#1: Peugeot 1.4 HDi new purchase Author: James3107, Posted: Mon Sep 23, 2013 8:42 am ---- ***UPDATE***
[b]Hi Everyone.
Just purchased my first Peugeot and its a 1.4 Hdi in Blue (Pics to follow soon!)
These are when i first picked it up. notice somebody had been rather careless with the rear quater, so booked it in for a repair, respray and colour coding also he's gonna touch up some other little scratches for free if he has paint left over. which is good of him.
This is my first diesel car and by far the first economical car I've owned but with my new job requiring a 140 mile round trip every day, The vts has had to go.
I want more power out of the car and I'm planning a full custom built de-cat straight through exhaust from Tony Banks in Leeds and then remapping at RS tuning.
Will the exhaust affect the BHP much? and is it worth the £250+ price tag? will she still sound like a tractor?
Also i would prefer to fit an intercooler before the map as i really don't want overheating with such huge mileage every day.
I've combed the threads all morning and can't find any advice on intercooling a 1.4 HDi only info about the 2.0 HDi.
Is it considered not worth it or too much hassle?
any help would greatly be appreciated.
Thanks in advance Last edited by James3107 on Sun Sep 29, 2013 9:55 am; edited 3 times in total

Good choice and the exhaust. the CAT/particulate filter is right after the turbo stopping it from breathing freely. I'm in the middle of making a decat pipe up for mine.
Air box is quite restrictive to the turbo so I'll be looking into that as well. Remap sees them just shy of 100bhp but with an intercooler I reckon just over?
#3: Re: Peugeot 1.4 HDi new purchase Author: James3107, Posted: Mon Sep 23, 2013 10:11 am ---- Are you just decating or getting a full ss system?
Would the 2.0 hdi air box go on it? Maybe with a good panel filter I've heard induction systems are no good for diesels? Not 100% sure though.
Yeah I just want more bottom end poke. But don't want it overheating.
What about one if these universal fmic kits off eBay? The ones that come with ss pipe work. Would that go on these cars?
Im guessing an uprated clutch would be advised to handle the torque. Which could be a problem I've heard the paddle ones are heavy and I do a lot of town driving.
#4: Re: Peugeot 1.4 HDi new purchase Author: Timon2210, Location: PalestinePosted: Mon Sep 23, 2013 1:31 pm ---- not much power gain you can get from 1.4 HDi,things would be better if you had a 2.0 HDi,but it's your call

Going to go the whole hog and straight through the exhaust. And see what happens

A good quality oem filter is what you would be after, k & n filters have oil on them (to aid filtering) and that has a tendency to break the maf sensor. Wouldnt of thought the 2.0hdi setup will fit. Have a look in the projects section on here. There was a 1.4hdi with some different air setup.

Youll gain that with the exhaust being less restrictive.

Would be a custom job really. A mixture of 90 bends, 45 degree angles and silcone joiners. Twin pass intercooler really would suit the 206 well.

Uprated would help as the clutches are tiny in these. Mine is slipping now. But its on 171k and i reckon its original. I shall probably stick another oem one in, valeo/luk. Due to the driveability. Never actually driven a paddle clutch so cant comment actually.
With all these medications ensure you tell your insurance. Anything that wasn't there when it came out of the factory will be classed as a change.
#6: Re: Peugeot 1.4 HDi new purchase Author: TelaKeppi, Location: FinlandPosted: Fri Sep 27, 2013 11:00 am ---- If you are willing to spend, you can istall CDA intake like this
FMIC from 1.6 HDi (above) fits, but you could also go creative and do a custom chargecooler setup like what I've been doing.
Straight through pipe is a waste of money, just hollow out the cat and replace the backbox with straight pipe. No BHP gains, but turbo spools faster and you get lower EGT. You'll get bottom end poke by cleaning the intake and while doing so, block the EGR pipe to keep it clean longer.

Thats what I want to do, just need to justify the price tag for it.

So regular replace of air filter is a good idea then?

Yeah I've noticed mines already slipping if I put my foot down, which i don't really do so it's not inconvenient, but I'm going to get it replaced before the remap and hopefully it'll be strong enough.

That looks great! How much have you spent on a charge cooler? And is it a difficult set up to build? I haven't a lot of free time and I can't have my car off the road too long.
So the 1.6 Hdi cooler fits? does all the pipework fit or is that a custom job as well?

I've heard about blocking the EGR valve before? Is it a difficult job to do?
#9: Re: Peugeot 1.4 HDi new purchase Author: TelaKeppi, Location: FinlandPosted: Sat Sep 28, 2013 12:54 pm ---- You can use some of the piping, but the intake manifold is different. The blue pipe in the picture above will be pain to fit for sure.
Chargecooler itself was pretty cheap from eBay, around 100€. Modifying the cooler 300€. Bosch chargecooler pump 100€. Fiat Seicento radiator around 30€.
It's my daily driver as well so I bought another intake manifold to take measures and use it as a jig. Piping isn't done yet, its a slow process.
Blanking the EGR pipe is just a small plate from eBay. Quite easy to fit and doesn't need removing the pipe. After that, you'll have to get ECU reprogrammed, it throws faults when its blanked but no EML.
#10: Re: Peugeot 1.4 HDi new purchase Author: James3107, Posted: Sun Sep 29, 2013 10:01 am ---- So I decided to debadge it today and remove the pillar vinyls, I think they look better, but its a matter of opinion on this I think.
Ignore the condition of the number plates, private plates been sent off for, thinking about Stubby plates on as its 6 digits. I think this will suit the front as its so low but I'm a bit skeptical about the back. Anyone got pictures of this? or opinions?
Removing the Pillar Vinyl...
Finished products...

#13: Re: Peugeot 1.4 HDi new purchase Author: James3107, Posted: Mon Sep 30, 2013 9:17 am ---- Gave her a service today as the service history stopped in 2009 but was full to max of oil and new discs and pads on front, oil filter looked dirty but not full of gunk, as was the air filter so I presume its been serviced in the last 4 years.
chose crosland filters and Shell Helix ultra 5w 40
#14: Re: Peugeot 1.4 HDi new purchase Author: James3107, Posted: Mon Sep 30, 2013 9:23 am ---- Also I'm wanting some Hid's but definitely don't want to be that
that drives round with hid's in their reflectors, does anyone know of decent OEM looking projectors that i can attach a 5k hid kit to? Dont want chavvy looking ones, but I do quite like the masked crystals, any projector alternatives?
looking into some junyan crystals as well for the rear, but can't find a supplier anywhere! anybody pruchased these before?
Wheel choice at the moment is white 16" Nimrods, I originally thought white as the car was such a basic blue that looks awful up to the aegean blue, it needed something to make it stand out. But I am a little apprehensive to take the plunge, any better colour anyone would recommend or any feedback on the white would be appreciated.
Thanks
#15: Re: Peugeot 1.4 HDi new purchase Author: James3107, Posted: Tue Oct 01, 2013 4:54 pm ---- Decided to De-cat today...
seems a little more responsive now and pulls lower down in the rev range, think with a remap this will be fairly nippy for a small derv.
also added some SMD's for chavvynes
#16: Re: Peugeot 1.4 HDi new purchase Author: gazza82, Location: South BucksPosted: Wed Oct 02, 2013 3:27 am ---- I had to decat our recently as the cat core collapsed and blocked the exhaust ... being overtaken by artics on the motorway was not fun ...
#17: Re: Peugeot 1.4 HDi new purchase Author: James3107, Posted: Wed Oct 02, 2013 6:42 am ---- Haha, have you noticed any difference with yours? I think the bottom end lag isn't as noticable now, Can't wait to get it mapped up think it'll make it a different car to drive.
#18: Re: Peugeot 1.4 HDi new purchase Author: sicskate, Location: Margate, KentPosted: Thu Oct 03, 2013 5:41 am ---- I had my 1.4hdi 307 remapped, no engine mods were done.
Although it was just an OBD remap, the improvement was amazing.
I've done just shy of 6k miles since the map, and it's still going perfect.
#19: Re: Peugeot 1.4 HDi new purchase Author: James3107, Posted: Thu Oct 03, 2013 8:44 pm ---- no smoke or anything? have you noticed any fuel gains? it's the bottom end lag before the turbo spools up that i want to lose. Have you noticed any improvement there?
sounds a worth while investment then
#20: Re: Peugeot 1.4 HDi new purchase Author: dsiingh, Location: West MidlandsPosted: Sat Oct 19, 2013 12:09 am ---- Love the de-vinyling of the door pillars. Ive brought my 1.4 hdi 2 days ago, and have been looking at your thread. Whats the benefits of decatting? would i need to mod anything else after decatting? I was thinking of a remap too
#21: Re: Peugeot 1.4 HDi new purchase Author: sicskate, Location: Margate, KentPosted: Sat Oct 19, 2013 5:06 am ---- Fuel consumption seems to be about the same, but I only really do town driving.
As for lag, it's a massive improvement, I used to sheet my pants pulling out in first, buy its a lot better now.
I can even overtake with confidence.
#22: Re: Peugeot 1.4 HDi new purchase Author: James3107, Posted: Mon Oct 21, 2013 5:19 pm ---- The door vinyls were a piece of p s to do..
Just peeled off if you take your time, do it slowly and make sure you follow it round the lip as well, quick coat of bug and tar remover after to get rid of the sticky feel, a wax and your done. took about 15 mins and that was taking time.
the decat has made improvement especially bottom end turbo lag, however i think a full stainless and remap are required to really appreciate the results, which is next on my list after the timing belt and clutch.
I'm really happy with my 1.4, I know everybody says get a 2 ltr for speed, but I pay peanuts on insurance, tax is only £30 and it still has enough poke to see these pesky chavs in 1.2's off. Last edited by James3107 on Mon Oct 21, 2013 5:25 pm; edited 1 time in total

No, people have said that lights can appear on your dashboard. But I haven't experienced this and would recommend it to anyone.
I think remapping a diesel just goes without saying, although make sure you have a good clutch installed, a recent stock one if not an uprated one. I'm going to stick a valeo in mine because I do so much town driving I don't want a heavy sports clutch.
#24: Re: Peugeot 1.4 HDi new purchase Author: dsiingh, Location: West MidlandsPosted: Wed Oct 23, 2013 2:24 pm ---- I love my 1.4 HDI too have just done 240 miles around town and still sitting 1-2mm above halfway tank! Ill be up and down the motorway for the next two days so will report back on what I get.
I think ill change my clutch and timing belt before I consider a remap. Any videos or pictures of your decat? I am interested but the benefits have to outweigh the costs. Did you do the decat yourself?

I think I took some pictures but no video I'm afraid, yeah did it myself, and i'd day I have very little diy experience, I just did it step by step.
1. Remove heat shield
2. unbolt from manifold
3. unbolt from centre section.
4. used hammer and a old screwdriver to smash internals out. (making sure its all out of the corners.
5. bolt all back up, i put a little exhaust paste round seals aswell from extra security.
It cost me nothing, unless you count the exhaust paste, which i used from a previous exhaust job.
#26: Re: Peugeot 1.4 HDi new purchase Author: gazza82, Location: South BucksPosted: Thu Oct 24, 2013 3:59 am ---- At the moment de-cat on a diesel won't cause mot problem but in the future it might. I think the diesel cat is also to catch soot particles so it might be a bit smokey at times.
I've not had any warning lights since I removed mine, but I will probably get a replacement at some stage before the MOT next Feb ... or I'll take it in a month early and if it fails the smoke-test, replace it then. Performance seems to be about the same with a working cat and without one ...
#27: Re: Peugeot 1.4 HDi new purchase Author: James3107, Posted: Thu Oct 24, 2013 6:01 am ---- If anything I think the smoke is better, with the cat on it seemed to build up then dump it all out when i floored it leaving the car behind in a cloud of smoke. but now when i floor it, it seems to throw out barely no smoke.
#28: Re: Peugeot 1.4 HDi new purchase Author: dsiingh, Location: West MidlandsPosted: Sat Nov 09, 2013 3:03 am ---- How about this EGR valve? have you guys removed this? I saw a how to somehwere here. Was wondering would it be beneficial to a 1.4 hdi?

I've heard it can play havoc with the engine management system, so I'm leaving that well alone
On a plus note just did a 400 mile round trip and averaged 84 mpg!!!
God I love my little Pug
#30: Re: Peugeot 1.4 HDi new purchase Author: James3107, Posted: Sat Nov 16, 2013 7:12 am ---- Finally got my plate sorted...
#31: Re: Peugeot 1.4 HDi new purchase Author: dsiingh, Location: West MidlandsPosted: Mon Nov 18, 2013 3:02 pm ---- I averaged 60mpg which was 400ish miles of motorway and 240ish miles of local driving. God these 1.4 beasts are like vw equivalent of bluemotion. nice plate mate, did you stick it on?
#32: Re: Peugeot 1.4 HDi new purchase Author: daxo, Posted: Tue Nov 19, 2013 3:38 am ---- cool .. keep coming with updates. . I got my self a 1.4 hdi recently. . fuel economy is amazing.. I was lookinh to put an intercooler on it, I found a diy project on the internet, u may want to consider doing. it looks easy.
the link is : intercooler mod
its in french but using Google translator there is not problem
it looks like a air to air intercooler, anyone has done this before ? would it be a good idea?

Tell me about it, my work colleague has a 13 plate Aygo and even that can't match these for fuel economy, where I live 75% of roads are hills, he's having to use first for hills my little Pug can do in 3rd... I love it!
Yeah I just used some double sided number plate tape from local car shop, 99p I think and its like tiger seal, no idea how I'm going to get it off to trim it, going to try a DIY stubby plate using another plate for shaping guidance, hopefully it'll look ok, just need to get rid of the pesky screw holes first.

Thanks for the link Looks a great read! I'm looking into doing this myself before I get a remap, I'm hoping for 110bhp which I hope isn't too optimistic, the intercooler should vastly improve efficiency as well, although my 206 always seems to run very cool anyway and doesn't hit 90 degrees usually, and i do a lot of local delivery driving, with some big hills!
Where abouts are you based? I'd highly recommend RS Tuning if you are considering remapping. They've mapped my Rs Turbo and the difference was amazing! I know a 1.4 HDi isn't exactly a pocket rocket, but there's plenty of torque potential there
#34: Re: Peugeot 1.4 HDi new purchase Author: James3107, Posted: Sun Jan 12, 2014 7:01 am ---- Hello everyone.
Haven't updated this in a while been really busy and haven't done anything in the way of modifications. Just had clutch done, and timing belt is booked in for wednesday at the grand price of £180!
Also bought some MTEC Cosmos Blue, which are definately worth a purchase, great light output!
I've just purchased these little beauties
All being well, going to collect Monday.
However I have a few question on them
I originally have steelies so they bolts for the wheels are black and frankly awful. Does anybody know the correct size wheel bolt and where to buy them?
Also regarding tyres, when putting a Gti reg into black circles to get tyre quotes its coming up with a rim size of 15, yet aren't the Gti nimrods 16's?
All help greatly appreciated! Thanks

Nice rims!
Yes, nimrods are 16 inch. You'll want 195/45/16 or 205/45/16. The 45 is the profile, so you can increase them if needed

Thanks, hopefully will look ok on my indigo, if not I'll do them anthracite. Paid £95 for them with recent refurb, tyres need replacing though.
Thanks for that, I can get some tyre quotes now.

Yeah as soon as the exterior is sorted so it doesn't look so entry level and all mechanics are up to scratch I'm gonna start putting some money into it. I love the charge cooler idea but I'm gonna have to look into costing first, Gonna get a remap ASAP, and i've been speaking with a company called advancedflo exhausts where I live, so gonna get them to build a straight through. Need to get rid of that enormous chamber where the cat used to be, I'm sure it'll be affecting performance. How is yours going, cost wise and difficulty in getting it done, problem is there uisn't that many people who've cooled a 1.4 hdi. It's usually the 2.0 lump.
#39: Re: Peugeot 1.4 HDi new purchase Author: James3107, Posted: Sun Mar 09, 2014 7:55 am ---- So Wheel's nearly finished... Finally!
Gonna book in for tyres hopefully next week.
I've decided on Toyo Proxies T1-R
Anybody have any feedback for these tyres size is 215/40/r16
I know they ain't perfect but I wasn't really bothered about them been flawless as it's used as a delivery car so it get a fair amount of abuse. So results are rattle can sprayed and lacquered with no filler or primer used.
BEfore Lacquer
How they started against now
#40: Re: Peugeot 1.4 HDi new purchase Author: dsiingh, Location: West MidlandsPosted: Sun Mar 09, 2014 8:31 am ---- Hey man, hows it going? I had my cambelt, waterpump, anti freeze flush and fill, auxiliary belt plus tensioners done for a whopping £320 quid. Im currently on 108k miles with an average of 54mg. I want to change my interior and and wheels. Im not enjoying the hard ride at the moment thinking of changing to coil overs.
wheels are looking mint by the way...any pictures of them on the car ??

Yeah not going too bad thanks. Wow that was steep. Had my cambelt and waterpump done about a month ago at 105k costing a total of £170. But when the guy did it, he showed me the belt that he took off, which looked almost brand new, most of the writing was still on the belt. Definitely had been changed recently, I just had no proof
Yeah I hate my interior too, it's an awful light blue. I quite fancy the Quicksilver interior, gonna add it to the to do list haha. Which is growing considerably.
Now I've had clutch and belt done, going to get my cat back sorted and remapped, which should take it to about 95bhp.
sadly I only have this picture, which was before spraying.
Definitely needs lowering, that arch gap is ridiculous! The ride in mine isnt too bad, the only thing I don't like is the body roll round corners, hopefully the fatter tyres will help this and after I fit some springs and dampers, I'm considering a Strut brace, 45mm drop on Bilstein dampers should make it corner a little better at least.
#42: Re: Peugeot 1.4 HDi new purchase Author: James3107, Posted: Mon Sep 01, 2014 10:23 am ---- So I de wipered it today
However left with a mark on the glass
Will it come off or do I need a bigger gromit?
Also regarding tyres, when putting a Gti reg into black circles to get tyre quotes its coming up with a rim size of 15, yet aren't the Gti nimrods 16's?
Had T1-Rs on a few cars, for the price they normally cost they're cracking tyres.
Seem to recall they can suffer from premature shoulder wear, so not really suited to the long term too well. Depends how you drive, of course.
