182 remap????

[AUTOCRASH]

JUST GOT MY FIRST 182 AND NOW WANT TO MOD IT!
ECU REMAP AT KTEC A GOOD MOVE OR NOT????

 

[Sanders]

Get an rs tuner instead

 

[DanFreemanPhoto]

Stop shouting.

RSTuner remap is much better.

 

[LowLife.]

How ironic is your username...


Anyways. Why not just get used to the 182 before 'modding' it. I've waited two years to boost mine.

 

[AUTOCRASH]

I RUN A BODYSHOP CALLED AUTOCRASH!!! ANYONE KNOW AN RS TUNER IN TH BERSHIRE AREA??

You didn't offend me.

I wish I could advice you, but I guess I can't.

People on here like the RStuner mate.
From what I gather it is a device that you can download maps onto and then upload them to your car via the EOBD port.
I think they are around £200 new and come with a licence that allows you to put your maps on one car.
People tend to sell them on here (You will have to join and pay a membership) but they sell them with no licences, which means you will have to buy one from Fastchip themselves.

I believe there are some companies on here that do remaps and rolling roads. I believe one of them is JMS.

Hope that helps mate.

 

[AUTOCRASH]

not a prob mate!!!
got a mail to go to jamsport in northampton!!!anyone else recomend?

You didn't offend me.

There is no point in remapping a standard car.

What other modifications are you planning? What sort of power are you after.

Mapping is the last thing I shall be doing :race:

 

[Poopensharten]

Remapping a standard engine will gather little gains my friend! Normally aspirated cars rely on cubic capacity for GO as im sure you're aware!

 

[AUTOCRASH]

cheers mate thats very helpfull!!!!

A calibration "map" on a standard car will add a couple of extra horses at the peak power end of the scale, what 90% of the people on here don't consider is the changes it makes to the entire power curve, especially the increase in torque below 5,000 rpm & the cold start improvements, as with any n/a vehicle you can't compare the gains to forced induction as it's a different playing field!

 

[LowLife.]

Imo, it's a waste of money on a standard car.

If it was something like uprated filter, exhaust, decat etc then maybe.

I agree, enjoying the standard car is worth more.

 

[LowLife.]

Obviously though some people might see it as worthwhile if it is something they could offer/sell....:rasp:

 

[Russ_16v]

You need to decide what route you want to take.

The standard ECU can adjust to filter and exhaust changes, but still would benefit from a map - bear in mind the basics are it will drive smoother but not feel a huge faster.

If you want cams, throttle bodies etc then keep your cash in your pocket and wait untill those mods are carried out - you wouldnt stick a new set of tyres on your car if you were buying some new wheels in a months time would you? Mapping a car when you want to tune it further is the same

RSTuner remap is much better.

based on what? I've been at ktec when a car came in with an rstuner map on it already, did a power run, and all commented how impressive it was. Then Andy and Mike made some changes, did a few runs and made 6bhp more
