Default A big thankyou to Simon

The Jolly Green Monster came out to me yesterday to ecutek remap my my03 wrx. The car now drives in all gears without hesitation. 3rd gear feels like 2nd did. The power difference in 5th from what was useless before is unbelievable. I highly recomend this polite, helpful guy if your thinking of having a remap.

Green Panel Filter
H&S backbox.
H&S Centre Decat.
Samco Intercooler Hoses.

Ended up with 257hp and 275lbs/ft torque.

I very happy with the improvement. In the future I might consider sportcat d/p and decat uppipe. Simon said he was very restricted to the amount of boost he could go upto because of the pre-cat in the uppipe.

I don't think he has a problem with that at all.

He came up from Kent to Nottingham to sort me out!

basically the gains would mainly be in throttle response, useability of the power and more pick up in the higher gears.. not disimilar to Martyn's really.

there is a group buy going on in the wales section on here which you are welcome to join but might require you travelling to the meeting area (undecided place) depending on there it is in relation to you

Thanks

Cheers for the reply simon.
Do you offer anything that gains to the region of 300bhp from a wrx or is that something that requires extra components you dont use?? Price isnt really a concern, more power is.

I used to have a 360bhp celica GT4 and it just blows the wrx away all round. Need to try and get back to those sorts of figures

Cheers

I can organise anything you want.. lol..

more than 280 on the WRX requires a turbo change and to get the best from it injectors change..

so set of injectors (STi Pink / Blue or PE 650cc), a turbo (TD05 16g, VF28, VF34, VF35 etc) and a remap would see 300..

There are other mods you could do to get more out of that setup like intercooler but on your car, turbo, injectors and remap would do it.

Thanks
Simon
