Thumbs up Thanks Andy F. & others!!!

Had my car ECUTEK mapped by Mr Andy F. on Friday morning and want to thank him for his hospitality and hard work. I would also like to thank Harvey, bartop, silverscoobydan, Mark @ Lateral Performance, Andy @ JP4mance.co.uk and Andy @ scoobyteknix.com for their help and advice (In no order & sorry it sounds a bit like an awards acceptance speech ).

I am really pleased with the results and the feel of the car now is transformed...

Yup Dan, Andy F, "he da man" !

Actually your mods are v similar to mine. I have an 01 WRX with an Andy F Hybrid TD04, mapped by the great man himself. However I have a Prodrive BB and don't have ported headers.

How are you enjoying all that low down power mate ?

How do the afp td04's pull higher up in the revs compared to the std td04? When does it run out of puff?

Much better than a std TD04. Better punch midrange, much stronger up to the red line. It's a great "wee turbo".

Road dyno results are normally in wheel output.
Has Andy tweaked the file to display it in flywheel output, or is the result 370/380 hp?

I wish

He does some math once he found out what I had on board and how much I weighed and the software calculates the flywheel output. From reading previous posts his results are pretty accurate.

Those must be flywheel factoring, Andy's TD04 hybrid is good but not that good as to produce those figures as power at the wheels.

best regards

Yes of course Bob, I didn't spend enough money for that to be a whp figure

@Az Sti Type R

The ECUTEK map I have has an "Economy / Sports" mode that is activated by the heated rear screen switch when on full throttle, sorry I was assuming people knew that...


Happy Christmas everybody

Nice one! Those are the kind of mods I want to do to mine at some point.
What 0-62 time must you be pushing now? If PPP is 4.8 then 4.5 ish?
How much did it effect your insurance?

I only have two months left on this years policy so I will let you know the true figure once I renew. At least now though every mod is declared and covered on a like for like replacement basis which originally A-Plan wouldn't do (Even put it in writing for me).

For mine it's 4.6 according to letsTorqueBhp, although whether an inexperienced "launcher" such as myself could achieve that is another matter. Still, let's you compare to mag figures I guess.

My insurance wasn't too dear with all mods declared (though Keith Michaels Brokers), but they insisted on a £500 excess.

Yes, just to confirm it is a calculated flywheel figure.

It has been shown that it aligns with Dastek rolling roads assuming they have a proper dedicated centrifugal cooling fan for TMIC cars.

I laughed out loud.

I wish i could back and do it all again, map for the first time without knowing what to expect.

All parts fitted, limping it to the Andy's, so not knowing even the exhaust note. Then pressing the magic button.
