Ok so thinking of ditching the td04 and sticking something else on can anyone shed some light on what I need and what turbo is best to go for.

Td05 or a vf.

Cheers

 

Also are these cars generally reliable??

 

i put td05 on mine with a basic panel filter upgrade and exhaust made 325bhp. ran it for 2 years now hasnt cost me any money or missed a beat. look after em mate and there usually good as gold

 

putting a TD05 on mine, good for up to 350bhp and generally more robust than the vf's

 

Hang on....some of these aren't mappable without a new ECU or at least a daughterboard.

And surely NO-ONE would be soft enough to start modding a SCOOBY without getting the map done? Would they?

 

I think the op is asking about turbos and pretty much knows that it will need mapping afterwards ..

if not then the op should read all comments ..uk turbo 2000 i think is ecutek only at £550 ...

for the price of the remap i would do exhaust,sports cat or decat, better top mount or front mount ,turbo as said,airfilter either panel or induction ,uprated fuel pump,3 port boost solinoid

i did all the above on a tdo5 16g and got 325bhp

to get the best out of the price of £550 for remap

 

So I need a new ECU for remap?? So far the car has dv full system with de-cat that I no of

 

Had no boost pill so I've made one with a mig tip but its fluctuating a bit and keeps hitting fuel cut in 5th any ideas?? Will it be the restrictor should I go get one from subaru

 

if its 99-00 you can get an ecutek remap, earlier ones need a stand alone ecu or esl

 

I got the oem boost pill from subara delivered for about £6 all in it's a 2mm I believe you need not a 0.8mm

 

I drilled the 0.8 out but think I need a 1.2 as mines a 97 uk2000

And that a load a ****e about the ECU gutted

 

Mines a 96 mate so should be the same which is defo a 2mm

 

I'll have to call em in the morning I just see a list online somewhere God knows

Can I not just get my ECU unlocked??

 

Pre 99 ECUs aren't flashable so you need to add a daughterboard to remap them. 295GBP+VAT for ESL, MAFless, twinmap, knock control, diagnostics, 3d boost control, etc etc and ALS, LC, Flatshift and TC as extras if required.

 

can a 99-00 be esl'd?

 

We are working on finishing that as we speak.

 

Nice! Keep us updated :-)
