My 2003 2.0 Petrol Ulysse Is A Bit Gutless When Pulling Our Caravan,any Ideas For Improving The Engines Performance.
 
Hi Magnum and welcome to the forum,

I have also been looking for engine mods.
A replacement airfilter by K&N is available. Hardly likely to transform the performance, but the engine may feel a little more flexible.
The standard exhaust looks a healthy size and if any one were to make an aftermarket replacement it probably wouldn't be cost effective in terms of performance.
A superchip would probably offer most in terms of performance versus power.
I have been searching on the internet with no success so far. Will post anything I find.
Is your ulysse auto or manual?

Hi,

The guys at Angel Tuning will hopefully be offering a chip programming service soon. They have done the diesels with a good performance increase, ask Stu about his "Super Map".

Thanks To All You Guys For The Imformation.
My Ulysse Is The 2.0 Dynamic With Manual Box.
Ive Had A Few Silly Build Quality Issues With It And An Engine Managment Warning Light Problem,all Rectified By My Dealer Who Is Pretty Good.
The Performance Problem Is When Ive Got Our Caravan On.the Slightest Bit Of Wind Or A Slight Incline Causes It To Die Quickly.
All The Weight Being Pulled Is Within The Cars Design Limits.
I End Up Changing Down Quickly,reving The Nuts Of The Engine And Watching The Fuel Run Out The Exhaust Neat!!
I Pulled The Same Van With My Old Multipla Jtd With No Problems At All.when I Bought The Ulysse Fiat Technical Said That I Should Have No Probs With The 2.0 Petrol.
Wish I Had Got The Diesel Now!!
Looked At Changing Car To A Jtd, But Garages Offer Silly Trade-in Prices, So Increasing The Performance Seems Like The Answer.

Thanks Graham
 
Hi,

Did you get the engine management software mod for your car or did they just reset the engine management light.
