hi alan,have a uk300 thats seems very slow,it has the ppp ecu fully decatted and running 1.3bar of boost,is it worth doing the hybrid turbo/front intercooler or would it make more sense to sell it on and start off with an 03 sti with ppp,as thinking about a brake upgrade also,cheers for now adam |

| Answer:
Hi Adam - I can see where you're coming from, but you may find others think the same way, making it hard to get a good deal on your 300. If that's the case, it would make sense to improve the devil you know! Having had prior experience, we have learnt to be wary of potential engine problems with the UK300. We've had a couple in the past that end up flat due to the ignition being pulled big style via advanced learning. The ECU picks up engine noise, and translates that as detonation. Of course, anything that's broken can be fixed! At 1.3 bar, your car should go well, so I'd advise getting it checked out before you go any further. |
