Is that what was getting done at tims?
He has a nice RA, the bugger

Yeah, all done now. Nice to have someone a little more local than Richard Henry's!

Good good, yeah he's not too bad is tim with imprezas and evos. He's got a good project going with the RA I must say.

They look good.

One thing I'd do, update the front grille. It'll look even fresher then.

I don't think that grille would be a straight swap, would require a different bonnet/lights.

 

[imprezaworks]

Correct ^^

Sorry, I didn't realise that

 

[Mr R.]

I love this car, great work.

 

[_Tom]

Looks great. I'm surprised you still own it though..

 

[Mr R.]

Im glad he does.

 

[leeds_182]

Im glad he does.

Cheers, just keep doing little things to keep me interested.

 

[yeecup]

Love it

Getting the new fuel pump fitted today (255) and banging the hks panel on there while they're at it.

Was talking decats with the mechanic who's doing it and he reccomended decatting and that a remap wasn't required but there seems to be a couple of points of view on this. Some say it'll be fine and others that the car will implode!

 

[yeecup]

So much for staying standard lol... Decatting it will require a remap to be safe and to get the most from it. But you sold the ecu to do it. Personally I'd leave it be, gains wouldn't be worth the cash unlike on a uk turbo with its feeble 210bhp.

Standardish! Decats easy enough to swap so may give it a shot to see if I notice any difference.

 

[yeecup]

Downpipe lets the turbo spool quicker and give some extra horses but will run lean

 

[leeds_182]

This stuff gives me a headache.

 

[imprezaworks]

As per txt mate, it will require a map to make it better.

 

[trails]

you will get boost spikes if you don't remap it after fitting a decat.

 

[leeds_182]

Just the fuel pump it is then.

 

[leeds_182]

Pump and filter fitted - it was still on the original pump by the looks of things.

Fave pic of the car at the moment;
