Cool

I picked up my MY99 Impreza Wagon yesterday from Donalds Subaru in Peterborough, and had it dyno'd this morning at Clive Atthowe in Norwich. It's a standard UK car with no mods whatsoever.

I did do an ECU reset last night (using the green/black connectors under the dash) and have run a tank of Optimax though it.



Not bad eh!

Similar figures to the dyno pages. I'd have expected the car to have been taken past 5500 rpm though

Is the ECU reset as worthwhile on the MY99 and later cars? I thought the ECU's adapted to optimum settings automatically much more quickly than the older cars?

It made a BIG difference to mine when I did it last night. Really drove a lot better afterwards. For the sake of the 2 mins it takes to do it's worth a go IMO.

Nice to see a graph with power at the wheels. Most on the graphs tend to miss that one off and thats the most important one as it shows how much you are actually putting down on the road .

Not a bad set of figures for a standard car.

Cheers
