i have a 2002 wrx bug running 298.9 bhp it has vf35 ,walboro,sti genome exhaust , japspeed up pipe , sport cat , pink injectors, cossie filter,uprated accuator and remap by dynamics ....... i have a ps3i ecu readr in car and it says peak boost is 1.36 bar does this sound right for the above mods ????? people have said it should be running 315-320bhp with above mods ????????

Does sound a little down on power, do you have any graphs?

kezwaldo

i was thinking maybe wasnt mapped to its full potential ..........it has no torque line or reading i would also like to know how much torque it should have ?????? ive owned car 4-5 weeks and it came tuned to this state and was given the graph with car which was done in january

kezwaldo

bottom line is air -fue lmixture apparently

Yes it is, there is two sheets missing one that shows the boost curve and one that shows bhp and torque. Maybe worth sticking it on some rollers?

kezwaldo

yes mate i think your right also it says its in third gear on bottom right of the graph is that the gear they use to test the bhp.............i did oil change this week and going to fit new plugs next week and new filter and maybe it will push out some more power when i get it on rolling road! ive seen on top gear LOL that a good service can bring a few ponys back to life whay do u think??

kezwaldo

also mate does boost sound ok at 1.36 bar roughly??? for the cars mods??

3rd on a 5 speed UK box is fine, boost sounds a little on the safe side could possibly run a little more

it seems to lean out a bit more near the top end

kezwaldo

i also have this map after digging around and the car is import from what i can see on paperworl i have the fujitsu paper work of im port and original receipt when car was bought new

kezwaldo

im thinking maybe owner wanted car to be a safe 300 bhp to stay reliable?

last owner was maybe just happy with the way the car is lol

kezwaldo

im happy with it too mate but if there was a way to sqeeuze another 15bhp out of her i would lol... she goes very well and a nice step up from my classic uk turbo so im happy too just trying to learn a bit about this tuning lark as last car was standard apart from cat back and filter..........thanks for the replys guys

First off dont get hung on on peak figures, its not the be all and end all. I cant see the graphs at work (photobuckets blocked) so cant see what the afr is doing, if the car is leanign out then i sugest the map needs looking at.

kezwaldo

yes i maybe get it mapped again in the future see if JGM can mayeb get it running better .......the cars not all about power it has sti wheels sti suspension godspeed big brake conversion,litchfield geometry setup and cdf brake stopper good tyres,short shift etc etc so handles exceptionally well aswell.........

tbh it prob just needs some tweaking as im having the same issue myself, didn't have enough time to get more out of my car so going back in when i get the change, driveability is more important than power, enjoy the car and when you have more time get it tweaked

kezwaldo

ok thanks car is mapped already does that mean it has a licence therfore cheaper to remap?????????????? and does it mean i have to go back to original mapper??

Steve's Sti

depends you would need to contact who mapped it, if its open source there is no license, if ecu-tek mapped it will already have a license and you only have to pay for mappers time, depending on what its mapped with you normally dont have to go to same person, but if you change mapper they will have their own base map to start it off

kezwaldo

when i turn on my ps3i monitor ECUTEK comes up on screen so maybe it has ecutek licence suppose best thing to do is talk to a mapper

banny sti

Race dynamix does open source iirc, so wont have an ecutek licence

kezwaldo

hmmmmmmmmm? must just be a ps3i thing or maybe who owned the ps3i before had a ecutek licence who knows???????

banny sti

Bro's car has a psi 3 monitor and is open source mapped but still shows ecutek when it loads up

PSI3 doesnt read whether it has a license or not.

kezwaldo

ok thanks guys that explains it
