182 chip to 210bhp????

[Dave H]

Just bought a 182Cup and was offered a 'power package' which upped the power to 210bhp.
Was told it was an Ecu remap.....l told them 'theres no way'!!!

 

[Mike-bham]

Indeed.
Silly buggers.

 

[cli0 172]

lol ... had they read the calendar wrong thinking it was an April fool ?

 

[White16valver]

Where did you buy it from?

 

[dick]

why couldnt it be remapped? :s

It can be remapped its the 210hp claims which won't be true you'd get maybe 5hp at best from a remap on a stock engine you need cams realy to get over 200hp or throttle bodies etc.

I thought if you put the chip out of the megane turbo into a 182 you got 225bhp?

This is a joke before I get slaughtered, lol.

But I am sure I have seen this comment made on the forum before. If you bought your car from a Renault dealer you should report them

You have, and now he's a mod

 

[gazcaddy]

Jokers!

GDI can give you 210bhp from the 172/182 but the engine is expensive to get alot of power out of

oh... we have this special paint that goes onto the inside of the inlet manifold and exhaust that gives 15bhp alone... due to latent heat back pressure retention

 

[mr bognor]

I will have some of that lol
