Nbd Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 Hi guys, I used to have a classic WRX import which was running around 320bhp. I sold it to go Rwd and 2 years on I have finally realised my error. I'm looking to get a blobeye or hawkeye in the near future and as the STI is out of my budget it will need to be a WRX. I ideally want it to be around the 320bhp mark again (if I can afford it and without the need to start forging). Do either the blobeyes or the hawkeyes modify / remap better than the other? Is this a reasonably achievable figure without paying more than I would for an STI? Any help appreciated! Thanks, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JusNoGood Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 I have a blob (for sale [emoji2]) with 272bhp currently and it's pretty much standard, all cats etc. My mapper said it would hit 290 easily just by putting on an uppipe without a cat and remapping (think he said uppipe). I think Duncan has a guide on his site taking you through the stages...racedynamix Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nbd Posted June 16, 2015 Author Share Posted June 16, 2015 Thanks Jus, I had a look on the racedynamix website which answered most of questions! I took a look at your car on the for sale forum, it looks very clean and up for a very fair price. Unfortunately I'm after a blue or white one otherwise I'd definitely be coming to take a look!

Nbd Posted June 29, 2015 Author Share Posted June 29, 2015 I've found the following on eBay (hopefully I'm allowed to post the link) http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&alt=web&id=121686162552&globalID=EBAY-GB It's been taken up to 350bhp. I know 320-330 is the norm with those mods, is this likely to have engine problems sooner due to the extra strain or is this still within the engines capabilities?
