Depends what spec the Belgium import is, but most likely to be UK spec parallel import, so no difference to a UK sourced car..

0-60 is 5.9 according to the brochure

The biggest improvement in power i saw, was with a dawes device, (set to 1.1 Bar)

I paid £10 from a mate, but can be had new from about £30 i think.


Im sure lots of people will dissagree with me though



And where can you get a full valet for £30...?

or better still, leave the spare wheel, jack, tool kit, back seats, boot carpet, CD collection, contents of your glovebox, blah, blah at home

you will get some gain from £150 odd of secondhand exhaust, plus a better filter etc, but you get a huge gain from an Ecutek re-map for which you are in for something upto £750. Budget maybe £1,000 to give you around 250/270HP which should give you similar to WRX PPP figures.
