I think this is the one where they got some upgrade bits from Jap Performance parts, or so I heard. Will be interesting to see what they do with it anyway. Aparantly it gets mapped.

It wasn't too bad.

Saj came out of it well I think :nod:

AndyWRX 16-11-2010 01:05 PM

Just watched it on youtube, as worzel said think saj came out of it pretty well, but dont really like what they done to it not my cup of tea tbh, i like the way they say in the beginning though when there looking for one "this one hasnt been ruined by any bolt on lights or nasty paint jobs" then they go and stick "ac cobra stripes" down it and at the end thrash it round a track.

Steve_PPP 16-11-2010 01:47 PM

Yeah I'm not too keen at all on how they made it look at all. It kind of had the undercover look going with no wing or sti bits, then they paint the wheels black and stick stripes on it! Also think they could have got a bit more ooomph out of it, although they couldn't really rip the cat off.

Scott.T 16-11-2010 08:52 PM

Quite an interesting watch.....
Ditch the stripes and swap the headlights.....black wheels looked good onthe silver car.
Power was about right for a cat'd car and a TD04, about the same power as the PPP would of been for that year.

Steve_PPP 16-11-2010 09:38 PM

cheers for the links, also just watched that.

agree that the wheels and brembos were a good move. was expecting a custom remap to give a bit more, my PPP bug made 250 on a generic map (altho i guess the PPP removed the centre cat).

but seriously, what were they doing with the stripes? :ninja:

Nige 16-11-2010 09:56 PM

Stripes killed it. Change the bloody lights guy's thats all a bug needs........+ more power & better suspension errr more power + bigger wheels Mmmm more power + bigger exhaust & of course bigger tyres then maybe a better turbo + make it lighter oh ******** Just buy a bloody EVO JOB DONE :drive:

ralliart didz 16-11-2010 10:46 PM

i would like a evo 7 gta next

SpecB 17-11-2010 06:51 AM

Anybody recognise the mapper - I have no idea who/where they were?

Would have been interesting to See Mike and Ed's reactions to Charlies!

Mortster 17-11-2010 07:35 AM

No mention of a Fuel Pump change either ??

Steve_PPP 17-11-2010 08:31 AM

I also didn't recognise the mapper, no idea who that was.

At 240bhp the standard one would be fine. I'm sure the PPP didn't include a fuel pump change on the WRXs either - and they made the same (or slightly more) power.

asperformance 17-11-2010 08:50 AM

std fuel pmp is fine for around 300ish (although personally woulod change it)

never watched it that closely but fairly sure they were at Powerstation??

Don't think it looks right with black wheels and no suspension personally.
