hi ppl just put a deposit down on a 02 ppp wrx bugeye and was wondering if it ran the td04 turbo as im not sure due to only owning classics . any help would be great full . kev

 

yep it does

 

99.9% 'sure' lol

 

Yep, and with the PPP it'll be nearly running max boost - great excuse for an upgrade

 

Get a VF35 if going for more - 350 potential; 310-330 typical (unless, of course, you want even more than that).

Plus it still has decent spool - so you won't get "TD04 homesick" LOL

 

What other bits would help make it up to around 330?
Got a vf35 going on this week and a few other bits!

 

550 injectors
sti top mount
decent air filter
walbro fuel pump (reccomended)
full decat
and a remap

 

550 injectors
hdi front mount
apexi air filter
walbro fuel pump
full decat and up pipe
and a remap

so i will be getting up that way cause i got all the above on (going on) and mapping soon as after!

 

this is a handy form of reference HTH

Your ecu will probably have the Gems piggyback board in it as fitted to the early PPP cars. Your best option is to source a new ecu from a 2001/2 wrx and sell your PPP ecu on.

That will allow your car to be remapped.

 

gems ppp piggy back board is a 5minute job to remove if it has it.. ppp on this year not particularly wonderful method, much better when they started using ecutek to load the maps on. Once removed remap no issue.. you may get a small amount for the ecu if you sell on but they don't tend to sell that quickly or for that much

the bloke im having the car from says it pushing 300 - 320 and peak boost of 16 psi at 3000 then droping to 14 and holding there the rest of the range .it has a big folder full of paper work with the car . i had a quick look at it one sevice report says it using 10/50 oil spec c filter and had tarox discs and pads fitted . that was just one of mant reciepts with the car . it drives great feels like there is no lag

 

Not on the standard turbo it wont be pushing that figure and not at that boost. 260-270bhp tops

 

By the time the MY02 had rolled out they had dropped the piggy back board. As Dynamix says I'd put it at 250 BHP with the PPP. They came as 215 BHP out of the box so it's a nice gain LOL

i know it has a full stainless fitted to it but the rest im not sure about til i get the car and read all the paper work that comes with it , but im going to get it booked in and put on the rollers to find out how it is running before i go to mad with it . i am hoing its all beendone properly so i dont have to spend out again , saying that if i do i might as well go all the way with it lol

 

agreed, seen the odd one at 02 with gems board though

 

Simon

I'd guess the "02" PPP's would have the a-pillar radio mast and not have the aerial in the rear screen..........MY01 'ish

Stuck on a forecourt somewhere in an unloved colour (green or red) or in an out of the way place............like Well Lane Turbo LOL

Tongue in cheek

Shaun

 

lol true the would be my01's on an 02 plate.. too long a day to type what I meant the first time.

Having said that I had a whale of a time in my Bugeye running 250-300 BHP with various mods. I never though the car would break or it would kill me LOL. Great fun

I curently run at about 400 odd BHP with methanol injection and I sit and wait for the next thing to break.......the latest is the APS DR500 pipe that runs from the intercooler next to the battery ............ can you get one for me ??

Cheers Shaun
