Total newbe please could you advise
Hi , i have just purchased my first scooby, 95 wrx import and its stock under bonnet apart from a baileys bov.
i have bought a few thing things off a guy who was breking off a similar car the list is as follows;
autobahn fmic
front mount strut bar
sard trigger boost controller (does any one have any instructions for this)
full power flow decat system and also stainless headers
i also have got some front and rear ebc drilled and grooved to put on but i also need to replace my o/s/f caliper as it has seized can some one tell me how much of a job it is to change this.
i am also not sure about what boost my turbo is running at and wether the boost controller will need to be set accordingly, and would i have to get the car re mapped ?? is there any one near west yorkshire?
i would be grateful for the info and the how tos for the fitting for the above things i would like to doi am not really sure about replacing the exhaust system yet as i have a stainless on there.
thanks very much in advance

strut bar - 6 bolts! 5min job
exhaust & brakes are relativly easy to replace - you need little mechanical know-how do undo a few bolts, brakes will need bleeding up mind!
fmic is a bit of a pain, prepare to cut & grind and swear at your car! you COULD run it without a remap with the fmic, but its advised you do have a remap, or get some more supporting mods & a remap to get to your power goal.

standard, something about 0.8 bar iirc ?
Caliper bleeding, gotta keep the res topped up and keep pumping the brakes so fluid comes out & no air is in there, at some point when fluids on its way out the nipple you gotta shut it so theres no airlocks and theres a good firm feel to the pedal.
what sorta power do you want to go for? youl be looking at the basics first, fmic will require air filter, then id for for say a walbro 255, a full exhaust system + a tad more boost and have it all mapped up
