Hi all,

New to the forum hope to know you guys and meet someone of you on the shows and track days

I used to be Audi man but finally get my first subaru impreza STI Type UK

Car is not standard modifications are:

2.5 FORGED ENGINE

COSWORTH RODS,
MAHLE PISTONS,
11MM HEAD STUDS,
MODIFIED RCM OIL PUMP,
ACL RACE BEARINGS,
2LTR AVCS HEADS FITTED,
GT SPEC MANIFOLDS,
3" FULL S/S DECAT EXHAUST SYSTEM,
S215 BILLET TURBO TECHNIQUE WITH CUT BACK EXHAUST WHEEL,
LATERAL PERFORMANCE 750CC FLOWED INJECTORS,
ORGANIC STREET CLUTCH KIT
FRONT MOUNT INTERCOOLER,
340LPH FUEL PUMP,
HARD PIPE KIT,
INDUCTION KIT,
UPRATED SILICONE HOSES,
BC COILOVERS,
FRONT STRUT BRACE,
ECUTEK REMAP BY ADE TUNING,


All engine rebuild and modifications are done by cams performance.

I really don't know what sort of power the car is running but by old owner I was told its running around 530 BHP the car holds the boost at 1.5 Bar

All the work on the car was done 15,000 Miles ago By Brian,

Car is book for health check, service and rolling Road at Scoobyclinic next Wednesday hopefully I will find out what sort of power its running


I will post some pictures of the car and results of the rolling Road ones I get it

In mean time anyone have the same setup as my car? and know what sort of power its running?

Thanks
Nez.

Yes it should be 500hp ish

the s215 is the version of the s206 for the 2.5ltr engine. Good units and reliable too. I run a 206 on my 2.1 stroker at 530hp

Although I can't see it been 500 at 1.5bar. Worth having it checked!

Don't get hung up on figures. Mine makes 530 with a drop of meth.

it should be about 500. But 450 or 500 makes really no difference, you wouldn't notice the difference unless chasing times on the strip etc.

I just want a good 1/4 mile car and fast road car I used to have Audi S4 570 BHP and the Subaru feels faster maybe due to weight as Audi has more weight then Subaru


This was my Audi S4

Not really as long as you keep them into their limited they are very reliable cars i had my one over 8 years no problems what so ever.....

Engine and gearbox is very strong easily can take 450 bhp but then you have to change the turbos and do other modifications to get it to 450 plus everything you do on that car is engine out job x_x

and Avoid CAMS Performance from that . .

Previous owner has spent good money on that spec, but the builder hasnt done their job,
How can the old owner have actually have known the engine wasnt built correctly.
