I did buy a 3 bar Bosch TMAP today with the same 4 pin connector as the 2.5 currently on there. Part number 0 281 002 845. I called Bosch a few days ago to figure out what a good sensor number would be and they were beyond unhelpful.
I have considered this lately. This was my first time ever tuning a car and I've learned a lot about questions to ask a tuner before the car ever gets there. There is a Subaru specialist here in Orlando that I've heard good things about. However they've already put the license on my ECU and have ran the car on the dyno already and I owe them money for that.
I even looked at CSG since I have your MXP touring exhaust on my car. I only went to this shop because they were a referral from someone here who knows cars. |
Remember that the FA20 and FA24 are unique engines that have essentially ZERO actual tuning relation to any other engines Subaru make. The injection system isn't even Subaru; it's Toyota. Run far, far away from any Subaru shop that says they can build/tune/whatever A BRZ/FRS/86/GR86 because they're a Subaru specialist and the BRZ/FRS/86/GR86 is a Subaru. No good 86 shop would ever say they're a Subaru (or Toyota) specialist. They're strictly a 86 specialist.
Bosch will not be helpful; their target customers are not consumers but rather, OEMs, manufacturers, suppliers, etc.
