savage bulldogs Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 Well didn't even make it back home from the airport car park without a grey haired old boy in a 58 plate skoda vrs over taking me in a national speed limit ,he had a big cheesy grin on his face as he passed which seemed to get the wife's goat lol she said " go on then you either wipe that smug look of his face or pull over in the next lay by and give me the keys " [emoji39] We ended up side by side at the next round about and by by old guy [emoji12] Definitely loving the slightly more stealthy sounding exhaust [emoji41] as once my point was proved and I reached the speed limit I eased off the gas ,he passed me shortly afterwards with more of a [emoji19] look (definitely wasn't a grin anymore lol) God I've missed my car [emoji4] 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaulson Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 Welcome back Savage, glad you had a good experience on returning home ;). Also nice to hear the Subaru was still there! I'd be so worried it would have been stolen or something lol. These past couple of weeks I've been messing around with the dump Valve, I had a Bailey one on it and it just didn't seem to be working very well. So I decided to buy a Turbosmart dual port only to find i needed an extra part, bought that and the damn thing doesn't fit due to the throttle body sensor being too close. So I put the Bailey back on using the new gasket I had acquired and WOW maybe that was my problem ;). Running awesome again with the Bailey. Lesson learnt, don't just buy parts on a whim. I'm now two dump valves up and £300 down :(. Got the Turbosmart and standard recirc on eBay to try and get some money back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I`m thinking of fitting a set of drilled & grooved front disks. Will normal pads fit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
savage bulldogs Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 As long as the discs are the same diameter and thickness standard discs standards pads will fit fine fella but your better off to get new pads as the old ones will be worn to the same profile as the old discs [emoji6] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
majik_thighs Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 I'm replacing both disks and pads savage. I was just wondering if these take a special pad. Cheers Sent from my Galaxy S6 edge using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
savage bulldogs Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 I used a standard compound pagid pad with my old godspeed drilled n grooved discs which seemed to work well but did create a bit more "dust" than the previous harder compound kevlar pads though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buggyeye Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 Changed the spring in my forge dump valve as had a boost leak. Cleaned my injectors out and feels so much smoother. Also finally got around to getting rid of the crazy blue sidelights and put some cool white LED ones in.

stants Posted August 21, 2015 Author Share Posted August 21, 2015 I've stuck a pair of black diamond preadator pads on the front with standard discs (still had loads of meat on) much better than oem loads of bite and little fade. I would have put their discs on too but didn't see the point of wasting money un necessarily Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

confusedbrog Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 Took it to scoobyclinic for milltek downpipe with hi flow cat and a remap, what a difference, it's so much more responsive and my boost gauge only just goes far enough now :) 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scoobyghost Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 Oh nice. What figures did you get? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
confusedbrog Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 Well I took it on BP ultimate fuel as that's the best I can get up my way, no Shell anywhere near me unfortunately. It made 286bhp and 275ftlb before the parts and map then they got it to 323bhp and 350ftlb so plus 37 bhp and over 70 ftlb and it's got a much better spread of torque and it's really lively too. My highest boost was 1.27 bar before now it's hit 1.47 :) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did they say what else you could to to get some more from it or is that about it? -- I make Films, Websites and social media for people Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
confusedbrog Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 Yea Alex take it back with Shell fuel in lol, they said they could probably get to 335-340 with better fuel in but I've had it tuned on what I can get and after 340 you need to start looking for a bigger turbo. Don't get too caught up on the peak bhp figures though, the torque increase is huge and the gains though the midrange can really be felt. Also it sounds amazing now I can hear the turbo :) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scoobyghost Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 The figures are always nice but since having mine mapped I don't listen to them. Its the response you get and how well it picks up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
confusedbrog Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 Just scaneed the dyno graphs and put them in my gallery on here you can see the gains are all the way through the rev range Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xander Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 Cool will take a look. Want to get my wrx mapped not had a mapped car before so sure I will feel what people say about it being drivable and not about the peek figure.

I'd love to do similar to mine, bit I'm scared of losing my warranty! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea it's a bit dodgy, what I've done is pretty similar to the hatch 330s or the 320r and 340r pack it's a shame they don't do them anymore Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
