ANDYJDMSTI Posted April 1, 2006 Posted April 1, 2006 Best way forward is not to worry about it as you only have about 300bhp compared to his 330, so you are bound to get smoked!!!! Mods to consider- decat, induction kit or good panel filter, bigger fuel pump, Andyf remap total cost approx £1500
doorman Posted April 1, 2006 Author Posted April 1, 2006 Sorry andy,but the STI is only standard factory bhp 265 i think.
ANDYJDMSTI Posted April 1, 2006 Posted April 1, 2006 aaaaaahhhh, when you said import i assumed JAP import [] Well there you go, even more reason to not give a stuff [] 265 vs 330.............bit of a no brainer really!!!! Also throw in some equal headers and that should take you more or less to your 2k budget []
G.T. Posted April 1, 2006 Posted April 1, 2006 GMAC made 350 bhp with full meercat exhaust uprated fuel pump aps cold air induction kit and andyf remap from a std sti 9 uk model
Gumball Posted April 1, 2006 Posted April 1, 2006 sorry to hear you got smoked off the local goat in the evo. as andy said, theres stuff you can do within the 2k budget that will hopefully see your nasty foe off. Bearing in mind..........his might not be standard either
dan_jess Posted April 1, 2006 Posted April 1, 2006 My mates Celica had 555bhp and blew the local fast Evo, to be honest the Evo was a machine but had nothing compared to the Celica! The guy was honest and admitted defeat, but not b4 booking his car in2 Seditas Motors to find out why he got destroyed from such a lesser car haha! Ive been in the Celica and it was hoor a fast! But i no a faster more Orange Celica GT4 ST205![]
ANDYJDMSTI Posted April 1, 2006 Posted April 1, 2006 Bearing in mind..........his might not be standard either Good point.........would be a shame laying out all that money just to get savaged again. Then what????? []
G.T. Posted April 1, 2006 Posted April 1, 2006 guess the moral of the story is just because you own a subaru doesnt make you king of the road in most cases id think there is always somthing lurking to smoke you guess you have to take one on the chin every now and again you had anymore bother with the natives doorman you should maybe read the thread on gumballs injectors for sale makes for a very good read
Gumball Posted April 1, 2006 Posted April 1, 2006 I got pummeled off the road and i mean smoked by a Peugot 205GTI Some times you just get burned and thats it[:$]
doorman Posted April 1, 2006 Author Posted April 1, 2006 Cheers G.T,was maybe thinking of going down the ppp route but heard that they dont touch imports mine bein a euro.but due to the problems av had with the euro warranty,im more likly to go and make it lame!
chris_c201 Posted April 1, 2006 Posted April 1, 2006 Doorman... is the Evo Black and does the reg end in ZXR??
Gumball Posted April 1, 2006 Posted April 1, 2006 We found the pug afterwards and examined the engine bay !!! It was 300bhp
G.T. Posted April 1, 2006 Posted April 1, 2006 do ecosse not do t16 conversions for the little pugs would maybe explain you getting smoked gumball is that not the engine they used in the grp b rally cars
doorman Posted April 1, 2006 Author Posted April 1, 2006 am not sure chris c.All that i remember was it 54 plate FQ3........?
chris_c201 Posted April 1, 2006 Posted April 1, 2006 Ah ok... one i'm thinking of is a 53 plate i think.... n/m

chris_c201 Posted April 1, 2006 Posted April 1, 2006 The local one with white wheels Chris?? Ex owner now has new M5. Yip..... I thought he still had that as well as the M5.....?
doorman Posted April 1, 2006 Author Posted April 1, 2006 Class jc,but next time it could be some mother with 3 kids in the people car facin Evo vrs Scoob on the tram track.just makes you wonder,what if?
doorman Posted April 1, 2006 Author Posted April 1, 2006 can someone explain something about these HKS exhuast systems for new age imp sti plus costs.Would fittin this system need a wat do u call it,atlas??
ANDYJDMSTI Posted April 1, 2006 Posted April 1, 2006 Alot of money for 3 little letters IMHO. You can get yourself a good full stainless system made up to your own spec for around £500
warby Posted April 1, 2006 Posted April 1, 2006 Mate dont worry. I had a UK STI8 and went for a standard @ 265bhp to 343bhp and 339lbft with a full decat, custom zorst fuel pump sti panel filter and a remap by richard bulmer, and it cost 1673 quid. So you will have change out of your 2k to go burn some fuel kicking the evos a s s.
