Default PPP ECU on standard STi

Hi,

I'm looking at putting a prodrive ECu on my 03 STi,standard car apart from a Green panel filter,Will the Prodrive ECU work with my standard STi exhaust? and is an uprated fuel pump needed?

Thanks,

i think the ppp down pipe would be the most important,to get the full benefit out of the ecu.fuel pump is just for safety really.

down pipe? the prodrive website claims it only comes with centre section and backbox?

I have a decat magnex down pipe but it made the car run horrible without having a re map so I took it off.

prodrive definitely fit a sports cat downpipe to there cars you do know that you have to get your keys coded for the new ecu unless you can get someone to flash A new map to it, the other alternative is get the car open source mapped to youre new downpipe , and that will save buying a prodrive ecu.

I know a guy who can flash my key so thats not an issue, what is open source mapping?

I can't see the PPP ECU working well with my magnex de cat down pipe?

thanks for your help

open source mapping is where you can map newage ecus through the diagnostic port, with the same effect but at a greatly reduced price then other solutions.
