Default Hello from Newbie

Hipeople just joined up after picking up a wagon wrx and looking for a good site for advice without the usual my cars better than yours lol.

Spec

Blitz Full decat NUR SPEC
Blitz Induction
Blitz BOV
Remap ( Not sure no history to back up )
Mileage 170 klm
Boosts at 16psi

Any idea of what power i may be running Also as this is my first scooby im new to the way these things drive, it feels fast and then really kicks in, is there a way of mapping for a smoother constant power flow as that kick is great but until the turbo comes in its not much cop.

Any help would be great.

welcome, if the car has been mapped then your probably looking around 280ish bhp.

it may be worth getting it mapped again for piece of mind, as for the constant power flow, untill the turbo kicks in your driving a 2l car like any other, the real power kick as you call it is from the turbo its self. remapping may help to get a more smoother acceleration

You would need to convert the 16 psi to bar but think that's around the 1.1-2ish bar so on that your car is probably making about 250bhp.
