Default how to get 280-300 bhp on MY00 uk ?

hi all,

I have a subaru impreza uk turbo 2000 PPP(w reg), it has the prodrive performance pack, 3 inch exhaust system by prospeed.

what other mods would you suggest for me to get to reach around 300bhp?

i was thinking- walbro uprated fuel pump 255lph,a panel filter or induction kit, and a remap at powerstation?

also as the car stands with its current mods and with the PPP, what power would it be roughly?

any help will be much appreciated.

cheers

Your almost there, ditch the induction kit off your list add a VF28 turbo and get a JGM, Bob Rawle or Andy forest remap and You will hit the 300 easy.

Without the VF28 your looking at around 275 with your TDO4.

As said, you need to ditch the standard turbo, these run out of puff around the 270-280BHP mark, Any of the VF range of turbo's will see you above 320BHP and TD05 will see you pushing a little higher but they are lightly slower to come on boost.

I have a VF28 on mine and once mapped it was just as quick at spooling as the TD04 that comes as standard but with so much more grunt. The UK turbos should of come the VF28 as standard.

You don't really need to change the fuel pump unless you really want too. I'm running standard pump, injectors and fuel pressure reg and I'm seeing 320-330BHP and have done so for the last 30K, My car is currently on 115K and still won't die.

Worth replacing the panel filter with something like a green cotton/K&N or an STI one, These only cost around £30 and well worth doing.

The Turbo can cost anything from £125(Thats what I paid ofr mine off ebay) up to around £300

It's the mapping that will get the most out of the mods. Bob is well worth going to see as is Andy F JGM or Pat Herbourn(Spelling)

will the vf28 or vf34 turbo be just a swop over from my td04 or will it have to be converted?

there is a vf28 on ebay from a 2002 sti which has done 35k miles for £140?

Its a straight swap.

I did not think that VF28's came on 02 Sti's but I could be wrong, price is ok if its correct.

All VF series turbos are straight bolt on to an MY00

02 STI's didn't come with VF28's though, thye came on P1's and STI 5's. 02 STI's come with a VF30 unless its a type RA as these came with a VF34.
Blobeye STI's on came with a VF35 which is a good turbo, more commonly available than the VF34 so normally cheaper and the fastest spooling of the VF series.

The VF series is a direct replacement!! I had a VF34 on my old classic which I paid 450 for brand new and made one hell of a difference!! TD05's are stronger but as said above are slightly laggier (a word?) than the VF's

The vf28 has transformed mine I can't fault it at all... it's a worthy and cost effective upgrade, still running mine with standard top mount without issue.

Get it bought we have one in Mid wales and I think Andy from ace looks after a few that are mothballed so it would be nice to have one running around South Wales.
When I win the lotto I'll be getting Mr RCM to build me one in white please .Si fancies one also so I wonder if they will do a group buy
