I think I've seen the injectors hit around the 90 mark at some point but i haven't been pushing it for awhile now as I've upgraded turbo and the tune is not right. So I'm on light foot driving until tuned/upgraded some more.

Fuel pump was standard with no FPR..ie standard pressure. No probs there.

Yes, S15's will be going in (got em already)

Tomei fuel pump as soon as it arrives.

And Z32 (got that too)

Hoping for 250rwkws, yeah !

Hi,

Just FYI i got 235rwkw@11/12psi on stock fuel pump,AFM and stock regulator(the car was an auto also)...i agree that you should upgrade these items and that all cars are different but its food for thought...

This was also done on a safc ...a powerfc would give a way better tune overall just not in power output but the powerband midrange etc...if you can afford a powerfc and a tune ($900-1800 for powerfc then $500 for a full tune) then go for it..on the other hand I could not afford this and got the safc and tune for $500 all up..

If an emanage popped up when i was hunting for a cheap ecu I would of got it..theres one for sale now..it is way better then n safc and that one for sale is going for $350..the tune will also only cost $180-$280. There are other cheap alternatives there, but you pay for quality/or the product with demand.

Good luck, it is an exciting path to take...

& stock turbo? 235rwkw?

if you have trouble getting onto a pfc, or if price is a struggle you could have a look at other ecus like the greedy e-manage. much cheaper, between 600-800. im looking at getting one, just trying to get a bit of feedback on them.... just another option for u

    • So, the other thing I've sorted is a baseline dyno run up at Unigroup's new location. The auto trans was a little unco-operative by both shifting down when the throttle was floored on the dyno (so Mark had to ramp it up more slowly than in a manual) and also by shifting up at 6,000 even in sports mode instead of the indicated redline of 7,000 Still, on a hot day it made 240rwkw at 16psi which seems about right for 300kw (400hp) through an auto at the wheels.  The shape of the curve is not quite right because it was not full throttle to about 4,500 to stop it kicking down, but until I can get a tune on the auto trans control this was the best we could do.....full boost will be well below 5,000 once that is sorted, I'll get some data logs when I can to confirm For comparison, the R32 made 255 at 12psi (at 4,500) on the same dyno with tune, n1 turbos, cam gears, big exhaust but otherwise all standard so the v37 is likely a little better out of the box. One thing that is very clear is that the standard water to air intercoolers are not up to sustained use at full throttle in warm ambient temps. After about 5 runs (so only a few minutes full throttle), it was pulling boost and timing and dropping 10-15% power. Unfortunately I didn't get that printout and the Unigroup guys are away at the moment, will try and get hold of it on their return. So, looks like a healthy engine to start modifying and the only real area of concern is the w2a heat exchangers which the aftermarket has plenty of solutions for    
    • I maintain it actually looked really nice in person. So much so that I thought "No, this is illegal" but there it was, clear as day. I think we can easily call the wing and wheels/height to be transformative. Not saying it's better than the GR Whatever, or the 86, or the WRX STI or anything of that sort (the internet says it all bolts up so you can buy best of all worlds?) but it's still at least a thing and not nearly AS bad as people say.
    • That's less offensive than the previous gen.....except for all that ugly black tupperware around the edges. Blerck!
    • I leant out the window recently and took a picture of this new WRX. It looked real damn fine in person. It's faster around a track (stock) than a (stock) GR Yaris. It's much more practical despite being heavier. It's significantly cheaper. This gen tunes really well, much better than others. .... I think they're probably a lot better than people expect.
    • WRXs are a pure pleb boring car these days. You need to get an STI to even get close to what a WRX used to be.
