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

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.

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

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.

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.

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?

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

[/URL]

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

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

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.

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.

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.
