Default Which ECU remap?

Hi, just got my 2003 Impreza WRX and I was thinking about getting one of those performance packages for it. However, it already has a Tip Top Performance exhaust. Can I get away with just having the ECU remap and panel filter fitted or should I bin my current exhaust and just go for one of the complete packages?

what exhaust is it, is it decatted? if not then ide suggest getting a full decat, panel filter then a remap.depends on your budget which remap you choose, alot of people use Ecutek (me included ) which start around £550 then comes the dearer ones like motec, simtec etc..

The exhaust is made by a company called Tip Top Performance who are based in Birmingham.

TIPTOP PERFORMANCE

The receipt for the exhaust says middle and back section so I guess its not a decat.

well its upto you if you keep it or not, as ive said a full decat exhaust and remap would be your best bet if your after some more bhp. if you buy second hand parts then it would work out alot cheaper than going for one of the full packages.
