I have no idea what you`re saying, let alone anything else!

 

cheers for the help

 

All depends on if its been tuned to suit mods buddy. A few of those mods should increase power, but they could be wasted if not tuned correctly.

Uk 2000 should be 220ish depending on engine condition, so maybe 240bhp??

 

cheers bud doent know mutch a bout the car not had it long engine is one ov the best iv heard for its age all i can tell u is goes like klapers iv had a few fast turbo cars but this feels qwick cheers matt

 

Popcorn mate, like some ?

 

What's going on here. Is this text speak

 

Get it on the rollers and let us know what happens.........

As I said, dont be suprised if chap says it needs a remap with the mods...

Good luck

 

Watch the spelling and grammar matey, you'll get completely flamed for that post. You'll get a much more pleasant response if you take time over your posts. You must know that text speak will always get you a ripping.

As for your query, rollers will be your best bet but buying an Impreza with no history from a guy who didn't know what he was talking about, I'd be getting belts checked and a full fluids change!

 

hi bud sorry iv got dislexia no good at writing yes iv done the belts and all the oils cheers

 

No need to say sorry mate. Welcome

 

cheers bud looks like rollers haw will i know if its had a remap all ready is thear any way to tell?????

 

Best to just go for a fresh mapping session mate... All would have been in order from previous seller if, if everything was indeed in order

 

Take a look at the ECU, its easy to get to. Pull back the carpet in the passengers foot well, there will be a metal kick plate, remove this then behind will be the ECU. It might have been written on or had a sticker stuck on if it has been mapped, you'll at least be able to see what ECU you have then take it from there.

 

cheers bud and thanx again i will have a look tomorrow and let u know wot i find

 

I know it would be a pain but could be worth starting your post saying you are dyslexic just to stop and future comments.

 

We will get to know his name. No fuss

 

hi and welcome mate as said get it booked in for a mapping session just to make sure. ps ignore the grammar and speech police on here spelling and use of language is not everyones strong point and you should not have to start your post telling people about it.

 

Write in a word pad first, use the grammar checker and hey presto! you are sorted

 

Y u avin a go at sum kid bout way he speaks.

 

 

Either CityBoy missed a smiley, or Steve missed the irony!

 

The way this forum is going mate, probably neither.

 

I'm dyslexic aswell but it doesn't take 2 seconds to fire it through a spell checker....

No history and all those mods I would be wanting to give it a thorough service and get it booked in for a mapping session

 

cheers for the coments all first things i did wos timing belt and full service cheers bud

 

You won't go far unless you stop using txt speak in a forum.

It is nearly impossible to read what you are trying to say.

 

wot have i done wrong naw ??????? this site wot the f*** ive put on that im sorry about my spelling wot do u wont blood well mines green so u carnt have it

 

Fair play mate!

 

I cant decide whether this is a wind up or not, but if not - Leave the poor man alone.

with those mods and boosting 15psi tailing to about 10 psi it is more or less stock, and with those mods and a fuel pressure regulator on I suspect original ECU, it is very possibly running rich and actually down on power from a stock car.

I would check boost pressure on boost and held and fueling first. It will need to be running an aftermarket ECU on a MY97 as you can't map the original ECU so as said peel back the cover and see if its an aftermarket ECU such as Apexi, gems, Simtek etc.

I suspect its standard in which you would probably make the car more drivable and quicker but putting everything back to standard, sell the bits off and pocket some money.

But if you want more than just pub talk, and you are chasing power, then an Apexi ECU and a remap with those mods running right should see you around 280bhp.

 

Hi Matt, you're just around the corner from me. Who did the timing belt and sevice?
