#1: remapping modifications? Author: Adam2061994, Location: WrexhamPosted: Tue Jun 19, 2012 3:53 pm ---- right i am looking to have my car remapped in the next couple of months, i have had the head skimmed to 20 thou with my 206 1.6 8v and it is fitted with a 4-2-1 stainless steel high flow exhaust manifold with an ecosse straight pipe, going to a stainless steel pipe to a peco big bore back box, i will be buying the viper induction kit next month and i have heard that if you have a good basic set of breathing modifications then a remap will always benfit a lot more, i would say that standard with all those modifications im at around 105 hp from that standard 90hp it came out factory with? what are peoples views and what do you feel the outcomes will be with the straight through exhaust and big induction kit and power mani and that? any views will be welcome, thanks! (:

#4: Re: remapping modifications? Author: Adam2061994, Location: WrexhamPosted: Tue Jun 19, 2012 4:15 pm ---- well i had the head skimmed that muhc because when i had low compression because the headgasket had split thye had to skim the head by 20thou because it was that bad, but it goes hell of alot better, and i just want to know with the remap with all these things what it can bring it up too? ive seen red dot racing tune a standard 206 1.6 8v with just a remap and gsr induction kit to 110 from 90 its on youtube so wondering with my manifold and that and everything what i could be getting?
#5: Re: remapping modifications? Author: Seabook, Posted: Tue Jun 19, 2012 4:17 pm ---- because that is a red dot map....
#6: Re: remapping modifications? Author: Adam2061994, Location: WrexhamPosted: Tue Jun 19, 2012 4:22 pm ---- what do you mean because its a red dot map, whats the difference to any other map?

#11: Re: remapping modifications? Author: Big_Rich180, Posted: Wed Jun 20, 2012 7:11 am ---- Red Dot are fairly renowned on here for having a RR that gives very very good/inaccurate figures.
Most people seem to like RS tuning on here for maps and RR runs as they are more "accurate".
#12: Re: remapping modifications? Author: usher, Location: northallertonPosted: Wed Jun 20, 2012 9:05 am ---- when i was at rs tunung he said that red dot were unreliable

#14: Re: remapping modifications? Author: nellyhaggis, Location: SheffieldPosted: Thu Jun 21, 2012 1:28 pm ---- Why not just buy a 180?
People cant afford it.
or
People enjoy doing the work themselves.
#16: Re: remapping modifications? Author: nellyhaggis, Location: SheffieldPosted: Thu Jun 21, 2012 1:35 pm ---- All the work being done must equal the cost of a 180, if not less!

Refer to my second point then.
#18: Re: remapping modifications? Author: MrMorris, Location: Over that hill.Posted: Thu Jun 21, 2012 3:20 pm ---- why remap tho? without a turbo (petrol or diesel) you don't gain sod all from a remap 3-8bhp? £££'s for that? better off buying top set of tyres and having grip, then an extra 2.987BHP...
or
prove me wrong
#19: Re: remapping modifications? Author: spike_202, Location: West midsPosted: Thu Jun 21, 2012 11:18 pm ---- I would only say you need a remap after some more extensive head work even mild cams you can getaway with not having a remap, do what you want to do 1st then get it done as if you start changing things it will effect the running of the map.
You've gotta think how may road cars get head gasket work done and never get mapped after the work... Because it's not needed.
#20: Re: remapping modifications? Author: usher, Location: northallertonPosted: Fri Jun 22, 2012 6:13 am ---- i would disagree with spike only because mine needed a remap over time it started to run lean and got worse the longer i left it so go by how the car is running rather than the list of nods

Because regardless of power the car will drive much better
#23: Re: remapping modifications? Author: VorTechS, Location: Gloucestershire, UKPosted: Tue Jun 26, 2012 3:12 am ---- Mine is probably the 1.6 8v you have seen on YouTube on the Red Dot dyno, and it was subsequently put back on a different RR (I think about 6 months later) and given a different figure of 101BHP with no further modifications (except for different Alloys).
#24: Re: remapping modifications? Author: Big_Rich180, Posted: Tue Jun 26, 2012 3:19 am ---- What did you run at Red Dot?

'103' before the remap (with GSR and 4" backbox) and '110' after.
