Preparation for remap - Daniel-mcgowan - 17-02-2013
Hi guys just wondering what I need to to put my car in for a good remap? Not too clued up on this so anyone who can help me out would be great!
RE: Preparation for remap - Just Sean - 17-02-2013
If its just dtage1 then it'll be fine.
Also ng as its having regular services etc but you don't need to add anything for a remap!

Cool! Think I've got a good base as my hdi is only on 80,000 miles and has been regularly serviced
thanks for the help what kind of power figures am I looking at with the stage 1 remap ?
RE: Preparation for remap - Just Sean - 17-02-2013
About 120bhp. Is a decent gain over standard. Mpg will go up too
RE: Preparation for remap - Tom - 17-02-2013
About 125bhp mate... Are you going to get a mapper from here to do you a map and upload it yourself? Or are you going to get arse raped by an exhaust place? lolz

Definitely a great gain in bhp! And torque? I've heard about the mpg gain. This is excellent! Will the car be smoky due to the remap ? What would be necessary for stage 2?! Thanks.
RE: Preparation for remap - Just Sean - 17-02-2013
Research for stage 2!
Intercooler will be needed.
About 200lbsft.yeah the car will b a bit more smokey, dobt expect dturbo levels of smoke tho!
Lol tom!! +1

I'm not sure what I'm going to do I've just started thinking about a re map who would you recommend to go to? I'm not having someone plugging it into a fisher price laptop and pressing buttons haha.

More smoky ? There's no smoke at all at the moment! Haha. Cheers mate will look into the stage 2 when I get home!

Where you located? Mr whippy is in Leeds and theirs pro Steve in Bristol if you do t fancy someone plugging in.
Bit in fairness its very rare for the ECU to brick by remapping it!
RE: Preparation for remap - Poodle - 17-02-2013
You'll get substantially more power if you smash out the cat and swap the backbox for a piece of straight pipe or another midbox.
The car shouldn't be too smokey on a stage 1, depends how much power you want to have.

Scotland?! Haha near Edinburgh
I don't mind someone plugging it in as long as they know what they are doing!
RE: Preparation for remap - Just Sean - 17-02-2013
I think theirs only 1 Scottish member on here!! :/
Awkward!
RE: Preparation for remap - Tom - 17-02-2013
A basic laptop is best for mapping like windows xp with f*ck all on it and you wont have a problem, just watch the bar move, dont be tempted to do anything while you wait!
Wouldnt expect any smoke tbh but im not really a hdi person.
And i second what poodle said, when my mates backbox fell off his mapped hdi he said it felt way faster!

Well I am looking to replace my exhaust soon so I might as well get this just now? As much power as I could get out of it without the car breaking! Lol

Honestly if you can read instructions and follow them, you'd be fine to map it yourself.
