shouldn't make any difference of its being mapped, who was mapping it?
gt motorsport in stoke, dint gain no power aswell, as the ecu is set for twinscroll so it was hard to do done a custom map. it was over boosting before but i not now.
ecu set for twionscroll? eh? the custom map will take into acount what turbo it is, twinscroll or not, unless i've been missinformed, so something sounds fishy to me
From what I understand, for it to have had a non twin scroll turbo fitted to it, it would have needed an up pipe and a downpipe to suit. If its got these parts then there shouldn`t be an issue with anything else. Take it to a specialist

think i will just get rid now its done my head in, the remap only cost 300 but because i said i want happy he only charged me 200, he is a good mapper heard about his mappings before so thats why i went there dont no why i dint gain no power took 4 hours to sort it, only had the car 2 months so goin to the guy who i bought it off and demand money iam well pissed, here is the ebay item that i bought the car from 120193821538 have a look he said it was a twin scroll??
V8Jdm just had a look at the Ebay number .The sti strut brace is missing and the top pipe going to the Ac pump looks just like the way the uk Sti is plumed there .If you look at a Jdm sti ac pump pipe work to a uk Sti ac pump pipe work different angle and position for refi fill up feed
he might have thought it did mate, if i sold my car tomorrow i would say in the ad what turbo it should have not what was actually on it, as i couldn't tell one turbo from another. could you get a pic of it and post it up someone will soon tell you what it is

this is the engine bay from ym twin scroll car, note the titanium strut brace which is a standard part
i know mine is a jdm as been to prosport and they put the chassis number in there computer and it is a jap, but it must of had a new top half out the uk?????
Thats the strut brace on the newage Jdm sti its standard and if you look at the ac compessor pipe work on a Jdm sti to a uk sti the refill nozzle on a Jdm is in a different postion to the uksti .
To the OP - what RPM does the boost come in? My car's a twin scroll & it comes in at 2-2500 RPM. UK STi's tend to come on boost higher than this, say 3500-4000 RPM.

hi guys just found out my engine is a uk sti thanks for helpin me out guys just trying to get money off the guy now he not rippin me off ,
my car still has a little problem what i need to get sorted before i sell, if iam driving and i put my foot down but the revs arnt hight it feels like its holding back like the boost is trying to come in but if i keep my foot down it clears up when revs get high anyone no??? dint show up on a diagnostic, said its the coils?????
since you have had a bad few finds on this car !! I would add an MD321h turbo !! It will give you cracking power once mapped better than a mapped twin scroll turbo and it will be cheaper than trying to add the twin scroll stuff back
go back to him and say, give me 3k back, or whole amount and i'll give you tha car back.
3 k will make a nice amount of power
although think you need to ask him what exactly has been done to the car
just spoke to the seller he is saying take me to court then you wont get nout out of me, he said coz i dint win the auction i cant do ****, but its still an add so think will get trading standards on to it, or might go and see him and so on.
