JamieP Posted August 16, 2009 Share Posted August 16, 2009 The stock ecu cant be remapped, click on bpu for all the info you need. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz6002 Posted August 16, 2009 Share Posted August 16, 2009 You can't remap the car without a new ECU (£££) - edit: like Jamie says. The boost controller isn't necessary, why spend all that cash when a 1.2 bar restrictor ring, decat and fuel pump gives you almost 400bhp? Go BPU first, then add other bits in time. BPU is tried and tested, and believe me it's a huge improvement over stock. It really kicks at 4000rpm and feels like you've been hit in the back by a train. Best £1000 you'll ever spend Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best £1000 you'll ever spend BPU is the way forward, and to plagairise another member here (I can't remember who!) it will make your daily drive more enjoyable. Noisier, but what the hey?! £1000 - depending upon your current setup. In my experience you need a decent exhaust but the bpu thread is invaluable.

Best £1000 you'll ever spend as above! the best mod (money/power gain ratio) you will ever spend. what mods do you currently have? that will enable people to give u a clearer indication of money you'd need to spend to get the full bpu achieved!

Jamesy Posted August 17, 2009 Share Posted August 17, 2009 not really worth it mate just get the fcd, decats, fuel pump etc and restrictor ring and see what u think then ; Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nigelboyne Posted August 18, 2009 Share Posted August 18, 2009 a new large front mount really makes a big difference. a new ecu is expensive not worth the money on bpu it does allow me to go 1.4 bar which is quick. it ticks over better and drives lovely and power is smooth rev limiter raised means 3rd will see you to 100mph Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thorin Posted August 18, 2009 Share Posted August 18, 2009 hks injectors Really? And what are you using to control fuelling with these? I'd wager you've just got stock injectors personally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
