[johnlambert]

just a remap nothing else will i notice anything new in power ?
ive a westcoast about 77bhp. im told remap will get it upto 85bhp.
mid range power higher or top end?

Save your money and only do a remap after camming an engine!

No point doing it on a stock one.

Very unlikly to gain 10% from a stock remap!

pretty optimistic claim ! i doubt you will notice any difference.
with big wheels and a boot full of subs even if you get 85bhp performance would be better if car was bog standard tbh !

I have a Cammed mk2 Vtr, what kind of benefit would i see if i got an engine map , im told im running 108 bhp currently ?

[ukgaz]

Mapping on N/A is not always seeing a major difference, you'll probably at most increase by about 8bhp

[johnlambert]

so i wouldn notice ANY diff at all???

IMO the first point you should start thinking about a remap is after fitting:
Induction
Manifold
Full exhaust system
Cams

anything before that would almost be pointless

[steves810]

am looking to get mine remapped after the engines been rebored and skimmed, new exhaust, induction kit, manifold, how much extra bhp do you think i would get?

would be impossible to say mate, depends on what make your bits are condition of engine etc

you wont get the cylinders bored, the wall lining is far too thin. there is no point remapping your ecu with those mods wait until you have cams

johnlambert - You will notice a difference but not much and you will probably get used to it very quickly. Without trying to come across in the wrong way, with 6 or so years experience on Saxo sites do not bother try to make a slow car slightly faster. Unless you are considering spending serious money tuning your 1.4 you'll only end up getting it around VTR pace for more money than an engine conversion. New people dont seem to like hearing this, I dont know why. There was a guy called LeeVTR iirc who was adamant that he was going to cam his VTR despite advise from me and a few others to go with a VTS conversion. Needless to say once he had cammed his VTR he said he should have got a VTS engine put in - instead.

Vtr_HBO - Depending on your other mods up to 130bhp once correctly mapped.
