Default Forester Questions Help please

Hi All

Can you have a remap for a forester XT 2004 model?


If so were
how much
how much bhp tq etc


Do you think they could be targetted for theft?

Yes
Prodrive via your dealer
Not sure of cost - ask dealer
Spec is here - http://www.prodrive.co.uk/uploads/03...ster%20PPP.pdf
Foresters do get stolen but are not as targetted as Imprezas/WRXs

HTH

NB Other mappers such as BRD, TSL, RCM may also be able to help. But this would almost certainly have ramifications as far as your warranty is concerned.

I think the Forester ppp is about £1600.

MY04 so 177ps standard , PPP takes this up to a smidge over 200 as I recall.

If you are less concerned about your warranty, the a 2nd hand TD04 ( about £100 ) and a ecutek map ( <> 650 ) from BRD/TSL/Xtreme et al should see you up around 230-240 with still a decent safety margin.


Foresters still appear to be relatively invisible to the ******* , and long may that continue.

Cheers
Steve

According to Subaru & Prodrive websites they still only have a MY03 PPP. When I enquired about a MY04 pack in the Spring Prodrive told me they were working on it.

A remap can always be done, just not necessarily by the delaer/prodrive

The Performance Package IS available for the 04MY Forester XT, details are the same as the 03MY that appear on Subaru's website.

Out of interest how long has it been available for? When we asked about it at a local dealers a couple of months ago they told me there wasn't one!

We are working on PPP at the moment. Larger wheels and 330mm brake kit are already available and we are looking at some other chassis upgrades as well.

Presumably, you mean the 2.0XT? If so, I'm pretty sure the answer is yes.

Look here for more info.

MRT in Australia is using ECUTEK to modify the 2.5XT. They seem pretty impressed with the results, but havent published them fully yet...
