I`m looking at getting a re-map and 48,000 mile service done soon on my 182 and are planning to head down to K-Tec. Ive heard mixed stories about tuners claiming certain % increases and not actually delivering what youve been told. How true is this? Should I stick with K-Tec or can anyone recommend me anyone else?

ballbag thats a new one
ok friend! better mpg, higher rev limet, 4-6bhp
but yes if you were going to mod the car in the future hold out then bring all the mods together with a re-map!
The Boosh!

Remap smooths the power curve and makes the car feel alot more pleasent to drive. Also improves MPG!
Will be more worth wile if you have mods to tweek the map too though.

Thank you.
Unfortunately not all of us have the obvious in depth, technical knowledge of a Renaultsport engine that you have. So instead of posting unnecessary sarcastic remarks just tell us, less informed members, so in future silly questions are not asked and perhaps we can then in turn pass on the stuff we have learned

pay the £10 join-up fee and you can learn all you want from me you tight git :rasp:
ow and sarcastic remarks make this forum what it is lol
love you
So many people so many opinions lol. So remap no good until i further modify the car hey??I wish k-tec told me that when i booked it in. The only other thing I may modify engine wise is the exhaust. Im actually waiting for JMS to get back to me as I`m not far from there. I emailed them last night. Im having a mare trying to find their website (if they have one that is). They rekon with a re -map and panel filter I`ll get 200bhp. Am I smelling something there lol

aha flol thats crazy talk!
you would get 185bhp at the most with just that! thats if your cars running what it should aswel! tell them to sod off if their going to play that old game with you!

none of the 182's hit their book mark!
at the EA area rollingroad day not 1 182 got 182 lol
closest was a trophy 177 i think
mine got 168.8 with mods but it needs a re-map to help it all!

?? thought they did as they must test their turbo clios on one? can't awnser your question thoe as im not 100% myself!

IIRC JMS tuning use the RS tuner for Remapping. IE just a general map not on rollers ect.
Personally i would just buy my own RStuner (fastchip) in this case. (or contact paul at RStuning see if his Rstuning box is ready)
Because then at a later date you will be able to modify yyour own maps ect.
Live mapping is always the best on rollers/Dyno ect.
(not trying to **** james (JMS) off just my opinion)

i just can't beleive they quoted 200bhp with re-map and filter! if thats true how did they think they wouldn't get checked up on?
crazy
crazy
Just a note boys & girls, at no point did we quote 200bhp for the remap, not entirely sure where you got that figure as its crazy talk and we all know this.
The website www.jmstuning.co.uk makes this perfectly clear.
Both JMS cars have been RR'd at 181 & 184bhp, both are running decats, matched inlets, panel filters, CAFs & have had the RStuner based remap service carried out.
Hope that helps clear up the madness lol!
a turbo'd yellow car
thanks for clearing that up! was abit confused!
corsa ecoflex
just to chuck my pennies worth in...my ph1 was totally standard apart from an open cone filter...i got james to do the fastchip map,then got it on the rollers at surrey rolling road and it made 177.2 at the fly...so if your cars totally standard you will get nowhere near 200bhp...speak to james or tom and they will give you the complete low down on mapping,its well worth doing..if only you get it mapped and leave the rest of the engine standard

182
Thats well offside!! Red card to ktec if true!!!
Cant go wrong with JMS tbh
As for power, dont worry the 2.0 clio engine never makes its book output. 170+ is a strong result for a 182 on some accurate rollers.
If you are planning further mods though make sure you do the remap last to gain the most benefit
Insignia SRi
As said above you cant fault the JMS boys, had mine remapped by them last week and its amazing!!! The fact they are close makes it even better!!!
