Looking forward to driving her once again after so long and and with the power hike.
I also wanted to replace my prodrive springs with coilovers but cant do this until december as thats when i will be returning off my holiday. Will also then be buying the wheels i want to replace the temporary inovites.
While im posting i just wanted to know if i would be ok driving roughly 20 miles off boost before i have it mapped?

20g with the standard ECU is fine. There are gains to be had with aftermarket ECUs of course, but not necessary. Unless of course you want to run more than 1.55 bar without turning safety features off lol.
Newage STi's are a lot more responsive with big turbo than old classics due to the AVCS.
Also, the 20G turbo doesn't suffer from compressor surge like the standard vf35 and so comes on boost harder once it spools.
Lots more to say on the subject.. but honestly.. I'm on my phone and can't be bothered lol

You will spool sooner with the ported headers for sure. But the GT spec headers with flow more top end and will make slightly more power. If you're sticking with the TMIC you will make less power too, but should have better response.
Was that WR1 running it on straight V-Power? Good result if it was!

Muttly turbo I kno a place in Wolverhampton. Go to A and A MOT garage by Timmins waste (just off the Penn road) and ask them to sort it out for you because they know the chap and he does it cheaper for them.

Droping the daughter down to V festival early Friday Morning, anybody give me the heads up on where's the best place to drop her off without getting stuck in too much traffic.
