Remap today!!!

[Lucky]

Well today was the day!. All I can say is what a massive difference. I was quite surprised at the figures the car produced before the map considering it has only had a back box and centre section. Before the map it was 302bhp and 320lbs torque. After an hour or so of tweaking - 340bhp/355lbs. More importantly it is now alot smoother and pulls like a train in each gear, particularly 3rd and 4th. What a day!

Nice!!!!


I MUST get mine done.

[Lucky]

It was after following yours I realised it needed it!!

[C. J.]

Sounds good . who mapped it for you ?

[Lucky]

Jolly Green Monster.

[Scott.T]

were those figures Surrey Rolling Road or Road Dyno.
Sounds about right though for the 2.5 STi,nice fat torque figure.

They were road dyno, tho', one of the guys went straight to a rolling road this afternoon (not sure if surrey or not), which near as damn it gave him the same figures. Saved me doing it as i'm skint now - lol

Mate, that's great stuff. Bet you are well chuffed!

For those that i havent told i got a call from dave at gatwick subaru today to say it was all good on the engine side of the blue smoke story, but the turbo has been sent away for pressure testing as a little oil was found in the down pipe!! Once this problem is over come i hope to carry out my remap on saturday! fingers crossed!

good news engine is ok rich. Time to get uprated turbo i reckon.

Yeah it would be a good time what with a remap due also! but its the cost of ,say a vf34?

Don't get him started mate. I can here him starting to shake with excitement from here!

Only kidding of course Rich

Ill wait to see what dave recommends when the report comes back, he'll know whats best for sure. i hope

Dave will give you good information for sure.

But Dave will always play it safe too, which is no bad thing. It depends on what you want at the end of the day.

What i want is to go to germany with a pretty quick car but i will also play it safe!!!!!!!

Then you couldn't go wrong with getting your turbo fixed, Scott mapping it and then going for it when you get back.

AFP4H – is based on a TD04 this is available new or fully re-manufactured on an exchange basis. It is fitted with a new high efficiency, high flow rate compressor wheel and compressor housing which is capable of maintaining the fast spool up rate typically associated with the TD04 but with the ability to run higher boost efficiently over a wider rpm band. This turbo has been tested to levels in excess of 320lbft and 320bhp. With full boost still coming in as low as 2500rpm on a 2.0


£400 exchange (includes 12 months warranty)

I have got all my bit's at bargain prices it's just the hunting that takes time.
Germany cool have a great time,Wedding remember it costs double to get out ,Puppy's make very good kiddie substitutes,Honeymoon Travel lodge are doing £19 deals again and bigger house offer to put up a big shed.
I should be a money saving expert

Nice result and interesting to see what can be had from a relatively stock STI Hawkeye. Must make for a nice daily driver. Is that with both CATS all still in place ?.

Cheers
