Mind mentioning how much you paid and to what extent you had tin worm? Got a little myself that needs sorting.

Over heating
Check the inside of the oil filler cap. It nay look like cottage cheese. If there is a the white residue that's a sure way that water is in the oil system.

An after market panel filter will give a slight increase in HP. Maybe 2hp on it's own. But throttle response will be quicker. I have the same car as you and from standard fitting a 3 inch exhaust from the downpipe back gave me an extra 23hp.

Does any map regardless of ecu allow for correct Afr when mafless?

There's a highly respected chap up in Sheffield for all your Subaru needs. Quite a few members here use him. http://www.subaruservicingyorkshire.co.uk/

Mine is 172k and in good health. Still not worth asking too much of them. A pal of mine had a blob eye on roughly 88k and the ringlands failed. He had 320hp.

Hi all - new to forum

Possible upgrades
Consider a deresonated centre section, or a less restricted system depending on noise level. If you know your mot tester 😜you could decat the downpipe and uppipe to allow free exhaust flow. Look into a panel filter to help pre turbo breathing. And a fuel pump 😆😆😆 If you're on a td04 turbo that's pretty much all you need to reach the maximum safe limit of the turbo. Next would be bigger turbo and possibly injectors. Once all that's done, then remap 😈 Hope this helps

Nice and tidy. Stick a price up to help with the sale? 😊

Best bet would be have the code read to see what popped up.

Mine peaks at 1.5bar. All depends on general health of the car. Lots of factors will need to be considered to answer "how much boost"

Looking for haynes workshop manual
I'm sure@kayzarh has a good collection of manuals.

In your other topic you say you have 13-15 psi. 13psi is roughly 0.9bar and that's standard boost pressure. If mapped they're usually mapped to 1.3bar(18-19psi)

What's the pro Vs con of running mafless?

London to Brighton run
I've only just caught wind of this and don't have many details. There is the annual run to Brighton happening on 25th June 2016. I hear they're leaving from bluewater shopping centre at 7am. Unfortunately that's all the information I have. I went last year and there were 120+ Subaru attending. It was a good day out. One of my pictures from last year showing the car park full of scoobies.

Judder / Vibration
Sounds like a clutch related issue. Possibly the release bearing is worn, spigot bearing, or even the clutch plate and pressure plate themselves. As for the idle knocking check the fmic pipework for any interference. I fitted a top strut brace and noticed my tmic knocks against it sometimes.

boosting problem [sort of]
True that, mines does the same in higher gears.

If your car has already been mapped you may already have an ecutek licence.

boosting problem [sort of]
Any ecu codes popping up? Could be an air leak or a dirty boost solenoid.
