About 330 -340 mate.

All cars are different though so it's a guess. Lots of factors will give you poor or better readings etc.

mine 2001 JDM STI is running 344.5bhp.. list of mods is similar, apexi induction, sports cat on the uprated zort, walbro fuel pump, FMIC & full remap on a stock Turbo seeing it hit 1.5bar max on the defi's at ScoobyClinic They did say thats high figures on a stock turbo & usually with similar mods hit between 320-335bhp. Get it on the rollers m8 best way to find out if car is healthy or not

As above 325-345 assuming it's an STi and mapped by someone reputable.

I have a 2003 JDM, so assuming this is the same on both years of car with the gearbox etc, There is a switch on top of the gearbox that tells the ecu when it`s in neutrol, unfortunatley made of plastic and prone to wearing out.
I`ve seen it twice on mine now. in only 3 years. The car runs prefectley smoothly when its not working and will make quite good power, but is usually about 40bhp down on where it should be. If i remeber rightly it thinks its in neutrol and stops the avcs heads from kicking in. Paul at Zen diagnosed it on mine when it first went for mapping.

Obvious fault to spot whilst mapping, your car will feel very smooth from tickover to limiter, BUT there will be no "kick" when the AVCS should be engaged due to a faulty NPS.

HTH

P.S. Diagnosed on mine whilst mapping too !

Mine was mapped on the road, most are, Paul just tweeks on the rollers when done. Can`t hurt to post a graph copy, might be quite hard to tell from this though. I`ll find mine (similar spec) to compare. Could have gone post mapping easy enough in that gap, so as to be not spotted when the mapping was done.

Mine have come from subaru / Roger Clark, think they were about £45, easy part to change but in an awkward position, right on the top of the gearbox.

Really common fault on bugs and increasingly on blobeyes.

Post the graph - there may be another explanation

Not sure if this is a silly question but the car whilst on the on the rollers was with high ron fuel? right? Mine was done with shells V-power. I always use that & nothing else.. if it was done with a lower grade of fuel this could be the same amount of missing ponies
