thats great that was the place which i was thinking of taking her. and it is only 40mins drive rather that 3hours.
and they seem to be fairly well priced. |
i'm sure the place in devon is good but for the sake of a 3 hour drive wouldn't you feel better knowing one of the best mappers in the business had worked on your car? besides you will love the drive home:D

I can assure you the Alan Jeffery's engineering know they're stuff you won't be disappointed.
Last year I was also looking for someone in the southwest to remap my P1 and after several phone conversations with other companies I chose Alan Jeffery's, they seemed to be much more approachable and friendly with a genuine interest in my car and want I wanted to achieve. They're knowledge is extensive and after several phone conversations we'd drawn up a list of parts I needed which I decided to source myself to save a few pennies and they fitted for me. I never felt pushed into buying anything just well guided and they were always on the end of the phone when I needed advice, even when they were really busy. I currently run the following spec Ported heads Piper cams Blitz Front mount intercooler Forge recirculating dump valve K&N cone filter Lateral Performance headers, wrapped Decat 3" Exhaust Walbro Fuel pump Uprated Organic clutch NGK PFR7B Spark plugs IHI VF34 Turbo Apexi Avc-r Boost Controller EcuTek Re-map, 350bhp/320lbft dyno20003.jpg - Image - Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting The car is wonderful to drive and very useable on the road, exactly how I wanted it. I could have gone for a bigger turbo and more power but I was after drivability and smooth delivery to go hand in hand with my new AP Racing 355mm 6pots and planned suspension upgrades. |
I have 355bhp on Powerstations (allegedly) conservative rollers
I had PPP but changed the following 1) Exhaust to 3" decat with sports cat miltek exhaust 2) Top mount I changed to the APS top mount 3) APS cold air feed 4) Remap It is doing 355bhp, torque I think was c320 - 330. PS commented that it was running really well at boost c1.38bar on the vf35. Year my53 sti uk .... You can get it if you really want but you must try .... try and try ....try and tryyyy.... you'll succeed at last ..... dum dum dum |
tha song is stuck in my head now, so tell me is cold air feed similar to an induction kit or not. if not how does it work...
|
Yes it is the same , just placed in a different area generally the inner wing...

I asked Andy Forrest the best mods for about 400 ponys and this is his reply

Kind regards Scott Hi Scott I would recommend an APS 70mm cold air induction £200 TD05-20G for 380bhp £850 Or Garrett GT hybrid for 400bhp £1250 Uprated fuel pump £85 Fuel press reg £170 GT spec headers £400 Full 3" decat approx £500 Ecutec custom remap £500 Prices plus vat, I only do the Ecu mapping and turbo building work here. regards Andy |
sounds good but is it nessecary to uprate the fuel pump as the ppp kit already has one or does it still need more.
it is pricey at first but i pressume you would then sell your old vf35 and prodrive exhaust to re-coup a bit? |
Hello there Im still running the VF35 on my 05 sti and im running 370bhp and 364lbs-ft of torque
My mods are *Meercat 3 inch custom "Snake head" turbo back decat system *GT spec 2 headers and up pipe *APS inner wing induction kit linked onto Perrin turbo intake elbow *I had the turbo wastegate ported out to help stop the boost creep that the VF35's are known for along with the exhaust housing ported *Bosch 255L per hour pump *10% Methanol *Andy.F remap Still running standard injectors and fuel pressure regulator (untill this winter when I hope to be visiting Mr F again for what seems like my yearly remap...lol) Im tempted by a turbo change but I want to see just how close to the magic 400 I can get on the VF 35 with a power to torque ratio that I have at the moment, I dont think I will get there but I want to try!:lol1: Graeme |

ok thanks thats interesting.
|
I'm with Andy on the fuel pump, definately needs a swap out if going to higher levels, also found Walbro's to be wanting under some circumstances but still best value for money. I'd go MD321H for the turbo mind as that will do 400 on boost thats compatable with a std Eurospec Sti engine.

bob just the man, when you going to sort out your web site ive been trying for weeks now. bob i origanally started this thread because im getting some money in feb and wanted to know what my options are. im looking for 340-350 but i wanted to keep the vf as getting another turbo is going to bang the price up. i have the sti8 ppp, so in your proffesional opinion what could be done and what would be a realistic price to see it done there are so many different ideas some seem to have done loads yet only have 10-15 bhp more than someone who has done not to much so i really am lost.
thanks stewart. |

what sort of boost are you lot running to make that much torque?? mine was mapped at powerstation, hits 1.3bar and tails off to 1.25 up top and made 334bhp and under 290lbft
ported headers 3 port solinoid prodrive d.pipe full 2.75" milltek k&n panel Check the Neutral position switch. This turned out to be faulty on mine. It's a known fault too. |

just been looking back at one of your earlier posts mate and if i change to a 3" exhaust does the ppp sports cat HAVE to be replace or can the other one be joined some where else because im pressuming one is 3" and the other would be 2.5" or does it need to come off to fit the bigger. what would be an average price to get back of the ppp complete exhaust and the vf35.
just weighing it up and it might well be worth what you were saying about the td05 and going to the 360-370m mk i think it would only be a few hundered quid more for that much more bhp. |
