but can you buy a Prodrive Performance Pack for an older car. I will soon be in the market for a 99/00MY Impreza Turbo and want one completely untouched/standard. My question is if the car has say 30/40k miles on the clock and I am the second/third owner can I get a PPP fitted??? Any help would be greatly appreciated as this has been on my mind for quite some time.

Yes you can, but there are many other options avaliable to you to get even more power for around the same cost.

It depends on a few things

ie: what you do and what the dealer is like

bear in mind that on that type of age - you have really got a warrantee to invalidate apart from the extended warrantee.

I've got an MY99, with Scoobysport system. Dealer was AOK with that when it went in for some warrantee work last week

As Sammy sez, PPP on older cars is OK, but you can get more personalised and punchier performance for the same price.

The only thing that PPP will aid in (IMHO), is re-sale value (and not by much!)

Talking

And a 2000 car's warranty will run out at the end of this year anyway, the 99 car obviously already has....
