Hi guys,

Have done a fair bit of searching here and there's lots of really useful info, but I wanted to double check something.

I have a V4 sti and have replaced the exhaust as it was looking a bit swiss cheese(ish) with a complete stainless system....does it need a remap? or is it ok to use as is with vpower fuel?

I realise that to remap I would need a different ecu, but could I use a v5 ecu (assuming that I can get one) as I believe that these can be remapped?

Sorry if these are all really basic questions, but if you don't ask, then you don't know

 

Hi as for the ecu i dont think you can use a v5 in a v4 as there totally different,v3 and v4 are interchangeable but neither can be mapped.As for the exhaust cat back doesn't need a map

 

Thanks for the info about the ecu. The exhaust is a complete system not cat back.

 

As you have a sti watch your not overboosting, you need a map done to get the most power and make it safe,although some will say they have used them with no problems.

 

Am a big fan of safe maps, so will get it sorted. Thanks for the fast replies

 

I have a V4 sti and have had it mapped with an apexi power fc, totally different car. defo recommend it!!!!

 

Options are ESL daughterboard, £550, (out soon), Apexi FC ecu second hand (£350-550) then mapped £225, or Simtek ECU price to be confirmed.

Any questions just ask!

its been in the cards for quite a while, so i wouldn't hold your breath for it.

 

ESL Live for the MY97/98 was touted for release two Xmases ago, IIRC!

 

Are these prices plus the vat? I only ask as I want to get a new ecu fitted and mapped in my v3 sti soon

 

PM sent

 

I'm selling the Pajero and using the money for a new ecu Hope to see you soon then at those prices

 

Is the Link G4 available in the UK ? I've upgraded from the G1 last year and the difference is incredible...

 

Thanks everyone for the help (am new to Subaru mods so all help gratefully received)!

I think I fancy the Apexi FC route.....do you have any for sale?

 

well im still holding my breath lol
