Yes, there competent at Subaru's but to answer your question your nearest\adviseable mapper would be Andy F. For a power run to gauge figures then either Jap in Ellon or Wallace would do. Get an octane booster in prior to a dyno run though

Note that their dyno does not give a "torque" figure and Wallace does.

In addition, I went there straight after getting mine mapped by Andy F. Their dyno reckoned I had a whole 302 bhp, despite the AVCR being set to peak at 1.5 bar! A few weeks previous, the same car at the same place produced 300 bhp @ 1.2 bar. A gain of only 2 bhp, hmmmm.

They suggested that they could set the car up to give better performance, even though I had already told them that it was an Andy F map.

Obviously, I thought this would be a bit daft. Wallace dyno then gave a more believable 325 bhp.

I'm not saying anything bad about the place, but you sometimes need to take what people say with a pinch of salt.

I heard alot of mixed reports about wallace but i see they are under new management i dont know about change in work force, I never thought about japerformance to be honest just came across the website and have been speaking to the owner and he seems to be a switched on guy.

As I said, I'm not saying anything bad about them as I've never had them actually work on the car. If you're clued up on what you want and what your car needs, they're probably a good bet.

I'm not promoting wallace in any way either. All I said was that their dyno gives a torque figure. It also seems like a very accurate system. As for them working on your car, agree there are mixed reports and not had any experience of the new management.

Japerformance has done a lot of work on my car including mapping.

Very happy with the services provided



edit: Japerformances dyno does indeed give a torque figure.

They didnt when I had my power run and didnt when SIDC had a power run session there. Could be an addition since then.
