hi Guys, tbh Im not suprised that removing a DFIC and (presumably poorly set up) unichip gained so much power. I bet stock ecu prog and stock intercooler would be much better. Having said that it only takes a small leak on the intercooler bellows and thats 30 horsepower out the window which could easily be (incorrectly) awarded as 'a power increase' to the next lucky tuning part fitted that happens to 'unknowingly' sort the leak at the same time.
The consequences of a poor remap are huge, it will often result in a destroyed engine. Im quite happy to declare that we would not entertain any kind of warranty claim on engine internals/detonation damage if the customer has it remapped/unichip/bluefin etc etc after a GTT conversion. ...I say that as I want peoples engines to stay together.!
- You need to ask the person mapping if they will warranty your engine internals if detonation occurs, as theyre product has more effect on that than most.
Nearly every engine I know of thats gone bang has been running remaps/piggybacks.
Yes they can be very good, but think of it as ... ..your stock mapping being 97% as good as it can be with the various other tuning parts fitted..... Now if its a 50/50 chance of improving it the last 3% OR things going bang 2 months later ...Do you still want to risk that remap?
Im confident that with our mth remaps you will get '2% of that last 3%' partly because we can relay with mth accuratly what is required and we througherly test before the car goes out. -raising the rev limit gains a couple of bhp ,but do you realy want to?
There are various ways of adjusting the fuelling..
1) injector duration (remap of altering map sensor signal to ecu with unichip or Apexi)
2) injector size
3)fuel pressure.
We can offer any of these, we have various injector sizes, adjustable fuel pressure regulators, MTH remaps , or we can fit and programme the Apexi piggyback, using wideband sensor screwed in the exhaust actually on the road with actual air cooling ,on your actual car!....
We can do the same setup procedure with the new adjustable FPR also .....
It depends what your prepared to budget for,but whatever the budget reliability must not be compromised.
Finally one tuners idea of the 'correct' AF ratio can be very different to another tuners....so be careful guys
Best Regards Roland GTT
