Hi scooby gods

I have an s-reg classic impreza uk model
It has the following :

Sti version 2 engine
Fmic
3" stainless exhaust ( with 2 cats )
Stainless manifold
Apexi induction kit
Manual boost controller

ECU model 8S

What's the best upgrade for this ecu on a budget??
Maybe an sti one??
It's a three plug ecu and has yellow plugs if that helps

Thanks for reading

I guess your car is M/Y98 so it is ver 4. Your ECU is not mappable. cheapest option would be to look for a secondhand Apexi Power FC or even a Simtek for M/Y97/98 ie ver 3 or 4 but UK IYSWIM.

Tidgy

as harvey says best budget upgrade is simtek, best upgrade money no object syvecs.

It is a my98 :0)

I have considered the option of using the following..

Apexi SAFC super air flow converter
Apexi SITC super ignition timing converter

Anyone have any experience with these???
Are they any good? I can get both items for £120 so if they are good I'm on em lol.

Thanks for the replys guys. Much appreciated .

instead of an ecu? what do you need them for? what do you plan to use them for?

I just want to tweak the car to run at it's best for now
As soon as another cash injection arrives I will be on a new apexi ecu and controller :0)

bigsinky

why not just put the 120 to your new ecu. it will do afr and ignition properly

Your cheapest option is an Apexi Power FC secondhand. Don't waste dosh and listen to bigsinky.
