I have already covered your point about this car being down on power in stock form and the fact that it cannot be related to the original mapping and that, as was the case with the 1*2s it must be related to something such as, the poorly cast inlet manifolds as was the case on the 1*2s
well for starters, the 197 has only ever claimed to have 194bhp (197 is the PS measurement)
Secondly, the car wont be down on power due to the map, as its the same map on all 197s out the factory. The power loss is coming from somewhere else. So the fact the remap gained 15bhp on a car thats...
the f/1.4 is the one I have and is better quality glass and obviously had the larger aperture. TBH as your asking the question, I would say stick with the f/1.8.
That car isnt making book figures before remap...
Check the times on the graph and you will see its back to back
Its just a remap no other mods
Wish I hadnt posted now, I am getting flamed for other peoples claims...
I think thejesus probably has the most experience with ITBs.
iirc idle will depend on how wild your cams are.
I think there is another design that AWT and GDi use which is meant to be better
Done properly dont think there would be any issues with reliability
Well that graph was sent to me by K-Tec, who use an RS Tuning map (or at least it would appear so as it says RS Tuning on the graph) and that shows 15bhp gain.
Cant really argue with that?
Or if you want to, phone K-tec or Rs Tuning lol
