Hello all,

Had my STi 2007 2.5 remapped at Scoobyworld by Neil today, started off with 296.5 Bhp and is sitting now at 345.6 Bhp with 370 lb/ft torque, that was a decat, walbro 255, K&N and EcuTek, previous to that only mods were H&S Non-Res centre section, Turbosmart Dual Port BOV and Scoobyparts Tornado 2 rear silencer.

Overall a very good service from Neil at Scoobyworld, he was tuning on the err of caution with the potential issues the 2.5's can get without forged internals which I totally appreciated as it is my everyday driver.

I will post up the Dyno Charts when I get them, anybody else had similar results from a 2.5 STi?

A big thanks to Neil, looking forward to picking it up tomorrow!

 

Very impressive torque figures, which turbo you using?

 

Standard bud!

 

Very impressive, would be good to see the dyno graphs

 

Aye! I'm looking forward to seeing them too! Ill post up the dynos graphs as soon as I get them!

Neil said I was running pretty rich to begin with and also that my Turbosmart BOV had a leaking gasket so it threw things off a bit! I really can't wait to get it back tomorrow! Hehe

 

thats impressive results. what boost level was it mapped too ?

 

Got similar results on my wrx 07 if that counts

 

Hey man, think Neil said he was going to map it up to 1.35 bar, not sure, seemingly it was already running 1.1 bar unmapped! Will see on the sheets today.

 

Bloody hell! That's good results for a wrex! Were you running the standard turbo etc?

 

Heres the slips guys!

Once again, big praise to Neil and crew at scoobyworld, crackin job!

 

No is basicly a STI with a crap gearbox lol now

Im running A VF43 with all normal supporting mods

 

Ahh! I was thinking that was some serious mapping going on there! haha!

Im blown away by the difference in the car after the decat remap work! Its super impressive! I cant imagine what it would be like with forged internals and the boost cranked up further!

 

Seen your graphs and old gasket on the counter when i went in for a few bits today. Good figures mate.

 

Ha cheers pal, what time where you in at? was yours in getting mapped too?

 

Bout 12 ish. No picked up a decat centre, plugs and strut brace. A couple more jobs to do before map tweak. It must of been yours they were pulling out of workshop as i left, rumbling nicely

 

Ahh gotchya! I was on the train down to pick the car up about then, I was like a frustrated kid waiting to get the car! Was good speaking to Neil though as I had a lot of questions regarding tuning

 

Hope you got your s/n discount Yeh the other guy (glasses,dunno his name) gave us some decent advice

 

Yeah he was pretty sound, he was showing me the dyno and his own scooby engine he is working on which will be putting out over 500 I think he said

What...Scoobynet discount! Haha! Im sure Neil can explain this one when he sees this thread, I sent him an email linking it up!

On another note, Neil can you check your workshop for a Cigarette adapter Blackberry charger with a coily lead! Mines gone missin out the car, maybe it got caught up with your mapping kit?! I couldnt text anybody on the move up how good the car felt as my phone was dead lol!

 

Hi

Glad you're happy with the performance, it went extremely well on the test drive after mapping

I'll have a look on Monday for your phone charger, we have a similar one that we plug into the cigarette charger, and powers the Dyno handset so it's almost certain to be swept up into our mapping kit afterwords unfortunately . If so I'll courier it out on Monday if that's ok?

I did give you a bit of a SN discount - we didn't charge for the fuel pump

Gave a good weekend and thanks for coming down to us.

Cheers

Neil

 

Alright Neil! Aaah I was only joking about the discount but bloody hell thanks a lot pal! I'm really glad with the caution you have played with the mapping considering the 2.5s histories and it being an everyday driver! I was having some fun on the way home...I see what you mean about the pop around 2500rpm on deaccel! Really cool! Boosts a million times better now too!

Aye I thought you might have accidently mixed it up in with the mapping kit wasn't sure though! If you find it send it on up please! Modern phones have a crap life.

Will buy all my tuning parts off you in future! Thanks again

 

Big +1 for Scoobyworld

Always get great service and excellent advice.

Hope to get my Scoobynet discount in the next few months when my routine service is due and if I can get the finances together an uprated fuel pump and remap. (Fingers crossed)

 

Interesting graphs, can see the turbo running out of bollocks at higher revs, im assuming vf35?

 

in and around the same figures i got with similar mods on my hatch mate im sure it drives well

 

I had a JGM remap on mine (STi with PPP - no other mods except green panel filter) = 358bhp / 380 lb/ft

 

no exhaust upgrade?

 

VF43 Bud! Standard STi UK 2.5

 

ah k

 

I've got 06 hawk Sti , and on stock turbo Simon managed to get
350.8 bhp 400 of torque and 1.55 bar

Mods were :
K&N short ram intake
Fully decat
Walbro 255 pump
Prodrive backbox

I even got switchable maps - standard & custom
