<< Nice to see you all answering the guys question You will find that wallace performance have mapped at least as many cars as Mr Forrest, with similar results. I am sure Andy himself wouldn't argue with that. Also all mapping at wallace perf. is done on a state of the art dyno. Not many privateer mappers can say that. And yes, of course it is worth it! Oh, btw, thanks Russell >> Russell - I never said that Gavin and yourself were not good at what you do, I just feel that on tuned Imprezas, Andy has a proven history and has "cut his teeth" on these types of cars for a long time and can get fantastic results! FOR GOD'S SAKE, THE GUY RUNS A 550hp STi 5! Mapping on a R/R does not mean that it is done better..........Shall we call Bob in Swindon and ask him? or Pat in Essex? or AndyF? or Paul? or me? Both Gavin and Andy have mapped EcuTek and Power FC equipped cars for my customers and myself in the past and both have mapped the cars safely. If you have a fairly standard car (decat, D/V, filter, fuel pump), live in Aberdeen and want an EcuTek map done locally then Gavin and Wallace Performance are capable of giving you good figures on your car from one of their EcuTek remaps. Andy get my vote for the Power FC stuff! Best option is to speak to previous customers of WP (both AWD Motorsport and private customers) and get their views and make an applicable decision yourself!

DOH! - working over here in India has really FU***D with my head! 10th of JULY! Russell

Hi guys, I thought we might have a wee barbeque up at the Linn of Dee on the Sunday 10th of July assuming the weather was good. have a splash about in the pools and have a fun day out. Plan was to get loads of food and the barbeque, head out the Linn of Dee for lunchtime-ish via some "pleasureable roads", set up, party till early afternoon with music, pool jumping - and sunbathing for the girls (oogle, oogle!) - and call it a day about 5pm. Anyone in the Aberdeen and surrounding areas interested. Its not really a PR exercise just a load of Scooby nuts and thier partners having a nice day out (kids are welcome as well!) List down if you are interested as I'll need to figure out numbers before I go to COSTCO for burgers, chicken, etc. Russell

Sarah, I'm home on Thursday if you need any technical support over the phone, etc. Russell

I'm home for this one. Cost? Open to any one? Russell

Go see Andy, trust me on this! He'll get you the figures you want! Russell

MY00 STi6 RA V-Ltd? Russell

John - I get back onshore from Indai on the 29th. If Alford is after that then I am happy to offer my services if required. For a free shot on the track of course! Russell

Cooltek stuff will be fine for a D/P but they only do it in 5m increments :-( I've used it on several D/P's I've fitted and all are still OK! Russell

I agree with John, I was just about to post up about armourfend, they supply the kits for the Lotus Elise Russell

<< Fairdoos Carl - yer probably right ............ Could we not hire Alford for a night for some fun ( too late to organise now but a thought for the future) Can't wait for the Northern meet @ Alford bty >> THAT SOUNDS GOOD - Hope I am back from India for that one! Russell (37 degrees out here and sweating my BOL***KS off!) ps - Marc, the tan is coming along nicely, I'll be as bad as you by my return

Christ - My old car (RED MY97 - ask Grant at AWD about it!) made a 12.02 last time out at Crail B4 I sold it. New car will be even faster! Shame I am still offshore at the moment! Russell

Marc - got your info through from the local PLOD then? Russell

Would have loved to come down to see you and theguys, show you the car, etc but I am Offshore on Monday (28/28 out of India, SUNTAN TIME!) Russell

Yep! Saw it Thursday morning, only £3.50 to get in to see it (before midday). AWESOME - brings the whols thing together, you'll never believe me if I told you what happened. Natalie Portman looked great, even with the "extra weight" Russell

TDO5 F/E - good for 340bhp, good spoolup VF34 - same power but better spoolup, ideal for a UK car with a 7000rpm limit! Russell

I agree with Coulty, Richard is the man to see. Unless your in Aberdeen in which case, I can get them for £33 for 4 and there's no need to pay for postage! Russell

Legact GTB Twin Turbo - the ultimat street sleeper. Modded one a several months back for a guy in Tarland. It now has twin 16G's on it and (with a few supporting mods) is running 360bhp and 320lb/ft! Look like an old mans car but goes like stink! Russell

Not meaning to p**s on your parade but I heard recently that the manufacuters of these wheels were supplying them to their dealers with a memo stating that these "polished rim" style of wheels were not covered under their warranty, in terms of corrosion, if they were sold in the UK. Seems that the BA***RDS have covered their own a**e. I'd still try a letter to the dealer as nothing ventured, nothing gained! Russell

Too right! Boyakasha might try to use that "the next time" Russell

Remember that if they were bought for a 2005 car, they have a different PCD to the PRE-2005 cars and so they won't fit! If they were bought for a PRE-2005.....I'll get me coat! Russell ps - might fit the classic if the ofset if 48-52

AFAIK, you can 1/ get an STI8 Propshaft for the box 2/ get a classic AUTO propshaft for the box 3/ get your propshaft shortened by 60mm Russell I've had 2 6-speed boxes but sold both on due to project changes! They are getting harder to find!

I agree! I would never go anywhere else (but there is a reason behind that one) Russell

I have a spare, BRAND NEW 52mm white Defi-Link boost gauge with 2nd hand sensor and 2nd-hand Control unit 1, basically everything you need to fit it into the car. I also have a defi mounting kit to mount it onto the steering column (£20 afaik). Looking for about £140 for everything. (Gauge was £110 new, Control Unit was £55 new, Mounting kit was £20 new) Let me know! Russell

<< Not me I'm working till 15th June but you kids have fun. Remember. Mirror, indicate, manouver. >> OH WE WILL
