I have bought a MY02 WRX and am considering purchasing the PPP. At £2000 I think its a bit dear!
I understand that bhp is increased to 250bhp but is it really noticeable?
I would be grateful for any advice.
Thanks

Two choices really, PPP and keep your warranty...or de-cat exhaust and filter etc and lose it.

How much do you want to keep your warranty?

Tread water and wait 3 yrs ???

Thanks for your advice guys. I may go down the cheaper route and loose the waranty. If Subaru's are as reliable as im led to believe hopefully I won't be needing it!!

I don't think 2k is dear at all... The extra power will be noticeable.

Depends what your dealer is like with mods and warranty I guess, mines very good

I also think the PPP makes the car more sellable when it come to move on, whereas I for one didn't want a modded car when I bought mine.

Massive until you try something better? For £2k you can have a big turbo and exhaust all setup on your car with the sort of +40% gains most are looking for rather than a +10-12%.
