morning all, car insurance has gone up again and thinking of getting rid of the scooby. its a my00 uk turbo.
I have changed the turbo to vf28 with sti intercooler and walbro pump and a remap.
The car has full service history and i was thinking it will attract more attention if it was back to standard. Can i just change the turbo back to td04 and buy a standard ecu and not worry about re-map again?

 

Well its cheaper just to sell your ecu and pick up a standard one, otherwise you would need to remap when going back to the td04.

so with standard ecu and tdo4 no remap needed? thats what i was thinking.

 

Plus selling your ecutek'd ecu will pull you some cash in

Tony

 

hello mate will ecu fit uk 2001 bugeye wrx an come with licence .+ what bhp was you running.. if you wish to sell cheers

 

A classic ecu wont fit your car, you would need an ecu from an MY01/02 wrx.

Tony

 

thanks for the answer for me as i didnt no what it would fit. ecu would become avaliable along with vf28 and sti intercooler. car was running 256bhp. wasnt decat so approx 300 with that and a ecu tweek.

 

cheers mate didnt know weather you had a 2000 newage or old best of luck though ... have you exhausted all insurance companies you never know..

 

Have you tried Gary Moulson? Posts as Moley on here?

 

I've spent hours on the phone, until I get points off and claim past 5? Years I've no chance. On top of that running costs and maintain costs it's just to much. I'm paying more a year than what the cars worth, so a couple of years with a family diesel I think

 

Fair enough.
I have an intercooler off a 98 car here.

 

yeah i hear you mate not easy now days' i sometimes wonder if im mad to lol
