2005 subaru sti wide track good for 400bhp?
hi guys just wanted to know on the 2005 subaru sti wide track is it possible to get 400 bhp reliably this may be asked a lot but im fairly new to scooby club lol
|
yup it will be fine, require a new turbo and injectors and a few other bits, newage sti cars are good for about 450, some people are way over that with no problems.
|
450/400 on mine love it:thumb:
|

Oil change every 5k imo.
This is what I run on my standard engined JDM 2ltr widetrack: Attachment 68856 It goes like badgers **** off a telfon shovel! |

Yes... JDM uses equal length (awesome!) headers.
UK would need: Panel filter Appropriate turbo Remap Decat / Sports catted system Injectors - or standard pinks will get you just shy of this figure Standard TMIC will just suffice at this level You may need to get the oem cast headers / up-pipe ported.... not too up on the UK set-ups and what is achievable. I think you'd struggle to get 400ftlb on a UK 2ltr, assuming you look at using a 400bhp turbo. |

md321t, walbro 255 pump, 3inch turbo back exhaust. Sti pinks are good for 400 but anymore than that and u wanna go bigger and a map
|
A JDM should be no harder to insure than a UK car.... you just need to know the right brokers to use. Keith Michaels on here is well recommended (see their detail in the Insurance Section). That's who I and many others use.
As far as I know the JDM engines are "just better" with better heads and valvetrain. You also have the "better" twinscroll headers. All this provides a better base for greater torque. UK engines rev to 7k whereas the JDM's rev past 8k. |

sorry but what is pinks by the way

Ive been quoted around the £6k mark for upgrades for my 2005 sti to reach 380BHP, by Roger Clark Motorsport, I guess you could achieve bigger figures for less money but i believe you get what you pay for.Nice to know peoples thoughts though as the thoughts crossed my mind to sell mine and go for a spec c, theres not a lot about though!!!
|
6 k to take it to 400bhp? hmmm
|
6k to get an STI to 380bhp?? Feck me do they supply the car for that aswell?

Depends if you do your own spannering, where you take it, new or used parts etc etc.
I'm going to buy used parts as I always have, fit them myself then get it mapped by a reputable mapper, I would hope to achieve 380 for around 1200 at the most. Mick |

Best thing to do would be make a shopping list then price all the bits you want, then get a price for fitting and mapping, or ring somewhere with a good rep and get a package price off them, there always seem to be a known specialist not too far away from most parts of uk.
If you're not doing the work yourself I would find out who can be trusted with your car within a distance you're willing to travel and give them a shout. Hth Mick |
