there is no reason why not.
The ppp has never been type aproved, so all ppp cars come as normal cars and have the ppp retro fitted.
The import emissions are the reason for this.
I dont doubt they will simply reinsert the original ecu or perhaps tinker so that it can obtain the power on uk fuel.

A truck with various Sti and 2 Sti Prodive have been saw near Paris last thursday. The cars will be available for the journalists on December 7 : I will send you a summary of the comments from the French magazines as soon it will be available.
Sti Prodrive would benefit from a specific Kenwood autoradio. In france, the Sti will have 2 "Suretracks" (front and back) which would not be the case in all the European markets (?).
It is also said that significant "hidden" difference exist between Wrx and Sti, a lot more than the differences indicated by Subaru France.
We will see.
As you, we consider in France that the price difference between a Prodrive and a Sti (FF 24 000, about £ 2 400) is a little bit too high for cosmetic only. However, I must say I have ordered a Prodrive, since I do not appreciate the Sti back without the Prodrive look. Mine should arrive at the end of december.

We have no choice of color for the Prodrive : blue and that's all.
The price difference between Sti and Prodrive is Euros 4 000 which is may be a little bit less than £ 2 400, let's say £ 2 200.
