prodrive lowering springs

decat down pipe and up pipe and a sports cat

nice set of alloys or new tyres

fat_boy 20 August 2008 06:23 PM

looking more towards making it faster then sort out looks but there all on my list lol :)

MrLouKnee 20 August 2008 06:32 PM

i found that the lowering springs mean i can carry loads more speed into corners

10- 15 mph more speed

fat_boy 20 August 2008 06:39 PM

Decat downpipe, remap and either:

Lowering springs
Brake upgrade
ARBs and droplinks.

fat_boy 20 August 2008 08:30 PM

ok then what should i get to hit the 300 bhp mark

Aaron1978 20 August 2008 08:41 PM

decat, fuel pump and a remap and decent filter will help:)

Mikkel 20 August 2008 09:25 PM

300bhp on standard WRX brakes and suspension... you are a brave man.

i agree the brakes on my old 03 wrx where awful, i put some group N discs and ds 2500 pads on the front and couldn't beleive the difference.

i'd listen to some of the comments about suspension and brakes matey.
as codie says you'll need a new turbo. maybe the decat fuel pump remap and some discs and pads. Should be able to get that lot for around 1200 quid:)

What's brave about that? It's all about how you drive. I would have no problems what so ever running 400 of each on the std setup....

fat_boy 20 August 2008 10:19 PM

yea but that can wait a couple off weeks after all i dont use my car as a track toy nor do i drive on the roads flat out but obviously they would be on the list but want more bhp first :)
