I do but only as Ive made it easier and quicker to read faults or reset the ecu at a flick of a small switch.

ive reset it now was simple enough thought id give it a try as ive noticed im getting quite alot of turbo lag can put my put down in 1st & dont half take time for it to kick in is this common on the td05 turbos? a friend has a 1993 wrx but has a decated centre pipe & his is loads more responsive than mine any ideas? ive cleaned the boost solenoid, now reset the ecu & i dont have any boost leaks that i know of?

Your mate with the 93 wrx wont have a decatted centre section as there is only 1 cat on early imports and that's in the downpipe.

When does your turbo start kicking in?

oh right didnt realise that, mine seems to come in about 4k but if i put my foot down from pull off it has quite a big lag then kicks in, my friends doesnt seem to get any lag its there straight away & pulls slightly more under 4k, far as im aware & hes aware as he knows the previous owner its a standard 1993 leg wrx car all it has is a hks induction kit, dump valve & a back box
