Technical 1.2L 8V Power

the power is so low for a reason.. like any car car, start messing with the computers and its guna **** up later..

i say, its not powerful enough to get any power out of it, so leave it standard or buy a bigger engine..

you obivously have no experience of tuning a car then!?

ive had mine mapped ages, its fine :confused:
 
only the mk1 punto 75 had 75bhp.

then there was the punto 60 which was 60bhp.

the difference between the two was that the 75 ran a 'hotter cam'. its a cheap mod for the seicento/cinquecento boys to add roughly 10bhp.

i have plenty of experience tuning a car, i worked at it for 3 years...

and ages means??2 months, 6 months, a year?????
the car is factory set to what it is capable of, you mess that up you put stress on the chassis, gearbox, driveshaft, crankshafts, camshafts etc etc... the list is endless.. unless you upgrade these parts they will eventually fail as they cant deal with the power... in which case you would be cheaper to buy a more powerful car..
thats why i dnt touch my 1.2 8v, its pointless

its actually set to the lowest tollerances, for emmisions reasons mainly, not weak parts, sure if you bolt a turbo on, the standard parts wont take that, but mild tuning....easy take it(y)
