Question Prodrive ECU 2.5WRX

Hi, being a newcomer to Impreza's I am looking at getting a Prodrive PP ECU for my 2.5WRX does anybody know if they are plug and play as the donor car is also a 2.5WRX? Or will I need to get it programmed to the car? thanks for looking

I think you would need to get the Prodrive exhaust as well?

The key will need to get reprogrammed as well, or at least it does on older cars.

As a newcomer, I would do more of a search around before going down this route. You are probably much better off getting a sports cat exhuast and a remap from one of the guys recommended on here. The other option is an upgrade package from one of the well known specialists, such as Powerstation, Mocom etc. (I know there are loads more, these are the first 2 who came to mind!)

I am waiting back for a response from another SN member about a Prodrive exhaust so I was hoping to match the two of them up at the same time, at this time I don't really want to go down the remap route and if I get the Prodrive ECU and get it programmed by a Subaru dealer it shouldn't invalidate the warranty, I hope anyway! Thanks for the advice as when the warranty has run out I will be looking to go down the remap route.

I would check about your warranty - I would have thought that you only keep it if it's fitted by a dealer using new parts.
