    . No difference in intake just a few red hoses on the 330s the head unit is different, prodrive backbox secondary cat delete , heated windscreen , push button start and a remap , some have the prodrive springs but not all

     

  2. mine is an 08. and was a post factory upgrade. not sure you will ever get numbers from prodrive as when I contacted them their records were poor..

    If your is a post factory upgrade it isn't a true 330s , it's an sti with the ppp . Real 330s they only made about 170 and will say on the identification plaque on the door shut , trim -330s ;)

    What is the general cost of a remap?  Sent from my SM-G935F using Tapatalk

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     Depends what you go for and where you go , but I would say £500 - £600

     

     

    How much was yours with the launch and flat foot shifting? If you don't mind me asking

    For an Ecu Tek race rom with all the options it was £600 , but after you've bought the license you can get it tweaked if you do other mods for a lot less , I payed £180 at engine tuner last time I had mine tweaked , but there are other other options which are cheaper and other places may be cheaper.

    Looks like I'm going to have to upgrade as I cannot live with how it is, is it really worth the £1800 to replace front speakers, amp and sub in boot. 

     

     

     

     

     

    1800 bloomin hell they made out of unicorn ivory

  5. Could get an engine management light , may get a bit of boost creep nothing major , don't put a induction kit on it tho without a map because that will make it run lean and then with boost creep , say hello to a melted piston

  6. Here a pic of the motor from when I went to gurston down speed hillclimb, just looked good sat there so thought why not take a pic

    You find it's harder than you think to photograph a car well especially a scooby hatch , I'm no photographer as you can probably tell from the thread haha

     

  7.  

    Next I want to try and get some coil overs and maybe some better brake pads if I'm going to track again

     

    , I'm running the Godspeed Kevlar pads ATM and they're kind of the next stage above stock and they performed really well but after 3 laps and breaking from over 100mph they did start to smoke so next I think some higher quality pads and coilovers , and maybe some roll centre adjusters dependant on if really necessary

     

  8.  

    How does it feel with the anti lift on ?? I've got a kit for mine just ain't got round to fitting it, any noticeable difference or did you do it all at once, arbs etc 

     

     

     

     

    I did the arbs a day before as a garage fitted the anti lift for me .

     

     

    The arbs did make the car feel much more flat but I am running stock shocks and springs ATM ,

     

     

    My anti lift is the black series now I believe it's probably one of the hardest ones you can get , it is also caster adjustable , I had it fitted with maximum + caster , and the responsiveness of the turn in does feel much tighter, it does seam to squat a lot less to although still got some as running stock suspension , but it's best when applying power out of a corner made a huge difference, with confidence on track to I would highly recommend , i did notice the ride was a Lil harsher after fitting but don't really notice it now

    I'm sure there are plenty of tuners on your journey , I know tdi (torque developments ) are in Essex if that's not too far out the way they're a good well known company.

     

    Also your question about the map it could be the exhaust if it only does it occasionally if it does it every time on the over run I would say it's the map, I'm not really a great fan of the pop and bang maps as all it really is , is just a really aggressive ignition cut and ain't really very good for your engine

    I can't copy links from here I don't know how to really use Tapatalk that well and to be fair I don't care there's an example above and there are plenty more if you can't be bothered to look , being inventive with prices , creating faults , telling people they need parts they don't . TBH honest I don't have a vendetta against them I just don't like seeing people get ripped off . Yes they may do a good job do the re galvanise every nut and bolt on your engine ? Not from any I've seen , do they do closed Dec inserts themselves ? No they don't , hence the turnaround on your build will be significantly higher.

     

     

    I find it very unlikely that engine tuner would be on the phone to scooby clinic over tech for an engine build .yes they may share info a lot of tuners do litchfeild rcm clinic etc .

     

     

    But as you are comparing clinic to engine tuner, are clinic considered the " masters of the 2.1 stroker " no , and I doubt thats been said in any reviews about them . Also where clinic involved in the development of the cosworth cs400 cars, probably not. does the owner have a framed cheque from cosworth in his office ? Hmmm doubtful

     

     

    Like I've said the end product may be very similar but you pay more for it from clinic I don't know why you can't except it clinic is expensive, very expensive, which surprises me considering the little problem they had last year

  11. So a few things have happened not really updated for a while , firstly my radiator exploded . I've had my front and rear arbs and my anti lift kit fitted

     

    , I did my first track day at brands hatch , in which I managed a 58 second lap , prob go quite a bit quicker if I had more experience.

     

    Then I hit a pot hole and had a blow out on one of my nearly new uni royals fuming , tbh I don't have many pics but will try get some more up soon

  12. Clueless you would have to be if your willing to spend countless thousands extra for a similar or lesser job [emoji1360] ,I'm not going to argue about it , but it's well documented on here that they over priced especially when it comes to the newer cars they try it on ! , one guy was quoted 9k for a cdb conversion on here recently , that's daylight robbery . But by all means get a quote off them just make sure your sitting down haha

    Soffened up the coilovers 4 clicks then Drove 370 miles from suffolk to Cornwall.

     

     

     

     

    managed to get 310 miles out of a small jdm classic tank [emoji16]

     

     

     

     

    Not bad for for a 360 hp car with a boot full of cases and 4 up [emoji41]

     

     

     

     

    Admittedly my mapper' s attention to off boost fuelling (not just pub figures) and the UK ratio 6 speed giving me 2750 rpm in 6th at 70mph helped [emoji6]

     

     

     

    In the hatch I sit at about 2750 rpm at about 80mph although that's the indicated speed , because in the newer 6 speeds don't they have slightly longer ratios as the engine doesn't rev as high
