Advice needed on bugeye impreza's....
 
Afternoon all,

Iv been off the scene for a while, and have been driving a Nissan skyline.

The time has come to jump back in a scooby.

I'm thinking of trading with a friend for his bugeye, bug I'm not 100% sure what it is, and how to gain more power.

It's a 2002 Wrx Sti Prodrive on the log book, (its a uk model) but is a uk car. I beleive it's probably a wrx sti type uk, it has a red inlet manifold, Sti written on the top mount and a certificate from prodrive.

What I'm after is a brief run down of what it should have, what power etc and what I can do to increase the power.

It's been a while since iv had a subaru, I know gc8's like the back of my hand, but very little about bigeyes.

Thank you

By the sounds of it sounds like a prodrive style .
265 bhp as standard it's basically a styling pack.
I've had mine ten years and with decent exhaust remap and fuel pump you're looking at 330 - 335 without much fuss.they are the more desirable bug eyes and good value for money .

Thanks Derek,

Also forgot to mention was rolling roadbed at 304 bhp, I'm assuming it has ppp?

Are these ecu's mappable?

Yes they are well mappable denso are the ones fitted as standard I think.
Sounds like you have Ppp yes.
I've had no problems with mine at all great cars .
