Default my new scooby

evenin all


well this is my first post on here...


Im picking my uk300 up on thursday

sorry about the sizes
























Heres a list of what I know whats been done so far

Subaru Impreza UK300 2.5 2001 (number 181 of 300)
Private plate included P300 WRX
In the last 6 years this car has wanted for nothing with no expense spared
Also has RAC Trackstar (this makes my insurance £320 per year)
Upgrades I have added are as follows
New 2.5 engine @ 79000 miles cost £4500
VF34 Turbo @ 79000 miles cost £700 ish
Uprated clutch & flywheel
K&N Typhoon still have original
Full stainless decat but still have originals
ECU Tec re-map
Producing 317 BHP & loads of torque being a 2.5
ECU Tec data monitor (this will tell you everything boost pressure, RPM, intake temp & loads more)
Spent over £2000 on brakes at the beginning of the year
Oil & Filter change every 4000 miles
Only ever run on super unleaded or V Power
Always warmed up & cooled down
Folder full of receipts
Any inspection welcome


I really cant wait to pick it up.........

Sounds a lovely car but I would have thought the car would be 330 bhp with those mods

Looks tidy, but as above, I'd have thought it would be running a lot more power on a 2.5. I expect it to be more like 350bhp even with the WRX TMIC still fitted

To be honest I'm not sure but I don't think so. If you can change things, I wouldn't adjust anything as the cars been setup like it. It's great to keep an eye on all the engine temps and pressures!
