Yes they can be mapped and it'll cost £550+vat for an Ecutek remap with supporting mods. Exhaust, fuel pump, air filter should see 280bhp with 300lbs torque.

As above really.

I remapped through Andy Forrest (Port Seton) and never regretted it. You should change to a more free flowing exhaust with a sports cat downpipe first - eg Revolution, Milltek, H&S etc, to get the beefit from the remap. Expect about 270bhp, which you will notice!

Consider Prodrive springs at £200 + fitting, if the cash will streatch to all that!

Long time since you posted Connor??? You have not missed much.
As above remap for a bugeye is an easy enough thing to do, Prodrive had a deal on a lot of parts at the minute including a PPP upgrade.

With a bugeye have a good listen to the read shocks, they do go. They are my favourite model of Impreza and I am sure you wont be disappointed when you get one.
