You can stick a bigger turbo on it that would gain quite a bit more power with the Remap and get a proper Induction kit.
What sort of budget are we looking at.

Don't forget top general maintenance using say the best oil is critical too.
They go way too fast to start with anyway and if you're not happy after a remap then I suggest you buy something else

Re: how to tune up my stilo jtd
FFS some people want to make the car go faster out of interest/Hobby/love for their car so telling people to buy a new car just isnt appropriate.
If people dont know how to tune a car then just say nothing at all.
Sorry Rant over.

You might not like what I suggest but it generally cuts through the emotion to the root of an issue - and it could easily save the OP a bundle of dosh too.
Well this is car Forum and it's basically about giving people advice.

Re: how to tune up my stilo jtd
So whats wrong with the usual cams, decat pipe, better exhaust, Uprated manifold, Induction Kit, port & polish, bore, pistons, bigger turbo. These are just a couple of things that i know of and if done properly (It may not be cheap) will all make the car faster.
Im sorry for ranting a bit but what you are doing is not helping anybody. Especially when you come to that conclusion before even asking for a budget.

Re: how to tune up my stilo jtd
For anyone who knows anything about JTD's then the 1st choice for a performance gain is a remap - quite simply nothing else even comes close.
Why on earth don't you let the OP get a chance to post what he really wants - for all we know he might not have the money for a remap let alone anything else
If he really does suggest 'money is no object' then you can advise him to your hearts content - and I certainly wont be objecting

Best save up £199 for a visit to Red Dot or a bit more for some of the other mapping companies.
Most are rubbish and some are even dangerous to the engine (those that increase fuel pressure).

Re: how to tune up my stilo jtd
that lot should be all you need to keep a constant grin on your face whenever some chav gives you the look............because in a Stilo with the above, you'll end up with a wink and lusty look from his Mrs too :slayer:
- strut braces.
exhaust (this made a huge difference on its own)
lower stiffer springs
remap
