I can say YES, the 1.8 can be remapped... unfortunetly angel tuning cant offer this neither can celtic tuning that advertise on here! I have tryed loads and loads of places and they all said no! Apart from this one company that are fiat tuning specialist 'GSR engineering'... i would really recommend this guy he was very knowledgable and helpfully! Although i haven't had the remap done im saving my pennys to have it done very soon? He can offer an 'off the shelve' remaps and 'live' remaps; the different being an off the shelve is cheaper and is just programmd to the typical 1.8 varient! Were as a 'live' remap will give you a few more bhp as it is done persific to your car and your current engine modifications? Thats why i didnt have my done straight away as im getting a supersprint exhuast and induction put on first then the live remap? If you do a google search you find his details?
Good luck hope this helps
EDIT: you cant get a superchip as the ecu as a flash back memory!
EDIT: If your woundering about prices for a typical supersprint centre sections and back box the cheapest i could find was £570 thats without fitting! if you want a supersprint manifold aswell there about £340!
Plus an induction kit a K&N 57i will cost around £60-70
And a live remap £250 buts thats a cheaper rate as they guy is a member on here who owns the comapny and does a special rate for FF members
The only other option is a novitec supercharger which is rather expensive, but boost the bhp to around 182 solely? Its something like 2-3000 euro's and i should think fitting would be expensive too...
The guy at gsr also mention being able to head work, i dont know what other tuning goodie's he can offer for the 1.8 atm as i havent enquired any further, but i have seen uprated camshafts avaliable for the 1.8 for around £350
