Launch control limits revs to 4-5krpm whilst stationary, & popping banging, once you car starts moving, normal throttle resumes 

anti lag
After Engine in gear over 4krpm (on boost) take foot off throttle quickly and  pops and bangs exhausts on  engine overrun 

Thank you for that, so I will switch each one in turn and see if it revs over 5000, when I find that one, presumably the other one will be the popping and banging one Like it doesn't get enough attention as it is 🙂

Thanks for that, don't suppose there is any way I could work out which one does which ?

Welcome to the club and very nice 2005 wide track STi.   I assume has PPP 👍

 

there are quite a few in the over 60’s club although won’t admit it. 🤣 I’m near 68 🙀

Thanks for that, I don't think it has the PPP, as far as I was told when I bought it it has an exhaust change and a blow off valve, with a map printout showing 325bhp, there are two switches on front of the dash under the light adjuster, don't know what these do but when I accidently switched them both down once and  it wouldn't tick over less than 2500rpm. !!

Hi all, I bought my 2003 Blobeye in June last year, 72000 miles and in great condition. I had a JCW 2006 cooper S that I did love driving but always had a hankering for an STI.

This will probably see my driving days out asd I am 71 next month and I do intend keeping this car fo a long time.

I have had a full underbody rustproofing treatment on it ( £1100 ) as I don't have a garage and sadly, it has to be kept on the road outside my house.

So I am looking forward to having many fun miles in it, first car I have had where the engine sound is better than the music from the head unit  🙂
