2003 Wrx Blobeye More Power Advice
 
hey guys,

have a 2003 wrx blobeye with the following mods,

Td05 16g Turbo
Decat Up-pipe
Decat Downpipe
Walbro 225 Fuel Pump
Remap

Car is running standard injectors etc.

What would the next step be for me to get more power.... and what is the max my engine can handle?

thanks :)

scooby_impreza 19 October 2015 05:52 PM

Anyone?

ScottyPPP 19 October 2015 06:35 PM

STI injectors will get you some more power. But I wouldn't push a stock WRX lump that far personally.

scooby_impreza 19 October 2015 06:48 PM

When you say more power around what bhp would i see?
What would need doing to run more power and be safe? Thanks for the reply

Any idea what power you are running now? I own a 03 wrx also, I'm at 270bhp. I'm putting a vf35 and pink injectors on after Christmas and hoping for around 320bhp, ive been told 350 is borderline for the wrx??

scooby_impreza 19 October 2015 07:12 PM

Mapper estimated close to 300bhp, looking to get more power just need info etc

bustaMOVEs 19 October 2015 07:18 PM

350 is your limit tbh.
Pink injectors
Panel filter
Full decat inc uppipe
Vf35/34/28 td05 16g etc
255lph fuel pump
And remap and should be around 330-350

scooby_impreza 19 October 2015 07:42 PM

so pink injectors will be all i need for 330-350?
just curious what is needed for more than 350bhp?

thanks

A bigger turbo and a few other stuff inc ecu as stock ecu will only go to about 1.55 bar and not ideal going over that on a wrx as engine or gearbox 'may' not be upto it so stick with upto 350max

scooby_impreza 19 October 2015 08:11 PM

ok mate thanks for your help

Better brakes, handling up-grades and some driving lessons. ;)

scooby_impreza 19 October 2015 08:56 PM

Gearbox is stronger than the engine in my experience.

Sorry to high jack the thread.

But i was quoted yesterday £1200 for :

vf35
pink injectors
walbro
remap
fitting

i already have the decat and induction kit. Is this a good price

There's a few mods that will get you more power (mainly at the wheels) if you want boost levels to be safer, things like lightened flywheel, aircon removal, lightweight pulleys, lightweight propshaft, silicone turbo inlet, ABS removal, low friction oils and larger top mount intercooler.

I'm making 333bhp at just 1.3bar, with a sportscat!

Not bad.

I'd expect to pay around that if it included an ecutek map. Maybe a tad more at some Subaru orientated specialists.
