Tyres on it aren't brilliant I'm considering going on the rollers but want to make sure everything is 100% first and I'd rather it drove exactly how I want rather than try to chase numbers and have a car that doesn't perform as I want it to

I'm only having a tweak tomorrow, still can't decide if I should get rid of the apexi avcr or not, think I'll speak with andrew tomorrow and see what he recommends. I'll have a look round yours tomorrow but you know I like your car anyway

You really don't need the Apexi.
I would have thought that Andrew (unless he mapped this car previously) wouldn't want to tweak a map that wasn't his. I would have thought he would want to do it from scratch.
I'd have thought your car would be ECUtek and not open source too...?
PS I didn't mean to get on rollers to chase figures, I just meant to get it on after the map to check it over and see that it gets decent figures

Yea Tom will Andrew tweak a map that he hasn't put on?? For my full map I am doing it on the rollers not for figures but if it's live I've got a good chance of loosing my licence and isn't worth it I won't be there tomoz tho so let me know how everyone gets on Tom including mine lol

I've spoken to Andrew and he's happy to give it a tweak, I am on an ecutek map and he says that this also won't be a problem. I might just get the special removed then if it's not needed and sell it on. I'll let you know how your car gets on ad, I might look into a rolling road run then but not sure where my nearest awd rollers are?

Is Ad and Andy being mapped today as well?
What time is your slot, Tom? Have you got a full decat on there or just cat back or? Excited yet?

Much happier now thanks found a few more issues which are now resolved and I don't think any standard wrxs will be outrunning me that's for sure I did keep the apexi in the end and now have 2 boost settings from it plus an actuator setting

I reckon it's because you're a gayer although I am now left wondering what was thought of me with all the problems that andrew found today
Scooby Regular

you're a gayer so that's why your engine is fubard, however the opinion of me by the seller must have been far worse with all the problems andrew found today

I'd got the wrong map sensor fitted and it was also loose, the apexi hoses were plumbed backwards. I was told (and the advert for the car stated) that the car was mapped to about 340-350bhp but once plugged in today Andrew found that it was a map to get it to run in uk fuel. Andrew thinks it was a basic map from Lichfield. The apexi needed setting up correctly to show the correct amount of revs and boost pressure etc
However it goes much better now and reaching a nice 1.5 bar of boost to go with it
