Mapped a fair few on apexi, I suspect the standard ecu is mappable also though.
Try Ed at Fusion motorsport as he deals with all the nistune software etc

Owned one myself fella last year for 8 months. You can map the standard ECU but depends what power the car is putting out and what has been done to it. I mapped mine on a straight through system, HKS filter, Uprated fuel pump, Uprated Greddy Intercooler and BOV and thats about it. I know for a fact if you start replacing injectors, turbos or generally anything you'd consider above stage 1, they run like **** on standard Mapped ECUs for some odd reason but i know **** all about ECUs so id take advice from the jolly green one above me

Will check the renewal
Two friends of mine bought GTS's after having modified Impreza's, and were shocked by the costs. (fuel being the main one)
Richard @ RSP certainly knows his stuff.

If it is of any interest to you I have a new Hybrid GTS FMIC kit complete.
Absolute bargain at £225 plus postage.
These were a very popular mod on GTS when they were the rage 7-8 years ago.

Stock ecu isn't mapable on it's own with open source style software as yet. You can use an ESL style daughterboard called Nistune, but it is still no replacement for a proper ecu like a Syvecs or Vipec.
