Have a colleague here at work who is after a bit more power from his 57 plate Focus TDCi 136.
I recommended BlueFin at first because it's easy to DIY. But reading online they seem like pretty bad value for ~ 20bhp?
Can any of the forum re-mappers do these engines? If so what gains can you get and at what cost? He's a tight bastard.
Disclaimer: The above is not to be taken to heart and is probably a joke, grow up you big girl.

They normally map to between 170 and 180hp on a stage 1 map.
Not that many places will touch them though as they tend to be Siemens ecus.
RSTuning may be a bit far for you, but they are the dogs dangly bits...

Didn't know you worked over there Liam.
I've known Paul and Specky for years. Everytime I'm in the area I pop in and say hello.
Next time I'm over I'll let you know, we'll have a brew and get Specky to take us out in some serious cars.

Sounds good mate. Think one of the lads that run it lives near me, keep seeing an Evo 6 in their colours driving around.

Yea RS Tuning is well over £400. Ment to be the best though.
Speaky's 4x4 corsa is a beast. Our wholesalers is opposite RS always have a perv / nosey at the motors.
