Scoob Questions

I'm planning what modifications I will be sorting out on the scoob..

first thing i've been advised is front mount IC... I'm thinking of going for a Autoban 88 however running this without the DV, will it cause problems with a TD04 turbo? If so will it be worth waiting untill I upgrade the turbo to a vf34 of something?... and then do them at the same time along with the re map??


:unsure:

good man George, i think the TD05 is the best to run without a DV but you would need a front entry one im sure Lewis will be round to correct me if im wrong :lol:

Lol, well it depends what model year it is ;)

The td04 will be fine with no DV though

George i fitted an autobahn88 fmic on my 95 wrx it was a specific 92-96 intercooler kit without a dv fitting outlet. ABM motors in weymouth tig welded an alloy tube into the intake side pipe for me to fit my dv back on,charged me £25 and did a spot on job.
1995 wrx wagon the cleanest around!!!

As Ian will know the Ksports really are great brakes even with my rusty bolts...which according to Bren@Apex via an email today said the new bolts should be with me next week... :rock:

TBH George...depending on what power upgrades you go for dictates the intercooler....with yours being a later classic you could opt for an uprated top mount intercooler if 300-320bhp is your goal...with yours being a UK car it has a lower breaking limit than a jap import...

saying that theres a guy on surrey scoobys running 390+bhp on a standard bugeye engine and box... :blink:

ah wow.. shesh thats intense... yeah to be honest from hearing lukes go down the road i would like to run it without a DV (luke could you take me for a quick spin next time you're at nationwide???).. an upmounted intercooler is something i was also considering Jay :thumbsup: however i get kinda nervous about engine heat effecting the IC on hot days but 300 ponies was something i was aiming for

Yeah stoppers were another big thing... brembos are probably the way i was thinking.. constantly scouting the web for some.. :ph43r:

Thanks Rob73 ill definatly bear that option in mind!..

the engine is identical? all the high mileage engines i've ever heard of have been uk cars, not heard of a high mileage import.
