Default What the hell??
Just taken my car down for a gearbox oil change at Dynotech in dartford and whilst I was there I thought id have a dyno run done so I know what my car is running at before any mods. I have a completely standard wrx bugeye. To which I know has been extremely well looked after. The thing I don't understand is when new an standard these are 220bhp and after my run it came out at 231.5bhp. I'm not complaining but how can this be. She's completely standard and a few years old I would of thought that she would of lost a few horses??

Doubt it's JDM then.


Regarding GDA / GDB, I thought that denoted newage saloon vs estate (Wagon)?

The important thing mate either way is that it's not lost any horses, even if the dyno did over read etc.
