I've just had a Roger Clark Motorsport induction kit fitted and re-map by Bob Rawle and then RR at Clive Atthowe at Norwich. The new figures are 356 bhp and 329 lbs/ft. It goes like s**t!
Already planning my next upgrades!!!
Bigger turbo, 650 cc injectors, 3" exhaust and tubular headers. That will be enough to be going on with. The story continues...........!

Nice one! Are those figures really just with an induction kit and a remap?

at the Last RR it was just under 310 BHP But look at the Torque !! The Torque is what its all about at the end of the day folks (Love the plate Chris) Roger Clarke really have made a great Machine. Just look at the quality of the Induction Kit installation. Perfection springs to mind. I have spoken the Chris many times and he is over the moon with the Quality of every Detail that Roger Clarke carries out on his WR1.

Nice mod Brian, I didn't notice until I read Chris's comment about it and had to go back and see what he was on about. The bhp on the Rolling Road Shootout was an abysmal 304 and the torque was about 282. At that point I'd just had a full decat. But it was a very disappointing result. Very happy now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

Which parts of the country are these two places in Brian?
I may have to call my insurance company and see how much they'll want if i 'play' with the standard spec.

Those figures are outstanding, you must be thrilled with that Chris. I didn't know you were at Clives on Saturday due I would have popped down and give you a look.
Does this cure the bog down Brian???

Does having these mods done invalidate your Subaru warranty?
