yeah fair call that. tbh i would sack the vf48 and chuck an aftermarket one on and swap out the injectors and then get it mapped, the graph on min is a sc46+ on low boost, forged 2.5, 3 inch decat, sti inlet manifold, sti top mount and perin inlet pipe. Injectors gave up the ghost at 330bhp though. May find its time to go aftermarket ecu as well, will be struggling to cope with it. can tell from my boost afr graph the ecu was struggling with the fueling as the boost came in

oil pressure is one of those things that by the time you realise you have a problem, its already too late. i can't rememeber what i got on my classic cold, but warm when engine revving was about 6 bar.

headgasket on a 2.5 is full rebuild mate inc bottom, don't accept anything less. Sounds like who ever has advised that is clueless. ask for a full rebuild or your money back and walk away

about 15 miles so far,,,,,,,, hahaha

i believe 9 of the 10 22b.com subarus and all 10 of the r35's were running syvecs at ten of the best this year. bit of an accolade that lol apparently they are in most of the top tuner cars out there now, mikee's drag car, and f's drag car, even gobstopper 2 is now running one. and that doesnt include allt he lambo's, r8's etc that now have them

Depends when you dig into it mate, i asked pat that very question and while it does the same things, it does it in a different way which isn't ideal. Bit like the difference between a syvecs and alcatek, while broad strokes they do the same thing when you dig down into the spec and such they are very different. as always its cost vs features/performance, its why syvecs isn't cheap

s reg will be a version 4, which the standard ecu isnt mapabel. the choices you have are to put a daughterboard in ESL etc or aftermarket ecu (funny we were just talking about this on another thread lol) personally in your shoes i would go aftermarket via alcatek. Other option is syvecs but that will be alot of money

perfectly capable for a near standard car to be mapped though, (decat, panel filter) once it goes beyond that i'd be wanting to go afterkarket ecu anyway. personaly i;d just go the extra mile for a syvecs though

welcome. get it back all fixed?

i bought mad max for £12.50 so been playing that, magnum opus for the win :D lol in case anyone else wants, http://www.cjs-cdkeys.com/products/Mad-Max-CD-Key-For-Steam.html

welcome, summit wrong with the way it was run by the looks of it, bhp/ftlb crossing point is in the wrong place. should cross at 5200rpm ish

tbh bit of a waste of time, you can ecutek the standard ecu for the same money, or alcatek isn't huge amounts more and is a much better option then either.

haha yeah, up to about 290 done now, so first nearly at first oil change then onto the second 500

welcome to the site :)

Depends what you want from em and how hard you hit em, can't beat a nice set of AP's or D2's, stay clear of ksport though, the dust seals on em are !Removed!

most of the braking on a subaru is done by the front, so some simple groved ones (stay away from drilled cos they have a nasty habbit of cracking) will be fine.

230/500 miles to go,,,,

yip, as above, full rebuild, only unkown will be what damage has been done and you'll need it to be stripped down to find that out

3-4k that is

3-4 heads on a 2.5 is bottom end job as well

i've already been banned mate hahahaha

sounds like facebook tuners

It's one of those mods that some cars run funny unless mapped for one, some cars run fine even unmapped for one cheap tends to mean problems, weak springs that bleed boost is a common issue. http://shop.scoobyclinic.com/index.php?route=product/product&path=59_111&product_id=613 also need adaptor as well though

thats a good one, seems to be more and more common. right money maker for dealers, £3 bulb cost £30-50 to replace cos of the labour involved.

you can try a few things, as said, spark plugs/gap, ht leads, coil pack, etc etc but it all costs money and may not solve it. advantage of goign to a specialist is they can try a few things to see if it solves the problem. The other issue with misfire codes is they might not actualy be misfire, might be a default code its used. My dads kept getting missfire on cylinder 3, turned out to be something rather more sinister
