Default PPP question

Hi all,
just got my scooby today,its a 03 wrx 225,but it has also had a PPP pack fitted to which i have the certificate in the glove box.
this car seems much more responsive than my previous 02 wrx 215 and i was just wondering in Bhp terms what it will roughly be running at.
thanks
alan.

the PPP pack seems to have eliminated the turbo lag of my previous model.

The PPP pack really brings the standard WRX alive, about 261bhp as mentioned. Shame they didn't also upgrade the mediocre brakes, but no matter its still a v.good improvement.

Get some good discs and pads and the difference is night and day. On my 03 wrx i put some group N discs from TSL on with ferodo ds2500 pads and the dfference was quite remarkable.

Yep I'm sure it would. I drove a rex ppp when I was shopping for a scooby, coming from a honda. The WRX PPP felt awesome to put through its paces but the only thing I didn't like was the brakes.

Ended up buying a STi PPP but even with the Brembos the brakes don't feel that special

I was thinking maybe its just me.

Again, get some grooved discs(Ian Godney on here sells some very good value ones) and good pads (ferodo ds2500 i have these on this car too now).
For the best set up on brembo's Performace Friction discs and pads.
