If you're using the app on a phone or tablet, tap on the photo, tap on the share icon and then select the "copy link to clipboard" option. Then just tap on the IMG code which will copy it and paste it into your post

Thats the new toy all nice and clean! What does everyone think?

Rdlangy1 18-07-2016 12:44 PM

Liking that a lot :10:

Soft spot for a black hawk!

NL03Scooby 18-07-2016 12:55 PM

Love that, looks very smart!

Lucky 18-07-2016 02:28 PM

Jealous lol. God I wish I hadn't sold mine :cry:

Frenchie 18-07-2016 02:40 PM

Does this mean you are starting to look for one, I'm sure Saltdean hasn't been the same since you sold your last one! !!!

Reece_sti 18-07-2016 06:15 PM

Haha whats replaced your old one? So far mines got the basic mods a full decat exhaust, filter, clutch and shortshift. Thinking of a remap anyone know the difference in performance when mapped? Future plans... forged!

Bolesroor 18-07-2016 06:27 PM

Very nice :doubleup:

Red Baron 18-07-2016 06:36 PM

If it's got a full decat I'd be getting it mapped smartish, they don't really like being left to run free once the downpipe cat has been removed. The remapped 2 litre Sti makes about 330 with a full decat, panel filter and a fuel pump, not sure about the 2.5.

Steve_PPP 18-07-2016 07:05 PM

What Shane says. Car looks great :ok: but if you've already fitted the full decat, a map should be done urgently.

Red Baron 18-07-2016 07:21 PM

Notice it's got an induction kit as well rather than the standard air box I'd make a remap a priority if I was you. The Impreza is a very tuneable car but they're a little temperamental and fragile if things aren't just right.

Ginola 18-07-2016 07:54 PM

:welcome: to SES fella that looks lovely :)

+ 1 as Red says above hopefully there is some history with it and the air filter has been mapped in (though I would look to replace with a standard airbox if you can or still have it.

Reece_sti 18-07-2016 08:30 PM

Cool! Well i brought it with the decat and filter as it is so maybe its already had a map? It runs spot on at all speeds and idle so maybe its already had one lol, another wont hurt and a dyno! But only thing thats worrying me is when i have the dccd in auto the diff is a bit clunky at low speeds especially when turning some say its normal, has anyone experienced this?

Reece_sti 18-07-2016 08:33 PM

And the standard airbox better then induction kit?

Reece_sti 18-07-2016 08:37 PM

Also thinking about it in first and second the acceleration is unreal but as i get into the higher gears theres quite a drop in power it seems, maybe it hasent had a map or of it has its been mapped for acceleration? Hmm lol

Yes terry, the merc goes back in 6 months and then we are having a complete change around in the family due to eldest learning to drive. So, I'll be using the galaxy for work and family stuff, getting a small car for the Mrs to drive during the week and for my eldest to learn in, and then another scoob for me. It's been far too long.

Nothing exiting replaced it. Moving house and other stuff have taken priority for the last couple of years, but now I'm back in the market for one. Either another hawk or a JDM of some sort.

This was my old one

http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a2...ecember070.jpg[/URL]

http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a2...ecember069.jpg[/URL]

Decat and remap to 340bhp and 380lbft
BC coilovers
Updated discs and pads
And various cosmetic bits.

iPond 18-07-2016 09:32 PM

:welcome: And Nice Scoob!

Gotta love a black hawk.

Reece_sti 18-07-2016 09:49 PM

Lovely car bet you cant wait too get another! So chuffed with mine taking it too brands hatch next month too really try it out, Cant wait!

HYDROSCOBY 18-07-2016 10:50 PM

Have a chat with Rich @ FB Tuning (see my sig or Ginola's sig for contact number). He can sort your map out no problem :ok:

Scott.T 19-07-2016 10:44 AM

Looks nice but as said above it needs a remap. More for the filter as they run very lean on an open filter.
The ECU will be trying very hard to compensate and you will probably be down on power as a result.

When I fitted one to my Hawk and test run it (with wideband AFR fuel meter attached) I had to back out part way through the run as it went dangerously lean.

Scott.T 19-07-2016 10:46 AM

If you pop along to the next event I can hook up and tell you if it's mapped.

Normal.
Especially after a spirited run
I found that reversing into a 90 degree bay the most clunky after a little run out.

Lucky 19-07-2016 12:30 PM

Yep, as Scott says, particularly when reversing. :ok:

Reece_sti 19-07-2016 06:15 PM

Cool happy too hear that guys was worried about it but should be all good! And yeah i want too come along scott, it would be good too find out thays for sure!

Scott.T 19-07-2016 07:12 PM

Beaulieu is the next one.
Great event and very cheap entry into the venue compared to the normal gate price.
I expect we will meet up en-route somewhere.

Reece_sti 19-07-2016 10:46 PM

Haha yeah course, i should be there, is everyone meeting there or on the way too it?
