1. change the boost pipe connector... done that.
2. reset ecu... did that aswell.

No a specific coilpack fault wont show up, although you might get a Missfire Code.

I have a tactrix cable and OpenSource software, so could check it out for you, if you are local to me?

i have had it plugged into a handheld thing and no codes came up? cheers

n10-4ndy

If the lambda sensor is dying the ecu will pull timing, do you get full boost ?

If it is dying get a mapper to "de-select" the error code and it will never show up again, and you can ignore the £300 bill for a new sensor, as it's only there to protect the "cat".

AFAIK all OEM TD05 16g's were "side entry" so will need converting to front entry to fit your Bugeye WRX. Then you will need the supporting mods and re-map..........I did this to my MY02 bug and ran a nice 320 odd BHP

320? Id be well chuffed with that. I already have a fully decatted turbo back system and a k and n 57i. I also have the td05 16g and a decat 3inch uppipe to fit. The lad i bought the turbo off said it would fit but i have to 'reroute my induction pipe'. I now relise that i need to change the housing. Any ideas were i can buy it from? Cheers

You can't buy the housing as it was never meant to fit the bugeye........it needs "Converting". Try AndyF, although he may only wish to take yours in PX.

Try EMAILING Andy F. But you may have to wait about 3 days for a reply as he's out mapping most of his time.

As for the contact info, google "lateral performance" and "andy forrest subaru"...

wrx2002dave

Ive emailed them both. cheers guys
