Thanks

I don't think i've seen any UK white/silver Sti's on these boards yet.

Not KT Greens, R N Goldens. Had it on two consecutive days for an hour each time. First on my own, secondly, with the missus when she wasn't at work. Needed her permission to trade the MY00 in, NOT.... Just a good excuse to get my hands on the car again....

In truth though, Goldens are very very good with things like this. Very helpful, and I guess even more so when it comes to existing customers

Cheers

T5NYW,How do you know that this figure is true? Do you know something we don't? Or are you just guessing (which is about right I would have thought)???

Matt,

Tony knows what he is saying - I've tried it and Prodrive say da beast is da best (31Xbhp). Big up da Prodrive in da house.

I'm sorry there can be only one STI on 19's as for being 1st on the list for the PPP, I think we've all been told that

Matt,
The figure is Rumour/assumption after Prodrive day and Mike Woods the Prodrive Devolopement big wig and Fecking good driver took us all around in his UKSti7(black)on the track. Speaking to most people after who'd could then compared it's performance on the day with a 1) STD P1 2) WRX total decat DV and Induction, Std STi7 and a group A Sti7RA
305-310 was the figure most people banded around Speaking to Mike about prospective power as we were Power sliding around the top bend he just changed the subject not even a hint.
THIS IS TOTAL RUMOUR AND CONJECTOR by Big wigs/ salemen at dealers They seem to think a "quote fiqure" of 305bhp with torque of a 320 bhp would be very nice
Then in any comparison to the £32k EVO7 QU @ 310 Bhp verses the £29k PD STi7 PPP'd 305bhp??? might make the scoob a more comparable proposistion maybe better ITHO

Edited to include it's just what I've been told at dealerships and generaly talking to you Subaru Peeps. I have no special insider info from Prodrive. Flame suit on

I think it unlikely that Prodrive/IM will quote bhp/torque figs for the PPP even when it IS released......we'll see

stage 2

Sorry,but they are the ugliest cars in the world.Why oh why did they change the old Scoob.

t888-sti7

Let's set another date for Dirk's power run. My ex-demo with down pipe and full Samco unda da lid with (then) PPP should raise a few eyebrows!!!!

Stage2,
Why did they change the Model 'T' Ford perfectly good car...... in it's day......MK2 Escort..... Mk4 Golf list goes on........

Time to move on

2 years ago I would never had sold my MY99 and bought a Bug eye'd monster till I drove the STi7 lovely family car

Personal preference and all that mine may be slower uglier than a P1 in some peeps eyes but it's mine

Tony
Ps you can still buy the old beauties faster and Cheaper

mutant_matt

T5NYW,

I knew the rumours and what people expect it to have but you sounded like you had some solid info......

I saw the afore mentioned Mike Wood's STi at a recent track day -appropriately with number plate 'PRO 300'. I unfortunately did not go out in the car but saw it go. Very very very fast but I suspect also very very non-standard. The exhaust would not pass any drive-by noise tests and judging by the flames out the exhaust did not have any cats. The PPP will have to have at least one cat to pass the tests.

Conjecture again, but I would guess that the STi PPP will be much less powerful than this beast probably around 290-300 bhp.

If everyones having a guess I'll have one too! I reckon 280 BHP max.I d'ont see how it can pass emissions,run on 95-97 RON,not be too expensive and have 20 BHP over its Japanese cousin.They'll probably charge 2K to put the proper ECU back in!! I know I'll have to eat my hat if I'm wrong but I think those people estimating it at 310 BHP are doing some seriously wishful thinking.Just be thankful if they can get it right this time.

Matt,
Whoops sorry if I gave that impression I Tend to open my keyboard before my brain is ingaged

T888,
Great to see you got the Pic looks great

DJB & Deep Signh,
Yep your guesses are both as accurate as mine
Tony

t888-sti7

Well I have only the techies advice to go on with at the moment. My old WRX, fully decatted (up pipe and down pipe) and Blitzed was reckoned by Scoobysport to be pulling close to 250BHP over the standard 218bhp. Any advice from the guru is alright by me.

As I was saying before, my STI7 with down pipe, Samco hoses through out (I'll get pictures to follow) and ITG panel filter should be pulling close to 300bhp. Of course this is prone to scrutiny - but as Tony has said before, your guess's is as good as mine. What "real" effect does the PPP have on this??? As I have said all along - we'll have to suck it and see. Rolling roads say a lot on the day, but one has to take into consideration a lot of factors and each dyno will have a different reading from the next. Again - suck it and see.

At the end of the day, being an Impreza owner is all about BHP grabbing - I am one of many that is proof of this statement. We are all guilty, but that is half of the fun. Male instinct really - but hey, what the f**k - brag by name, brag by nature - we're all having a laugh!!! even if it costs us a few quid - all in the name of competition.

Talking of braging, I have been informed that my PPP is #0001 on the list for PPP'ing - so there!!!!!!!

t888-sti7

Thanks for the Compliments TW. Could not have done it without your guidance. I'll buy the beers or coke "IF" and "when" we meet up at the pub next door to the dealership (Spike's). Call me (get number from Dale) and we can brag all day

Nice like the lights
I was determined to put morette's on mine but STi7's standard light are good even better with new bulbs so leaving them on.
Now everone is personalizing their STi7's they ere losing the 'Cloned' look

Is it my turn yet.





I obviously like my tunes as well as my privacy.
There is extra go to compensate the weight, ie. Apexi SAFC & AVR controllers + JPI Exhaust + ITG Filter , approx 325 bhp . Great fun.
Cheers

One question though, if you have a puncture those two spare wheels in the boot don't look big enough for 17"'s LOL

MattyB,

Thanks for stopping by for dinner. Was a bit surprised when the young lady was asking for me. Good to put faces to a car (or the car). We'll be seeing a lot of each other I suspect.
