Hey all

Just about to buy my 4th scooby after having a year out. The sti i am buying has a prodrive certificate but has full 3" decat. I know there might be issues can anyone help/advise

Thanks

Mark

 

Hey Mark, the original prodrive pack comes with a prodrive map and prodrive cats. By the sounds of it your cats have been removed but the map remains prodrive. Yes this would cause problems. Check with the seller, has the map been tweeked since the fitting of the decat?

if you buy the car, give Thwaites a bell and he will check/remap the car

H

 

Cheers H i thought as much

Will pop along to a meet when im happy the car is "safe" so to speak

 

As said it should be mapped to suit.

Simon

 

and the master appears, hope you are wel Si
WMScooby, SI (JGM) knows his stuff too and gets the H thumbs up
cheers H

 

oi oi you big girl the chap said the previous owner spent a lot of money before he got it so im hoping its a remap and to be honest the prodrive certificate was issued by some place called k r power i think not too sure will check on monday with you but hey just meens a trip to bob or thwaites

 

As Simon would confirm a simple plug into the ecu will tell everything you need to know about the cars present state.

 

Fandasydozy here, you?

 

tip top my friend

Ill give you a bell over the next few days

Thanks Mark, didn't end up buying it in the end however have bought a silver blob sti totally standard now. Was speaking with Sy the other day had nothing but good things to say about you. Hopefully meet you soon

Cheers

Mark

What wheels are they buddy?

 

inovit redlines(pro drive copies to me and you lol) originally brought them gun metal 6 months later had them done gloss black at 1st Class Alloys.

whats your plans. skip the middle bit and aim high lol lol

 

i got bk racing ones that look very similar in gun metal grey on mine

 

To aim high is the plan lol

Wheels, back box, flaps and a decent head unit is the short term plan.

Did you do your headlights yourself ? If so i'd love mine doing

Then splitter and some carbon bits mid term. Long term is to knock and exceed the 400 door with similar trq

 

i did yes ,done bout 5 sets now,but had brain wave to do these satin black inside,looks nice but alot of hassle ,if you do them and paint the insides ,leave them a full week before you fit them back together as the vapour in the paint can mark the lens inside when sealed,dont ask lol new lens later lol.

me personally keep the vf35,decat,standard top mount,pump jgm remap etc keep a nice fast usable road car and spend your money on some pro drive lowering springs with 22mm arb and some nice groved discs and pads ,makes great fast road set up with usable power...just a thought i have the above just vf34 will take you a spin and see what you think

 

gents please use our General chat

 

thought that was general he asking advice mate?

 

My last car the white bug had exactly your setup but will pop over when i can if youre up for doing my lights that would be cool

yes no worries
