Hi all newbi here again 2nd post different question.
I did a site search here and found similar questions on the lack of power, but no definitve answer. So mine is phrased slightly differently. I have a possible solution but need it verifying first, to see if its aviable outcome for the cost.
On pulling away I find it lacking power on taking off, and under acceleration with two up front. Have looked at a remap but in my day a retune was new cam, exhaust, carbs and a head mod.
So back to remapping, had a look at a couple of sites and input car reg for specs. Now they all seem to offer an 8% increase in BHP and Torque.
The standard BHP is 77 this inceases to 88, and the torque is 115 inceases to 124. And all that extra for around the £150 -£250 mark.
Question I have to ask is that a significant incease to overcome the sluggish start and lack of power under acceleration. Would I feel the difference I dont want to splash the cash and feel no extra power difference.
As I said ealier in the day you fitted the parts and away you sped instant hard on (pardon my English, only way I know how to express it sorry)
