A mate said its possible to remap a car to use less fuel, would this be possible with a 1.4 8v and if so what fuel consumption would I be looking at?
Cheers
Aaron

Waste of money on a 1.4 if you're wanting to save fuel. If anything it'll use more.

Am i right in thinking you can put the fuel injectors from a 1.1 8v to improve consumption in the 1.4 8v?

For the tiny effect it may have, it wouldn't be worth a £300+ cost of a remap.
