Cool

I had mine done just before xmas, and I thought it didn't feel much quicker. But, to be fair, it is winter and I have been taking it very easy.

It goes on the rollers in a few weeks, so i'll be interested to see what it produces.

Gareth.

Milteck and EcuTek IIRC is the best/safest/powerfull way foreward for a STi7 but yet the same price as PPP but if it were to go bang no warrentee

But agree these STi7's diff's just love more power PPP must be sponsered by Bridgestone because the black round bits don't last long with PPP LOL

Tony, the ECUTEK/exhaust power increase costs around £1500-1700 depending on where you get it fitted.

V5,
Nice but could only save £295 on PPP a tad risky

Gareth
3K miles since fitting PPP 50 litre SUL now lasts on average 170m was 145m before PPP

Just had ppp fitted to my STi7 and have a couple of questions:

1) Everytime I lift my foot off the throttle I get this 'whooshing' noise a bit like air escaping. Is this normal as I never noticed it before the ppp was fitted.

2) Anybody who has had ppp fitted for some time could you comment on if the exhaust note changes much after you have done a few thousand miles.

Thanks
