Thanks: 1 Trader Rating: (0) | Re: 1.2 sporting engine mods... advice needed! a visit to angel tuning for a remap gets you about 8bhp and 8lbs of torque costs £150 i believe. this is the link http://www.angeltuning.co.uk/default.asp a few people on her ehave had it done i beilve im sure they would reccomend it. they will also for £300 do remap and fit cda air induction kit for better gains and looks the part lol.

| Re: 1.2 sporting engine mods... advice needed! I recon you'll end up regreting not getting the filter at the same time cause I would assume you would need to map it again to get the best out of the filter! Save up!

| Re: 1.2 sporting engine mods... advice needed! Yeah i'd be interested to see what power you have with just a CDA + Re-map. My guess would be around the 85bhp mark. There was a guy on Mk2 who had his remapped and it made 79bhp!!! These are figures at the flywheel too. I believe his graph is posted. james
