Default Remap Impreza

I am based in Southern Ireland and was considering a re map for my 04 Impreza WRX , Could anyone give me any details of who could do this work in Northern Ireland.
I was also considering the PPP and would value anyones opinion on it , my reason for considering this option was that at least Subaru would guarantee it.

if you wanting it done down south speak to renno on ISDC Forum - Index to find out when the next mapping date is due but i think its soon or try Welcome to TTM - Total Torque Motorsport failing all that try performance subaru here Performance Subaru - Ireland's leading fast road Subaru specialist

good luck

Hi,

Prodrive will not sell direct as far as I'm aware - only through dealers.

Dealers are not supposed to sell to non UK registered vehicles i.e. those imported via International Motors.

There is someone in the North(On here too) who was going to be able to buy the PPP for his Euro Import, but was told his warranty was going to be void should he fit it.

Surely with UL being the only fuel down south....is the PPP even available ?

What is your car gti00eater ?

I think the 1st thing I would do with that sort of hp and only 95 ron fuel is fit a knock link sensor

What year is the car ?

Just as a follow up . I rang Prodrive and they will not deal directly with me but referred me to Subaru Ireland directly.So it looks like I will have to deal with a main Subaru dealer now.

If you are over 380bhp, I assume you have quite a few mods already, so wishing to run 95RON would be a bit silly TBH.

If it has been tuned for 380+...what fuel was it tuned on ? What ecu etc is it using ?
Be interesting to know what sort of spec it actually is, before suggesting if it could be re-tuned to safely run 95 RON. But given 97 isnt too hard to source up here, it would make better sense to tune the car for its use.

If it is only in from Japan, and you know nothing of its spec, I would play very very safe on the fuel you use here, and how you drive the car until it can be checked out.

If driving it normally..ie off boost, 95 will be fine to keep you mobile.

Drive it silly......and well, you might learn the hard way that it may not be safe on UK fuel here.
