Quality figures min, I bet that was a fun drive back up to Elgin ;)

Yep sure was, at one point I was having "fun" in 4th, decided to calm down and up into 5th, I was in 5th all the time!!!

Andy F gave me a controller to drop off at AWD for you, assumed Andy from AWD called you?

;) Excellent results almost identical to the GB, I'm sure you'll enjoy it, I've used the GB all week to work for a change & still can't resist going for a blast and having a wee :D

Cheers! and thank you again for keeping me right on what you fitted, sourcing a TMIC and the bracket issue too.

Think I would have made slightly bigger figures if I had got it mapped on Optimax but played it safe with 97RON.

WRX or STi TMIC shouldn't make any difference.

I had a customers car mapped by Andy Forrest last Wednesday with a similar spec to what your doing.

2006 2.5 WRX with STi intercooler, VF34, decat, etc.

Andy took it to 1.4 bar; 350bhp and 378 lb ft. Pulls like a train from just under 3000 RPM

Thats a bit low on lb ft should be 400 plus

Curious, what makes you say that, did you get over 400? Thats a "good un" youve got there then!

3 2.5 wrx's ranging from;

378lbs/ft (decat, not sure which RON, 1.4bar)

384lbs/ft (sportcat, 97RON, 1.5 bar)

389lbs/ft (sportcat, 99RON, not sure what bar? Bobby C?)

seems pretty consistent.

No but I got an e-mail from Andy F. I'll give AWD a call tomorrow. Scoob is currently my good running car as the beemer failed MOT today on near side rear brake for handbrake, bugger lol (should get sorted tomorrow though)

Thanks for dropping the controller off at AWD for me ;)

all the similar 2.5 cars Andy has done are around 1.35 -1.4 bar, 340 - 345 bhp @ 375 - 390 lb ft of torque, very slight differences between cat or de-cat & 97 - 99 ron

not aware of anyone getting over 400 lb ft with these mods,

Me: 1.5 Bar - 343BHP - 397 lb/ft Sports Cat 99 Ron :D;)

Yep, love it, and very little turbo lag too with the 2.5, would say the VF34 spools up every so slightly later than the TD04 and when it does, by heck!

Yep, got a VF34 myself....but just on the 2L. Great kick!!

Did you get the interchangeable low/high boost via the rear demister?? :D
