Does anybody know what power gains i would get from this on my STi5 Type R? It will have a full decat exhaust system and a decent panel filter fitted.

Just had my Sti 5 Type R done by BRD, with the same sort of mods as what you have. Power wise it feels like a nice increase, not sure what as not getting it on the same rollers until may, that rolling roaded it before the re-map. The difference in drivability is huge, it pulls soooo much better, a lot less lag, and peace of mind. What more can you ask for.

That maybe the amount, but you have to look at the bigger picture, Torque will be improved aswell and the on the road drivability. All I can say is the drive back after having it done there was a major grin on my face

I have had a reply from BRD. Unfortunately you can't guarantee a certain BHP gain. As mentioned earlier in the thread, all cars are different and you will notice a lot more torque. PLUS a big smile.

The group buy closes on Fri 26th of March. Please add your name to the list if interested

For an example, my STi 5 with scoobysport downpipe/backbox, std STi panel filter and BRD TEK3 gave 306 bhp and 310 lb/ft on Prosports rollers a month or so ago.
