I bought a gt555 Irish turbo. Had few questions I'm hoping ye can answer.
1. Can I use a jap wrx or sti turbo with out remap, will it fit.
2. I want to put in a fmic. Is it a good upgrade or should I put in sti top mount,
3 I want to remap car when I've all mods done. Is there an ecu that can be used to flash and remap on dyno without spending huge money.
4. Is blitz nur spec still best exhaust
5. Is it worth puttin in induction kit, and do maf sensors have to be moved.
Any other info ye have or can help me with would be appreciated.
Cheers lads.
 
1. Can I use a jap wrx or sti turbo with out remap, will it fit. not adviseable with out map but will fit on
2. I want to put in a fmic. Is it a good upgrade or should I put in sti top mount,front mount not needed unless lookin for big power sti is fine
3 I want to remap car when I've all mods done. Is there an ecu that can be used to flash and remap on dyno without spending huge money. your cars ecu can be mapped no need to change ecu
4. Is blitz nur spec still best exhaustyes imo but I might be biased I have one
5. Is it worth puttin in induction kit, and do maf sensors have to be moved. good panel filter is best on that model
Any other info ye have or can help me with would be appreciated. decent set of discs and pads an anti lift kit and geometry setup will really help the handling
Cheers lads.

Cheers lad. I didn't Introduce myself cos I'm on site awhile. Just haven't had scooby for ages. Went the civic route for few yrs but got myself this car now as project for myself.
Question bout that remap. I can do all above for instance, exhaust, fmic, sti turbo, etc and I can go to dyno and he can remap car with the ecu that in it. No need for me to get anything else.
 
You will need a uprated fuel pump and Sti injectors as well, maybe better brakes, did the gt come with four pots on the front, you would want to change the plugs before the map to unless they were changed lately.

But if it was me, sell the gt and buy a Sti, you'll end up the the same power after spending the same money with a lot less heart ache, plus you'll have an original Sti with a lot more extra that the gt didn't have, eg interior , alloy wishbones, spoilers etc
 
Ya maybe. But this one is a limited edition. Has the 555 plate. And it is a project. Fix it up and sell it on. Not shur if it has 4 pots. Was gonna stick drilled and grooved discs on it.
Just had service oil, filter, plugs, fluids. Why is it this ecu can be flashed and remapped and the jap cars need hand controller or sumtin like that.
 
Ok so I don't need to upgrade brakes if I have 4 pots is it.
Also on the exhaust. Is it worth taking the cat out. I've a full yrs nct on car. If I'm not going blitz could u give me sum alternatives. I like a good sound.
 
Get a Afterburner Vortex great Subaru rumble and good value too scoobycolm and kneaden will tell u how good it sounds they have both commented on mine...
