Tune for v6 Sti
 

Once again guys i ask for your expertise

Am loving this new V6 sti (and am very slowly being converted from the V8 brigade :)), but one thing it needs is a decent tune. Its running a little rich (you can smell it) and every now and then when slowing down for lights it tends to stall.

Who in perth would be a good mob to get a tune from, and what are the tunes worth (I know LS1 tuning was usually $400 - $700) but is the wrx a completely different kettle of fish?? I know there is posts here listing tuners but im asking for personal experience and what other people have done, regretted, ect

The car has 3" hitech TBE, turbosmart BOV, Autronix computer and intercooler water spray kit as mechanical engine mods.. It has stock VF28 STi turbo.
Whats the next step for a little bit more poke... once again ide like to explain i have NO idea about modding wrx's i have come from a history of V8s and stroked LS1's

What aftermarket computer does it have? If not sure, pull up the passenger carpet, remove cover plate and have a look.
Is the bov atmospheric? If it is, put a stock one back on.

ill do that now, find out what computer it has. (i know it is an aftermarket one) yes the BOV is atmospheric, and is a little loud and irritating. I am going to go to subaru and get a stock one to put back on

depending on ur ecu, but id say All star garage in malaga tuned my wrx and runs like a absolute dream since :)

So i just checked and it has an ECU that says J2 on it, not much more on it to identify it.
So If I have that, whats my options with tuning?

From a quick google search, a J2 is a standard ecu for a V6 STI (RA?)

Any signs of tampering on the case? Maybe a port added to it? Some aftermarket ecus reuse the factory casing.

It could have a autronic or motec board, but sounds likely its got a stock ecu and the stalling is caused by the atmo bov.

So if money wasnt an option what would you guys do... for a bit more poke... 200kw atw is what ide been after. Fast enough but not fast enough to be a pig and brake everything
