Tuning for 86 in SA CPI - Open Flash units

The D-4S system and the phasing of the DI and Port injectors adds a whole new dimension to normal tuning.

Nice to see all the support for this platform though, and I'm also awaiting more news from RomRaider, as I have some experience with Subaru ecu tuning via RomRaider and ECUFlash.

Yes it can, but it is up to the tuner.

We had the FF dyno,day in Durban on Sun, which we had 4 of us run.
Stock 86 = 119kw we added Torco to the car and then ran again increased to 129kw
86 with DIF and BRZ zorst and Torco = 133kw
86 with cone intake, Powerflow exhaust, CPI tune and NF Ultra = 135kw
86 RMS Sprintex Supercharged, Ecutek Delicious Tuned, Torco = 186kw

you mean Torco the oil? 10 kw?
i wonder for 2014, what i can do to get the most power gain without a turbo.
There are quite a few tunes out there now, who has which and what's the experience like?

Torco Accelorator Octane Booster. The guys used 400ml to a full tank, giving roughly +4 Octane.
If you not wanting to go SC or Turbo, we managed to gain 18wkw on 95
DIF

BRZ zorst
Ecutek tuning
Giving you straight line awesome power.
Keep an eye on the open Flash Tablet, NA tuning getting great results.

10kw peak gain on OB wow !!!

so and exhaust and OB is all you need for solid oomph on a budget without risk of losing your warrantee.

how much is that OB? for occasional use it might be just what i want...

NF Ultra is around R220 a bottle

Hi Guys

I have to say...After having used OB in my car and then tuning...I would recommend a tune ...You gauranteed optimium power on pump and then if you need more throw in octane...Unless you enjoy the idea of adding octane to every tankful.

Word to the wise..Stay away from NF on our cars..Car responded very well but it cost me a set of plugs...R1400 plus the headache to replace.

RGM Motorsport are the agents for Torco, give them a shout on the cost to ship to CPT.
Torco can go up to +14 mixed with 18L
On a NA car without tune I'd be careful going higher than +4 mix. The cheaper option and also gives around 5wkw gain is Liqui Molly Octane Booster, it's +3 safe and easy to mix can to a tank, whole lot cheaper too.

IMO based on all I've experimented and added mods,
DIF, BRZ zorst, Liqui Molly, of the occasional power, perfect on the coast.

As Anban has mentioned the tune, however he got the same gains using OB, so I question if the tune is worth it. As soon as Anban can produce the before and after graph with CPI tune it will show if the tune can alter the torque dip or not.

As the saying goes each to there own.

Nice SW20 there alongside the 86

I've run the Liqui-Moly Octane Plus and my car being 100% unmodded. No dyno figures but I will say car was far smoother through the revs. As this is my daily runner I don't use it everyday - much fun when I do though...
