Hi Guys own a newage wrx fitted all my mod bits about 4 weeks ago (walbro 255lph fuel pump , sti top mount intercooler , vf35 , complete de-cat exhaust , ported headers and de-cat uppipe , panel filter , PFR7B plugs ).been driving the car smoothly off boost but yesterday fitted sti pink injectors and 3 port boost solenoid and understand the car now cannot be driven until remapped but will it be o.k to start the car for approx 30 mins every couple of days to keep the oil round the engine? The car runs very smooth no signs of overfuelling , coughing or spluttering.
Thanks in advance for all the advice.

When's the remap booked? Engine doesn't need to be started every few days - for example, the car won't be started for a few weeks if you go on holiday and is always fine when you get back.

I would avoid dirving the car at all if possible, as the larger injectors will cause the engine to run rich and there is a risk of bore wash (neat fuel washes the oil away).

 

DOn't bother wasting time and money starting the car every couple of days. Leave it switched off but put a battery charger on it every 10 days or so if it has a history of running the battery down. Absolutely no sense in starting the car at 2 day intervals to run oil round the system.

 

Thanx for the advice guys booked in for remap 5th june and yes battery does run down so now on the oxford optimiser.
