PPP, does it take away the initial 'impact'?
HI, my insurance is up for renewal soon so considering getting the PPP for my MY54 STi. From what I've heard PPP is well worth getting (I want to keep my warranty so is the only mod I can consider) but does it smooth the acceleration out too much. What I love about my Scooby is that initial impact of the acceleration that gives you whiplash as the boost kicks in. However, I am disappointed with the 'pull' after this, hence looking at getting the PPP. As the PPP makes the car more refined and has a wider torque does it mean that you won't get that same 'impact' o the acceleration?
Ny feedback would be greatly appreciated as I don't want to spend 2k and find out that some of the fun factor has been taken away.
Cheers, Toby

TSL with warranty their work for 12 months, depends how long ur warranty's got left.
ive got the 333 pack on my Sti 8 and its BLoody fantastic.
it only really voids the engine warranty, all other things would still be covered with subaru id presume and TSl cover the engine. jobs a gudden
I spoke to them about the upgrade and they stated they have done over 400 scoobs in the last few years since they started doing the pack and not had one go bang. so hope im not the first

tsl 333 is a good pack but please dont think that subaru will be understanding if you had a problem
everything is connected with the engine and they will not touch it if tsl has
clutch ,brakes,suspension,gearbox,wheels,cooling system all relevent to increased engine power
you have to accept this dumps the warranty
