Right ho folks.
I'm organising a group buy with the legendary Simon of Jolly Green Monster fame www.jollygreenmonster.co.uk
It will be in early to mid December to allow time for saving.
Options:
One day, 4 or 5 cars, either at Subaru4you (Subaru4you - Subaru Performance Specialists - Upgrades and Subaru Servicing) for those who prefer road mapping or at Surrey Rolling Road (Surrey Rolling Road) for those who prefer the comfort of a dyno. Of course there is flexibility in this.
Costs (discount ) to be confirmed by the man himself, although I am absolutely positive he will make it worth our while

Please register interest, including a preference for date and venue as well as stating what car you have and what ECU.

1) Peanuts, MY99, PowerFC, S4U not bothered about date.

 

2006 sti ppp with 316bhp.
i would like to buy a simtek off jgm and get it installed mapped and would appreciate a discount on that if possible. rolling road or not i am not sure, which one is better for me? please give me advice. anytime after the 5th of december is fine for me as i will be in the uk by the 3rd

 

Excellent, I am sure that Simon JGM will be along to confirm what is available and what the costs will be

 

1) Peanuts, MY99, PowerFC, S4U not bothered about date.
2) scoobyc, MY98, PowerFc, surrey RR, not bothered, pref weekend.

 

Simtek is not available for 06.. I would recommend an EcuTek remap for your 06 sti.

PM or email if you want more info or to discuss further etc

Thanks
Simon

 

just to confirm - you have the powerfc already yes?

Thanks
Simon

 

me? yes.

 

Could be interested in this, I have an ECU with an open Ecutek licence on it (not fitted) would this be usable / cheaper ? Car is an my53 STI with PPP.

not fussed where it is, or date, would go with the flow.

Cheers
Rich

 

I'm interested though the group buy saving may be eaten into a little by the drive over from Maidstone area.

I would like a Simtek for my MY00 UK Turbo 2000.

Simon - I think I need to make contact with you regarding what I would like to achieve and what else I need to do in the meantime (nothing too exciting I'm afraid).

 

maybe Simon could map your car in the morning before he sets off over this way?
If he is staying in Kent the night before.

 

That is an excellent idea!!

Let's hope Simon agrees!?

 

I can't guarrentee the night before but seeing as I live near Maidstone and I presume you want it road mapped then I am sure we can sort it

Simon

 

Yes no problem. Assuming the ecu is also an Sti ecu.
I would need to reprogramme the keys (bring both) which I don't charge for anyway.

It is normally £300+VAT rather than £550+VAT as you have the ecutek licence already, actual price will depend on numbers, but probably 10% off.

Thanks
Simon

 

Cool, its an ECU out of a 53 STI, so on that basis count me in

Cheers
Rich

 

yes i have the power FC already. However it does require fitting & i dont have a commander yet.

 

nice one.. fitting is no issue.. I might also have a commander spare.. will check
I don't need commander for mapping though

Simon

 

That makes 4, assuming that K Duraman is out and wanted a simtek.
Just need a couple more really, we need to make this worth Simon's while, for him to make it worth our while

 

free bump then

 

i cound be intrested in this but it all depends if i can get all the parts that i need to do my turbo upgrade vf34 16g and fuel pump and 3port boost solenoid

 

Simon - Doesn't that give you a headache, trying to map 5 cars in a day?

 

@rse, about a month too early, if this slips to mid-January I'm in, but I'm out of the country until the end of December and need to get some bit squared first

 

jgm you have pm

 

id be in on this but too far for me to travel, cost me more in fuel than what i would be saving on the GB

 

lol..

I do get up your way from time to time though

 

i am not out yet. if the man says no simtek available,than no simtek available. i am not sure about the ecutek though haven't heard great reviews about it. what was the other one called? solonis or something. if i can afford it i would like to have that as i am building a 2.1 cdb to go with a gt35/82r, but this is a project to be finished in a couple of years i beleive (money doesn't grow on the trees unfortunatly). so it would be wise to invest in a capable ecu now, other wise i will stick with my ppp ecu and get that mapped for now. do you map ppp ecus simon? i don't have an open licence on it like rik tee has though.
cheers

 

solaris

 

Thankfully no

 

Simtek not yet avail for drive by wire cars.
Ecutek is what your ppp was mapped with and works very well for most.
However with that size turbo then agree you will need after market and solaris would work very well.

 

ok, so if this group buy goes well, what is the price tag am i looking at for the solaris, simon?
thanx

 

Around the £1700+VAT - discount which is likely to be 10~15% I would need to allocate time to make a loom adaptor or get one made.

Thanks
Simon
