Hi All

Dose anyone know and could confirm which model POWER ecu i would need to get for my 1998 turbo 2000 Terzo??

There are usually a few around forsale but never know which one i need??

Cheers

its the one with 3 plugs mate, have one on mine but will need to lift the carpet and cover to check the model number unless someone can confirm before.

Think you may also need a boost controller and 3 port solenoid.

It will also need a couple of wires swapping around - cam sensor and fuel relay or may have been crank sensor, struggling to remember!

OK had a look see, its marked as PFC GC8DL 020-7733 not sure of the significance of the last 7 digits though.

Hope this helps.

https://www.scoobynet.com/wanted-18/...l#post10207394 theres a apexi one there mentioned but i would use what you have unless you are fitting parts and needing a remap then the apexi is a option .

Scadds

So i guess this is a good think then lol...

I have not owned it long but the last owner did say it had a pro drive remap from factory, but thought he may be lying as read on this site that these cars could not be mapped with std ecu, but knew something was on as i have a 1bar boost..

I am hoping to fit a td05 turbo & fmic , so would this ecu be able to be mapped for these mods

no mate sell it on and get the apexi if you wish however there are other options depending on your budget such as simtek ecu or syvecs, first dibs if you decide to sell that ecu please ?? lol
the standard ecu would be a 8s incase you wondered.

Scadds

LoL i will definitely pm you if i do sell buddy... so what is the difference between this pro drive ecu and the std 8s? just a different map for the terzo?

cheers for all you help dude

prodrive ecu was developed for ppp models and cars had a few minor mods,intercooler,y,pipe and exhaust enhancements,boost up to about 1.1 bar from about 0.8 bar on a 98 and most of all torque is massively improved.
standard ecu cant be mapped or at least not conventionally ,there is a esl board thats been in development for years,but not sure how its getting on. Dave

Scadds

Thanks for the information Dave, so is this ecu is still not mappable as such just made by prodrive to improve std preformance, forgive my noobness lol

i believe it is ??? but not definite on that, but such a waste,better to sell it and buy dedicated aftermarket ecu, and cash in on the sp ecu.the standard ecu on 99/00 is mappable via ecutek software,the 98 one isnt ,i have a 98 wagon with a 8s in it and my uk 99 saloon.
search for apexi vs simtek for reasons whu i would go simtek, just my opinion though
mafless options etc

it dont think it will sell for this but you get the idea someones shadow bidding i think ,http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/subaru-imp...item336af9fa03

Wow was not expecting to find this under the floor pan lol.. yes dose seem a shame to re-map it if possible as they seem to quite rare..

Thank You for your help, much appreciated.. will do some research on the apexi and simtek...

cheers
