Are you getting the sort of figures expected? What are all the mods you have done?, you should be in the late 300's bhp wise which i think makes most people smile, unless there is a problem?

I am guessing you are looking for bike acceleration from the username ....

Got to be looking at 450+ for that.

It is good fun outrunning bikes

Hello mate. 2002 sti TSL 333bhp 333ftlb TSL ex system with a sports cat as was. Now has k&n Tdo5/20g from S/Clinic re-map. Before the new turbo the car would want to spin in second you really got a punch when the turbo cut in. Now its just so smooth. Free maping it was showing 1 bar of boost at 2900rpm. It pulls all the way round to the red. It just dosnt put that smile on my face that it did. Dynamix i would need more than 450 to get away from my bike 171@wheel 160kg dry I notice you like the ring,I have only done the ring once in the car this year and loved it. This is half the reason for the upgade.Brakes are next on the list.

Evil Dunx here !

MD321H will do it, not cheap but almost dead cert to give 400 bhp /380 + lb.ft, and when it hits, BLAM !

Budget for a clutch tho'. Lateral delivered mine this week, a one stop shop for a quick Impreza !

Do it once do it right !

LOL

I used to have an older car with a 20g turbo running 1.5bar and it put a proper smile on my face when I went thru the gears. I now run a gt35r at 1.5bar and it doesn't have the same feel. Its a far far quicker car but the way the turbo comes in, it doesn't feel the same. I can't understand why you don't have aftermarket headers when you have a 20g turbo as standard will loose you power.

Helo. There are people on hear running 400bhp with oe/headers. There was a thread somewere on hear about porting the oe/headers and getting better figures than some of the cheaper after market one's, stronger to.
