Car runs very smooth and absolutely hammers :)
A big thanks to Steve and the team at MMS

Congrats mate, hope you are content with it....sounds like a good result. Hardest part now is not thinking its too slow in a years time.......stupid mod bug has got me:<

Good power for 16psi .. im assuming you have a TBE fitted ..

Nice numbers mate, hope you enjoy it. :D

Put the figures and a printout if you have one in the "horse power"

a terrible terrible bug :P

Great figures bud :) Well:eusa_danc done

Nice figures :) :)

nice work! was there today getting the 201 looked at. they had a few issues with a quality install job you did (or whoever it was) on the bov with the gasket being folded over and leaking boosts!

car sounded tuff as on the dyno, congrats!

If you dont mind me asking, what sort of $$ were you up for roughly :icon_jook

ye the guy who put it in fucked it up aw well...all good now
i wish i was there to see it on the dyno

yeh steve thats cool cost me $1700 thats with an hour of dyno
and an extra $400 for abit of work that they did so i would say budget for nearly 2 grand

Thanks bud, not bad considering the kw's you are achieving, cheers:D

congrats mate.

talking about this mod bug, do you know if future tunes are cheaper if you wanted to upgrade your turbo for example? or will it be $1700 every time :eek:

You only pay for dyno time at an hourly rate for retunes, as the tuning program is already mapped onto your ECU.
$1700 or whatever amout it was is only for the initial program setup and tune.

I’ve been at X-speed today to compare some prices on spares and services. I was informed that hey don’t do Ecutech and the ECU’s they install will set you back about $6000. They weren’t to helpful on giving any upgrading info and was also told I should have bought a Lancer as Rexy’s tend to brake down when you do upgrades on them. I left the shop feeling some resentment… I think I’ll stick to MMS and MRS. :)

whats an ecutech? and who are MRS?

Spelling mistake, sorry. ECUTEK, not ECUTECH, is the programs that is supported by your standard ECU. It's designed to allow easy access to the factory ECU. RMS is a Subaru service centre in Carlisle.

RMS don't tune stock ECUs either.
MMS and Race Torque for ECUTEK
ASG for Verso

Definitely stick to the Subaru specialists though!
