280 Bhp Where To Go From Here

[wrxcook]

Hi people I'm driving a 2003 wrx ppp just had it mapped at extreme motorsport and it is 280 bhp 1.44 bar boost, the guys there are recomending a boost controller and an actuator to move forward at a cost of £750 with mapping, this is my first Subaru and would like to know what use think thanks

Have kinda similar and for me it'd be aiming for the 340bhp mark.

Basically loads of STi like parts - Not sure if you have decat up-pipe in ppp pack, if not then that. Bigger turbo (e.g. VF34/VF35/TD05-16G). Uprated spark plugs if not already done (e.g. NGK PFR7B). 550cc injectors (STi pinks basically). STi intercooler. Most of this could be 2nd hand.

Have a wee read here : http://www.andyforrestperformance.co.uk/58901.html

Think that's about it ??

Oh, with next stage extra power you should also consider better brakes, and why not handling while your at it !

Agree.

Consider buying suspension bits. Front & rear roll bars and droplinks. No point in approaching a corner quickly if you've got to scrub it all off to go round it !!

I know that does not sound like much fun as phowar I've got 9000bhp. But Improve the handling and you'll go quicker.

You're not going to get much more from the TD04 turbo, so I have NO idea why they recomended the boost controller other than to fleece you. Assuming you have a full decat, your next move is to buy a VF34/35 turbo, 255 lhr fuel pump, 550cc injectors(from STi), STi intercooler and a further remap. Should see you around 330-340 bhp.
