I've now owned my 2008 uk hatch 2 months and I have kept my spending down to just some RE002's a full service with all fluids changed and to check it has the ECU update (it does). I want to change it now I previously owned an Evo 7 RS at 380/380 which had a little more go than my Stock Scooby. I now want that similar amount of horsepowers; well at least in between 350 and 380 hp and from what I've read on here a few more torques. What can I do to help me achieve this? Who can I speak with to do this work? what parts will I need? I understand there is probably a section with this info probably mapped out but when I trawled through it I could find loads of stuff on sti versions 1-9 and nothing on 10 and beyond. all opinions welcome.

 

Hi,

You can get to 350bhp with a ProDrive second decat, induction kit and remap. Anymore and you will need to start looking at forging the engine, FMIC, bigger turbo etc....

hi 8ulldog cheers for the reply pal. that sounds like a huge increase for minor mods ?? who can I speak to about having this work done? I forgot to include its not loud enough, I like an ASBO loud subi. what exhaust would you recommend?

 

Cobra.... The neighbours despise me!

 

Contact Rally sport direct and look at the Invidia Dual N1 (awesome sound) just fitted one to my Saloon 👍

Cheers pal I'm gonna have look my next door neighbour is my aunt and uncle in law I'm sure they won't mind me rattling their dinner plates lol

 

That's what I'm talking about it sounds meaty AF 👍the dual singles look so much better. Thanks mate. What's yours running?

 

I took my standard 2.5 to 370-380 without any problems , but then went to a forged build so I could go higher But I may just be one of the lucky ones

My advice would be hope for the best but plan for the worst , the 2.5 is a great engine when properly built but until forged it can go at any time really

 

Cheers mate I'll bare that in mind my max is 400hp (we all say that don't we lol) who forged your motor?

 

358.5/390 with a Haywood and Scott 1 piece down pipe replacing the down and link pipe cats, cossie panel filter and plugs 👍

 

Haha no way!!😀 easy horsepower. Thanks for the info bro. How does it feel running that.

 

After it was mapped really smooth and ultra quick 👍

 

Was forged by Andy kindon up north

 

I got 371/411, forged drop ins on a new short block, H&S 2.5" decat (very loud until I fitted a centre resonator), Mishimoto induction kit and uprated fuel pump (not really neccessary). All fitted by Subaru 4 You in Newbury, so not miles from you in Slough. Mapped by Bob Rawle

holy sh*t i'll look em cheers mate

 

I like a good package deal lol I'm confused though fatboy got 370hp out of his on a stock turbo whereas scoobyclinics package say it requires an sc36

 

Hi I got 376 with 428 torque pretty much the same spec as fatboy coach can also vouch for subaru4you in Newbury, and Bob Rawle for the mapping, it's all about the torque with these 2.5's

 

how do they have such poor reputation when you can whip out torque figures like that? I feel like I haven't made a mistake just by asking for help in one thread cheers fellas 428lbft sheesh

What I've been reading through the posts on here and I've read about a Harvey Trick up pipe and I think it may be a little over kill for what I'm after and sadly I read that the Gentleman that designed it has passed away at what stage do you require one and what does that stage feel like. Again that's all too much for me

 

maybe worth giving them a ring to ask and tailor a package to suit you. they are only examples of what can be done.
