Hi, Ive just bought my fisrt Imprerza after owning skylines for the last 7 years.
Decided i ahould at least try one rather than just being an enemy of one. lol

Well ive bought a 52 plate blob eye Wrx sti with the prodrive package. I think ive started the best way as i need to rebuild it due to a knock from either the crank or big end. Its covered alot of miles but has a massive service history so has been looked after.

But with this being my first Impreza i havent got a clue about specs and whats in the prodrive pack, so far ive found a full Pd exhaust and sports cat but thats it!

Probably going to need advise on the engine rebuild to as i want a reliable 400bhp and decent torque so need to know what to keep and what to ditch.

Cheers Dan

I think all you have missed from the PPP is that it also has an re-mapped ECU aswell As far as im aware thats all that is included in the PPP.

PPP includes;

de-cated centre pipe
prodrive back box
prodrive exhaust tip
Re-mapped ECU

Hope that helps a bit

Someone with more knowledge will give you advice on the rebuild im sure.

Cheers, do u know what the ECU is mapped to?

Well on my 05 Blobeye it takes it from around 265bhp and puts it at around 310bhp as standard. Its a Prodrive remap so if its been properly mapped the ECU would of gone to prodrive to be mapped as they are the only people that can do so.

all the ecu's from prodrive are the same map , all done from one map
if your wanting the best fromyour ecu your best getting it ecutek'd
if yiur looking for 400bhp your going to have to get it mapped any way or go after market if you want anti lag / launch con etc

ps , i dont think iv ever seen a sti with a ppp on make 310 bhp

stu

wrx sti ppp

LoftyMan

Yeah prob is 301 but I thought you can get up to 310 with a few minor tweaks.

stuart148

iTrader: (12)

its stated at 305 but even that is never got , iv seen some on rr days make , 290 ish

the ppp is over rated

just my thought

True pro drive is not great but it's a start. The map is always run rich so no damage is ment to occur. Every Scooby is different so some may get 280ish to 307 all depends on atmosphere.
U need a 2.1 stroke kit or 2.35, not cheap.
And welcome

The ecu is more than capable it has the ecu tek software already on it u need to buy a new license or open source. Lots of mappers but wait for the re build first. And where u from?

stuart148

iTrader: (12)

the 2.1 stroker kits is only £1500 from advanced automotives
iv just bought all my bits for my rebuild from them
i couldnt strech to the 2.1 kit tho :-(
wish i could of

still once its rebuilt its 352bhp , so will just have to save for injectors and turbo then ill have 400 what im aiming for

stu

Md321-t or h turbo
Front mount
740 cc injectors may be 3 port and a good set of headers

stuart148

iv got it all bar the turbo and injectors

stu ;-)

Cheers for the advice. Im from chichester.

Is the front mount nessesary for 400bhp? thought the top mount would of been ok, just dont want to have all that pipe work for no reason!
And whats a 3 port!!! or am i being thick?

dan0228

also what are the pink injectors limits?
