Any ideas of BHP ?
Insurance want an idea of the BHP once my car is remapped ... any ideas?
MY99 Turbo 2000 Pannel Filter, cat on down pipe, no centre cat, Fuel Pump, Remap by JGM :wonder: |
270 ish?
|
Will I feel the difference ? from Standard unmapped?
|
yes
|
Yeah of course, i had mine mapped by Bob and it was totally different. It pulled harder, from earlier, for longer. Its also so much smoother to drive. I think it was my favourite mod, certainly the most noticable. :norty:
|
awesome
|
As someone already said, its by far the most noticeble mod you can do to your car, had a number of cars mapped over the years and you can always feel the difference straight away.

It's night n day Pimmo, 215 to 265 on my old one, went like a missile for road use.

You will enjoy it ;) But after a while it seems like it always had that power and you want more :)

Mark you need to ditch the downpipe CAT mate! Really restrictive.
Did you get my post about me doing the Fuel pump for you?? Also have you got JGM coming up here to do the MAP?? I'm gonna be ditching the TD04 also mate to get above 300 :) Then it WILL be quick. |
Yea u want as a minimum a sports cat in the downpipe so it will pass MOT. No cat n it will probably fail. No cat in centre pipe is ok as well.
|
A friendly mot tester is always a good bet, mine didnt have any cats and still sailed through. :thumb:
|
So did mine but i always have a Centre standing by just incase ;)
|
Yea well a dealer won't pass it if it's just a tiny bit over. You don't gain much from a straight through dpipe versus a sports cat dpipe anyway as power is limited by the turbo, so worth putting a sports cat in imo.
|
I ran a decat for a while, got fed up changing it for mot's, and also the drone it made(RA, poor sound proofing!)
I fitted a 100cel sports cat when i went fmic, it's quieter, will pass a road side check, and i get a nice 335bhp with it! |
You could always do what I did and insure your car for more bhp to allow for any mods (if you intend any).
I am running over 500 but my policy allows up to 800 and it was hardly any more money :thumb: |
Just another thought, i remember someone saying that a decat is illegal, and technically could void your insurance? Not sure if this is true?:wonder:
|
Very interesting point. Should be fine if all mods are declared to the insurer, but will/can they insure something that is illegal for road use? :Suspiciou
|
Well all my mods are declared so I'm ok: D
|
270 is optimistic with TD04 and no other significant mods. The PPP MY00 is 240 with backbox, intercooler pipes and 16psi boost. The fuel pump upgrade (assuming the OE pump is fine) is of no benefit until you get around the 300bhp area so your list only has the panel filter and centre cat removal which both make very little difference.
You can get a really well-rounded road car on the TD04 but to make a remap worthwhile you have to ditch the original exhaust system. A downpipe with sports cat will solve the MOT hassles, then a straight through or resonated centre section and a backbox may get you near that 270. Kevin |
any ideas what mine might be i will have a hawkeye 2.5 wrx with turbo back decat,walbro fuel pump and remap

Had a full 3" system put in mine and it made 269.7. The fuel pump wont give you anything extra but will be needed when you go for the next set of mods
