Hi all, this is my first post so bare with me, I have a 2005 WRX 300 and wasnt very impressed with ppp it came with, so I bought a cobra sports cat, 3" de-res centre section and a K&N panel filter and took it for an ECUTEK remap, the mapper said I should get around 265 - 270 bhp and around 275 ftplb of torque,( i was a bit gutted as the car was supposed to be 265 bhp anyway with the PPP) we done a before and after run on the dyno and in PPP form I only achieved 238 bhp, (so much for Prodrives claims of 265 bhp) but the mapper was not surprised at this as he said every prodrive car he sees makes around 25bhp less then stated, so we added the sports cat,centre section and panel filter and Steve (the mapper) went to work with the ECUTEK remap, after a bit of tweaking and about 2 hours on the rolling road we achieved 280.5 BHP and 300 ftplb of torque which apparently is very very good with a stock turbo and a stock up pipe, I am absolutely made up with the figures, what do you guys think?

very good mate 300 or above is good......i was gonna go for a 2004 prodrive sti but i read claims of the ppp onley giving 290 295 so much for 305bhp...so opted for a 2004 sti, since then mines making 320 and 317 torque...u had ur fuel pump uprated as your car cud run lean if not...

yeah really pleased with it had a few probs like,clutch,wheel bearing,neutral posistiong switch but apart from that shes fine...if i was u probly think about gettin an uprated fuel pump fitted mate especially cuz uve had it mapped as well as running 300bhp from standard 230..i had mine mapped when i first got it everything else was standard got it on the rollers and it was running very lean.....last thing u want is to blow ur engine up

I had it mapped at Dyno Demon on the rolling road mate and my fueling was all fine, but to be honest, im ganna get a fuel pump and an up pipe very soon.
