As i bought my my97 with ppp fitted i didn't get the old bits?

so:

2 questions:

1. If i order the ppp with my new sti8 will they take the old bits and reduce the price as they are brand new?

2. If not and i do the upgrade do i get the old ecu / rear silencer / fuel pump etc to sell separately

I don't think you'd fancy fitting it yourself - then you'd not have a warranty You should get everything back, yes.

steve - wouldnt the dealer give you some discount if you said he could keep the old bits?

I think he would chuck them in a skip m8!

You should be offered the old bits, although I'm not sure about the fuel pump, but it's up to you. I chose to let Prodrive bin my downpipe and centre.

Since the parts I had binned are worth little or nothing, there's no reason for the dealer to give you a discount for keeping them. Negotiating a discount on the PPP is another thing entirely.

I asked prodrive to bin my downpipe and then found out my dealer would have paid 500 quid for it after the eveent

i may be a muppet but does the ecu get re-mapped or changed?

Folks,

My understanding is that the ECU is remapped, so you don't get the old one.

And even if you get the daughterboard approach, the old ECU is recycled back into the system so you don't get it back either.

I think you used to be able to get an ECU back if you asked, but I don't think anyone has got one back for a while.

no you don't get the old ecu back i.m put a surcharge of £1000 on it so to make sure it goes back.

My dealer put my old downpipe and tailpipe in the boot of my UK300 - but he didn't tell me. Thought I had a mechanic in the back when I hit the first corner of the South deeside road .

Was alway going to ask for the ECU but decided I was on a hiding to nothing !
