306 FMIC FAQ

[silverzx]

Yeah, going under radiators is never a good shout...

[Midnightclub]

Should have looped it over the top like we did on ours, acts like a twin pass setup

   

   

[maguire1992]

Thought about it but didn't want to do any cutting I'd say it will be fine
Thanks for your comment

[Midnightclub]

We didn't have to cut anything, it fits like oem

[silverzx]

HDi's have plenty of room for pipe to go around either side of the radiator.

[Poodle]

Lol, yeah if you're using 1.5" pipes. The offside gap is about 45mm at it's widest point, that's why so many people go twin-pass.

[Piggy]

I went up and over with one side and cut the slam a wee bit

[maguire1992]

My pipe was 2.5" so it was the handiest route

[maguire1992]

What bhp should I see after a stage 2 remap?

[rd070707]

In and around 150 depending on other mods, arron on here rolled 154bhp there on his hd which is stage 2 mapped with a few other supporting mods. Get a good map off whippy or prosteve would be my advice

[maguire1992]

Only mod I would say would have anything to do with bhp would be the exhaust which is just a full straight through ?

[rd070707]

yes that is ideal. Only other thing I can think you'd need is the egr blanked off. Oh and on stage 2 the boost is usually increased slightly. Get talking to a good mapper they will sort you out

[maguire1992]

Egr is blocked now just need it mapped out
Yeah going for map tomorrow

[rd070707]

Tomorrow? where at? please don't say torquetronix

[mcglynn]

Yeah please dont say wishart, your hdi will be running "180bhp'

[rd070707]

Its just that the likes of prosteve has mega experience mapping 306s, the cars on here are testament to his work

[mcglynn]

Torque tronix spool some shite aswell with figures and the losses on theyre dyno aren't right either so theres 'proof' of these figures.

[maguire1992]

Am for obd auto tune in Ballymena
Wouldn't go to torque tronix

[mcglynn]

Autotune arent so bad, ive the lead here if u want to borrow it and go pro steve or whippy. Theyll map the 16hdi sensor in for u etc.

[Arron]

Seriously I would use one of the forum mappers unless your going for a live map by a diesel specialist which id imagine wouldnt be cheap.

Thing ia the forum mappers specialise in thw bosch hdi fuel system so they can tailor your map I.e: launch control, rev limiters etc

How much is the map from that place and what sort of gains do they think youll get

[mcglynn]

Autotune are a reputable tuner with their own in house dyno etc, but it will cost a lot more than a forum file service map

[maguire1992]

Been to obd auto tune already and car made from 89.5 bhp to 145 bhp more than happy with it

[rd070707]

Good job mate, does she go well?

[mcglynn]

What sort of torque figures. Standard clutch?

[maguire1992]

Yeah goes great
Can't remember he's to email me the printout

[padge]

get it mapped by someone on here, should make 155-160bhp

[maguire1992]

219lbft of torque
Will wait to the clutch would maybe slip then see about that kyle

[mcglynn]

Must go a whole lot better than before anyway!

[Midnightclub]

Sounds like it's been put on a limited torque map

[maguire1992]

She goes really well
The man said he hadn't had a 306 make 150 bhp before...
