dude Posted September 29, 2010 Share Posted September 29, 2010 Just to let all you guys with turbo diesels especially know we are offering a chip tuning service, works especially well on turbo diesels but will improve petrol cars, for example a peugeot 206 TD will get an increase of around 30 hp and 50ft lb of torque with an INCREASE in mpg (if driven normally). price is normally £350 for most european cars, we will do a special offer to forum members of £250, if done in house a dyno run before and after is also possible. Larger more exotic type cars also catered for ie V10 Tuareg, Range Rover TDV8, BMW. call for discounted price and qoute MKIV.net chip tuning.

jimwire Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 Would this be a full remap or some sort of chip installed? I have a mondeo st 2.2 diesel and might be interested in this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dr_jekyll Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 hey dude, im looking to buy an e46 330d as a daily , what sort of gains in performance and mpg could i expect to see Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Raven Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 OOO more power for the 1.5 dci. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dwayne Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 hey dude, im looking to buy an e46 330d as a daily , what sort of gains in performance and mpg could i expect to see me too! i have heard that with the fuel it saves these things pay for themselves after so many miles and with a little extra power to enjoy they're well worth doing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dr_jekyll Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 me too! i have heard that with the fuel it saves these things pay for themselves after so many miles and with a little extra power to enjoy they're well worth doing yea my mate has a 530d thats faster than my n/a and averages nearly 40mpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 I'd recommend it to everyone thinking of getting it done. My Golf mk5 1.9 tdi went from 105 to around 150 bhp and the torque has shot right up. I've noticed a difference in mpg too but unfortunately it's not got a trip computer so don't have figures for this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz6002 Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 Dude, can you explain how you get better MPG as well as power/torque? Is it at the expense of emissions? Can you 'do' a Jaguar X-Type diesel? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnny g Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 I think it's due to you using less throttle relative to original map. Not sure though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamesy Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 I had a chip fitted to my Vectra 1.9 CDTi and it turned into an animal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz6002 Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 Also, would you recommend doing any other mods as well as the 'chip' to maximise performance? Air filter? Will the car be noiser after having the reflash? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is no reinstalling of chips, it is optimisation of the present file in the chip in the ecu using specialist equipment, gains will be 30bhp and 50NM of torque withup to a 20% increase in fuel economy in the NORMAL driving cycle.

Can you 'do' a Jaguar X-Type diesel? I always thought it was a more efficient map by not running so rich throughout the range. Leaning it out gains power and efficiency. Stock cars generally run silly safe rich. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dude Posted October 11, 2010 Author Share Posted October 11, 2010 All these can be taken further but at the cost of economy and a little black smoke under full load. The 3series 335D Bi Turbo with a few mods becomes quicker than the M3 Im very tempted at the moment:innocent: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stock cars generally run silly safe rich. Basically because everything is optimised the engine becomes more efficient, as you know a more efficient engine will use less fuel, yes it is also relavent to % of throttle used ie you will need less throttle to achieve the same rate of acceleration and velocity up a certain hill compared to before it was reflashed. Its all to do with removing the smooth torque limiters therfore at light throttle you get the same power delivery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 Tuna are doing remaps !!!!!!!!! Lol, Superchips. They make the bluefin handsets, plug into the ODB port and within 2 mins it is re-mapped. Simply plug it back in to put the stock map back on. Can swap about as much as you require for insurance/warranty purposes. They are a good option for a non-custom map.

Josh Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 Mine's no more noisy now than it was before the remap. When I put my foot down a lot if uses a hell of a lot of fuel but with normal driving I get about 50 miles more per tank than I did before.

Josh Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 Sounds almost too good to be true. Why don't more people do it? Because most are marketed as performance upgrades and most places charge £500+ so I don't think many people are that tempted. I'm sure if they talked about the fuel saving as well as performance upgrades there would be a lot more people doing it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
