172 Cup chip

[Dan85]

I'm thinking of chipping my cup? Is this a good idea?

Some advise much appreciated.

Cheers

Dan.

Do a search for chip or remap and you will find tonnes of info!

We can do you a remap for £275 all inc.

okay good info cheers lads. I've had a look at previous posts but........

Is there anyone who's chipped their cup - if so what chip and how much difference does it make?

Whats the max brake a chip could give me? Whats best basically!

 

[Dan85]

anyone..........

angel tuning say i'd get 12bhp increase. how true is this?

 

[len_beach]

You won't get anywhere near 12bhp mate, 5-8 at the best.

Whichever chip/map you choose, you will see gains very similar to those I have on my car which is what was in the link I posted. The 172 and Cup engine is identical so there won't really be any variation.

Unfortunately the F4R engine is very difficult to extract cheap power from. That is not to say a map is not worth it as you will see very good mid range gains in torque which is more important than top end bhp.

okay mate thanks.

where can that chip be done? I'm from Reading.

 

[Dan85]

don't worry just seen on the web site.

leeds is a bit far. do you know of anywhere near reading that will do it?

cheers
