Once my uk classic 1999 is back on the road,i want some more power,but not spending stupid money.If I got a td05 turbo,and a bigger intercooler and would I need a remap,how much will this cost me roughly and what power increase would I get?Currently its standard apart from full prodrive exhaust(no cats).Open to sugguestions.....Cheers


Which prodrive exhaust you got ?

Td05 with upgraded fuel pump and tmic can hit about 325 bhp

Remap tho is about 550 quid for ecutek inc license

Or

About a grand for Simtek

Or

Buy a apexi unit for about 350-400 and set up is about 200 quid

Or eculabs is 408 and local

Has it been mapped b4 ?

If not ash is selling a ecutek'd ecu with licence for £250

front entry tdo5 and new gaskets £200

then to map the ecutek'd ecu on a dyno about £200

I'd imagine that you'd see 300 hp ish with the current tmic and 440cc yellow injectors.

You might see a bit more power with a sti or newage tmic , but with the 440's and uk cams I wouldn't have thought you'd hit over 330 hp though.

I did it mate hit 329 lol

250 for a Ecutek ecu ????? Might aswell pay another 100 get your own one done ( less risk ) plus some mappers won't touch others


They rarely sell on scoobynet for 100

Don't know exactly what prodrive exhaust it is?What sort of tmic does it need to be?Is it just a sti one?Im completely ignorant on all of this.Hmmm still quite a bit of money then.Dont know if its been mapped before.Will have to have a look through the folder of paperwork

Normally have prodrive stamped on the tip mate , mine come with one if you see my build thread

300bhp would be ok to start with.....Nice.I think howesy said ive got yellow ones or did he say pink?Cant remember i'll ask him later this week.Yes its got prodrive on the tip


Soz matt i edited my comment a bit b4 you posted .

I Will admit that I don't know to much about the prices of ecutek as I can't use it , but I thought it was £500 + new with map n licence . also i didn't know that mappers don't like using others ecu's (I've had 3 mappers look at my esl )

Those are nice figures from yours was that with newage tmic , decat and induction mods ?

Remap is the expensive bit mate but worth it !!

Turbos the list is endless ! Td05 is easy to find and good power gains , I like the vf range (vf35 good for 340/350 bhp and great delivery )

Yeah I nearly got one for 80 quid , rang Paul at zen who mapped my red one said it wasn't worth it , for the time etc might aswell just get new license !

How much for a new/used sti tmic seen a few on ebay?

I paid 50 for mine with the forge dump valve !

But seen some around 100 mark


I had a v5 sti intercooler off eBay paid 20 quid for it !

Esl is open source (no licence needed) so mabey that's why they don't mind just flashing a base map ,that suits your mods and tweeking it for about £150

Just Need a crash course in all things apexi now as I need to get used to the hand controller

Come to a meet / show I'm at mate will show you on my mates sti6 it's pretty simple

Yeah worth it ! And a fuel cut defender is worth it I think

I might try put a scoob engine in something else , will use apexi set up

i have an ECU for your car which already has the licence on it so would save you alot of money.

As I said the other day a converterd TD05, already have 440s, sti tmic and a remap would see you to 330ish, as yours has the full prodrive pack fitted it could well have a prodrive map, will have a peek at your ecu in a mo, I have a converted td05 here I'm more than happy to put aside for your ;-)

Yeah should have silly fog lights and a sp ecu !
