Arron,
Havn't really notice any difference in mine. But only had mine 2 weeks ago. I must have had a good pump out the Box
as I have had it frequently on the limiter in 5th and not blown up 
once it did, it pulled like a train up to 7.2Krpm in 5th and put 6th it had NO or little boost 
Anyway I have saved a shed load of fuel not going over 6.2Krpm in 5th
getting 200m of a tank back down to 150m 
Tony

A little badgering then a call from them.
Have noticed that the exhaust has a more rich black colour now.
i think it was running lean before as it was a lighter grey colour and I could hear det every now and again in 5th and 6th at high boost.
Seems fine now anyway and I still have good boost!!

Dont think it would have gone bang again as I wasnt thrashing it that much knowing there was a fuel pump fault.
Babber I have had one for months mate.

Nellie,
How full was the Fuel tank when they did the pump ??? I was told keep it as low as possible to avoid splashing around Petrol during changing it. lots of nice foam for it to soak into

Got my motor back on Tuesday (STi 7 PPP fitted).
Funny that you mention petrol smell - mine was minging. In fact I thought that I had a fuel leak.
Haven't driven the STi since Tuesday so we'll see tomorrow.
Can anyone with a PPP comment - do they smell of petrol due to increased fueling?
Look forward to your comments.
