Default SpeedWorks - $2500 Upgrade Kit

Heyas,

Has anyone taken their WRX to SpeedWorx for the $2500.00 Upgrade Kit? I'm just hangin out for my Bonus to be dropped into my account, and i'm looking at this kind of budget for an upgrade.

Haven't called them up yet, but curious if anyone here as had this done - What do you get? How did it all go?

For $2500 i'm looking at getting a Full TBE System and a ECU Upgrade and Tune.

Rich

Oh, figured it was some cheap china rip off workshop :P

Dunno, considering the prices of the individual parts involved, and the labour.. seems a bit on the rich side.

I don't think you'll be getting an "ECU upgrade" (i.e. replacement) for that price, just a reflash of your factory ECU......

However thats pretty much what I have (along with a TBE, y-pipe) and pulled 225HP ATW on their dyno.

Would like to know what Exhaust and ECU they are putting in for that price.............(contradicton edited)
Actually the ECU reflash might be a verso tune which sounded good when I spoke to Rob about it and cheaper than EcuTek.

It would be a Verso ECU reflash, and more than likely an X-Force system.

Good value for money IMHO..

except for the x-fart system, spend a few hundy more and get a decent down pipe imo.

still not bad considering we used to pay ~$1400 + ~$300 for tek 3 custom ecutek tune, +$300 for fuel pump, and up to ~$1800 for a butler/mms/rms tbe exhaust.
that's a ~$3800 total for what will most likely be included in the $2500 speedwok 'package'.
