On an MY02 car it made a huge difference, significantly more power. But more importantly just so much nicer to drive, seems to come on cam or on boost much earlier and hold it for much longer.

Should have been like that from new. In my view it's verging on criminal to own one and not fit PPP. You will be impressed.

Got slightly better mpg too, but I guess 18 to 19mpg isn't too much to boast about.

you would be best going down to scooby clinic and spending your cash mate,,and the best thing about it is you will end up with more power ,,than with the ppp pack

a mate of mine did the same and instead of getting 305bhp with the ppp,,,he got 345bhp by going down to he clinic

You will notice a big difference especially the midrange acceleration when overtaking in say fourth.I got the PPP fitted to my MY05 STI two months ago and am delighted with it.

Excellent can't get better than free

OK £ for Bang, PPP is not the best but maintains your warranty and will certainly transform your car for the better

But if you have to buy it, you can't beat the SIDC deal above

I had a standard 03 STI and traded it in for a 05 STI when they were offering the PPP for free. Great for free and a big difference. Change the centre section for a deeper burble and even better throttle response.
