S get rid of the induction, it'll be doing nothing except sucking in hot air from your engine bay

Getting mine done soon at RE Motorsport Subaru Dealer, Subura Imports, Subaru Specialist in York

My car already has the PPP but the performance is poor compared to my last WRX PPP. Unless you have extended your warranty, go Ecutek
