Tuning 120 T-Jet Remap

[RobBravo]

I know, I know this has been asked many times, but I have a few specific questions

Am I right that the 120 generally goes on the rolling road and will run over 130? And when remapped they can go up to roughly 145 before the turbo runs out of puff?

I'm not really interested in swapping turbos for a 150 sport or Abarth turbo and making my car super fast because I'm really happy with the MPG's I'm getting from the 120 T-Jet

My question is this;

When you remap a diesel, more often than not you get an added bonus which is more MPG's, so when you aren't driving the car hard you are saving at least a small amount on fuel. Would this be the same case on the T-Jet? I'd love it if I could get the car to over 140 BHP with a nice little boost to the MPG's too.

Does anyone have any first hand experience?

For reference, I can very easily get 42 mpg + out of my 120 T-Jet

Many thanks

Hi i had my 10 plate 1.4 tjet 120 remapped a couple of weeks ago after owning the car for two weeks, and the guys who did it claimed under normal driving u should see about a 10% gain in mpg. I dont think i will be achieving anything like this as since the remap the car is way to much fun to drive normally )

What were your actual gains buddy? Was it rolling road or off the shelf map? And have you had any other modifications? Thinking of having it done myself. Been told I can get 157 BHP from stock parts

Didn't go on the rolling road mate but waa told from other tjets they have had on there that it it put about 35bhp and about 50 nm torque on it. and i havn't had any other mods done, probably just leave it as it is now because its enough fun as it is

I've heard all I need to hear. Shall have this done with my company bonus.

Some good stuff!

As long as there isn't a drop in MPG - that's a bonus right?

What's your before and after? Roughly?

Cheers
