Question

My car - WRX 01 20,000 miles

About 4 months ago I bought a Dawes Device from Jamie (www.performanceexhausts.net) and I'm finally getting around to fitting it today. I left it for a while because I have been nervous about warranty issues. As the miles have increased, and the car's nicely run in now, I'm ready.

I've read alot about the device on scoobynet, but having found anything about actual performance figures.

I understand that the standard WRX does 0-60 in 5.9 seconds (as quoted by Subaru), but has anyone carried out a test with the Dawes Device fitted?

I'd be interested to hear both actual figures and assumed.

Thanks.

Bryn


Posted to 'General' because I didn't think it was a 'technical' question.

All it does is increase the boost pressure mate. We can't give you an actual 0-60 figure as it varies on the ammount of boost thats being used. Oh, too high and you'll actually lose performance or even worse, melt your pistons.

Too many variables mate to answer the question.

Glad to see you're going for it Bryn, every car is different, but increases of anywhere between 10 - 25 BHP have been reported, so have fun and be sensible that's the main thing!
