Default Just came across this statement on fb subuaru page

Go to a rolling road because no two subarus will have the same bhp yes your car when new was 280bhp but time can take its toll on your engine ie not treated right not serviced right but on the other hand it could be more all depends how much money people in the past have spent on her I had the shape your talking about and when put on rolling road she suprised all of us cause the 280 bhp standerd got blown out the water she came in at 360 bhp it all depends on the machanic that built the engine when it was bourn

EDIT****

Excuse the spelling mistake in the title.......

"bob rawle doesn't know anything about subaru's he just sells remaps you don't need"

"you don't need to map for any mods Subaru's have a self learning ecu"

" a v1 sti engine is good for 500bhp unlike the crap newage lump"

that's the standard sh1te that gets spouted on that page.

the "owner" went as far as banning me and blocking me so I couldn't read it

facebook blocks really aren't that hard to get around.

I take a look now and again for some amusement.
