1.2 ecu re map from k tec ( new )

[kie1an]

I think this is new as i have never seen it before and im regular on the k tec site . How much in gains do you expect this to give .? lol bear in mind the 1.2 16 v runs at 75 bhp standard .

 

[f0xy]

most likely near nothing.... save weight ftw!

my car has no weight lol just stumbled across this on k tec . must be new ! £300 ftl !!

lol compared to f0xys though?

interesting i was looking at it a few weeks ago.. havent heard about it from anyone yet.

 

[kie1an]

dont know mate compared to foxy's as he has buckets , iv still got my standard seats in atm : / mines got no doorcards though and yes i think this remap is deffinately new . so likewise heard nothing about it .

 

[kie1an]

bump for someone that knows about this sort of thing .

 

[Martin_172]

wont give any power gain, slightly better driveability.

 

[mattjk]

What he said! ^

 

[kie1an]

not worth £300 then ! lol

 

[E11OOT]

buying one of those resistors off of ebay would be just as useful as remapping a standard 1.2

£5 vs £300 lol

 

[alex91621]

i am thinking about this remap too, but it is too expensive for a 1.2 car
300 prounds=.= crazy

 

[Michael172]

r8ftw had it done didnt he? About 8bhp gains from what i hear.

aparantly all it really does it increase the power lower down so it revs better, and theres a little poof of power like a 3k kick, which i get in mine anyways.

i certainly wouldnt do it. i might with a 1.6 16v or certianly a 2L.

 

[Laura]

yeah i think jamie had it done on his

 

[Michael172]

if it was 150 i might consider it but that is just ridiculous for a 1.2

 

[theduck]

is this not jsut the RS Tunings remap? I'd put the money towards light weight alloys etc instead

 

[f0xy]

jamies was at rstuning as a test.

 

[Christopher]

K-Tec use RSTuning maps though IIRC.

 

[theduck]

they do for 197 at least

 

[RSTuning]

Yes this is our map, gives very good gains in therms of %. I think we saw 8hp and 8lbft which is alot for the power they are!

 

[mini-valver]

8bhp AND better MPG though remember. A very worthwhile mod IMO, considering people spend £150 on a Viper.....

 

[clio_manu]

I got a remap on my twingo 1.2 8V and the car was like 1.4 sec faster on the 1/4 mile, cheers.

8bhp for 300 quid. Id just have a good sh*t and dont have food before i went out in the car be about the same

 

[Martin_172]

tbh if you get a genuine 8bhp then on the 1.2 thats pretty good bhp per £ when you think what people spend on exhausts and filters.

i always ment to get mine mapped but never got round to it!

lmfao

tbh, with a remap and a full exhaust system, your really talkin about what, 10+ bhp? for what around £500? is it worth it though..

 

[Joe L]

But how much of a increase is that at the wheels? 5-bhp? thats up 6bhp per tonne, comparable to loosing 90kg.

 

[mattjk]

8bhp is a very good gain from a 1.2, however I'm skeptical

 

[mini-valver]

Of what?? RR before and after, same day, same rollers.

 

[robclio16v]

i spoke to k-tec about the map and they are getting around 9bhp from the remap

 

[J03]

thats not bad at all... 9bhp would make it nearly as fast as a 1.4, with a few more mods it can be quite quick

 

[robclio16v]

yer i reckon i stripped car with an exhaust filter and map could be a fun car especailly down the lanes with a good suspension setup with about 90 bhp or maybe more

 

[Dan 172]

You can't really complain about getting 10% more power for £300, from a 1.2 na.

1*2's are lucky to get 5% more power from a remap.

my 1.2 produces over 246bhp.

and your a sarcastic t**t lol

 

[kie1an]

do you rekon you could actually get a 1.2 up to 100 bhp ? exhaust , filter , k tek remap , decat ?!

 

[J03]

corsa c's seem to achieve that pretty easily... the 1.2s..

 

[robclio16v]

yer ive seen corsa c's do it easily so i think it should be easy to get the clio up to scratch to

 

[Olly1.216v]

Well ive got a pipercross air filter and a ktec cat back, but i was thinking they dont give power gains i got it for the sound.

But after reading this im thinking maybe if i get a remap it will all together make a differce?

 

[Luke.]

300 is expensive! for a 1.2 not worth it!

 

[Martin_172]

100bhp is just a number.

i had full exhaust inc decat, decent filter and air feed, fully stripped out and that little car went like f**k for what it was lol as many will back me up on!

 

[scottyb]

judging by the graphs on the site, it only puts the bhp up to 79.2bhp.

which is a 4bhp increase . rather shite.
