I have been looking for bits and bobs for the WRX since buying it, I know it's only just over a month but couldn't help myself :biggrin:

Managed to pick up some good bits so far from various sources and Scooby owners, the most of it in a performance package off one guy who is now selling his car and had already purchased the bits.

The car so far has a Stage 1 upgrade inc, full de-cat exhaust, air-filter upgrade, dawes deviec and a re-map, so should be running in the region of 275bhp (est).

I have now collected the following bits for a further upgrade but waiting on funds to fit them and get it mapped again once fitted, which is gonna cost a little bit so will need the Christmas overtime, when it gets paid!!

1. Prodrive downpipe with sports cat
2.OE Headers ported
3. Flexi up-pipe
4.TD05H 16G FE Turbo ported
5.STI Version 8 intercooler with y piece
6.Version 7 bonnet undertray to suit the larger cooler
7.STI Version 7 550 pink injectors
8.3 Port boost solonoid
9. Prodrive 255ltr fuel pump
10. Eiback lowering springs

I should then get approx 320-330bhp and 280-300ft/lb torque :biggrin:

Haven't decided on the sports cat or not yet as i have the de--cat but don't want to run into issues with MOTs, what you peeps think?

Well I had a problem in my mot with the emissions and just used red-x and a good thrashing before I got it re checked and all was good.

Thanks guys and for the info Moley ref the Cat!

Time scale wise I am hoping for Feb / March realistically but maybe before as I usually find I get impatient and spend the money before I have it which gets me in trouble :Chair: and I am meant to moving end of Feb so will need some extra cash at that time.

I LOVE the sound of my Scooby Prodrive back box, only paid £110 for it, so worth tracking one down, to add to your list.

A good buy I would like a different backbox as the one at the moment is rather large, so thanks for the info, where did you find yours? ebay?

No SPC Horsham had it "lying about". They are lifetime guarantee so if you find one on Ebay you should be OK.
