thanks lol! whats you view on re maping the ecu? £175 gets you 30bhp?? i like the sound of that, just concerned about possible damage? also a dump valve? seen one for £175 on ebay im game but would appreciate your input

[xanadu]

If its done correctly then I believe you will have few issues (I can't comment too much, I have a 1.4). Dump valve no ideas.

There is a some remapping info on this forum (did we forget our login details lol)

I'd hold off a remap until you've made a couple of other changes.
decat, less restrictive exhaust, sdi injectors, up to boost then remap.

it's quite possible to take these to 160(ish) bhp and 250ft/lb torque without too much hassle.

from what I've heard, a dump valve actually hinders these more than it helps them.

[ryanG]

ive done the decat, how would i go about regarding the less restrictive exhaust, or does the decat cover that? a
