2004 WRX PPP & a Dawes - silly idea?
 

As above - am i pushing my luck slapping a Dawes on and edging the boost up a touch?

I know the warranty implications - i'm asking here about the mechanics of the idea. Will i get fuelling/Det probs? If i could get away with it - what is a sensible boost level?

My non PPP Bug eye i ran at 1.15bar, at 1.2 it got far too hot & felt like it produced less power. No idea what the 04 WRX PPP boost level is set at - is it 1.1 bar?

I'm not running a filter or anything like that on the 04 - it's stock except for the PPP exhaust system (mid cat gone, prodrive bb).

All i know is that an 03 wrx pp should boost at 18psi.

Dont know what that is in old money though.

It would be a bit risky using a Dawes without a boost gauge. A Knocklink would be advisable too. I think the PPP boost level is around 1.2 anyway which is pretty near as much as you could run safely with your current set up.

I think you have answered your own question, leave as is unless you plan to remap.

Hi,


Whats a Dawes?

Thanks all, i'll leave it, the car is producing dollops of power so i've got no complaints - just wanted to know what sort of overhead there was to play with & it's nothing so thats that.

Many thanks.
