Arrow Do you think 150-170bhp possible of MCD?

as above??

im thinking of ordering one but im not sure yet! want to see whether i can possibly get 150 or even 170bhp of this car and if so then what mods am i looking at??

any contact numbers would be good too

it is either this, BMW 320CD or a Astra sporthatch 150(with £300 u can get 200bhp, same as the 888)

If you can it will cost a lot of money and it'l probably be best to get a different car with the money you will be spending!

and when you come to sell it you will have trouble with re-sale if its heavily moddified!

im not talking about heavy modifications to be honest! was thinkin something along chipping, remap, new exhaust system??

if u could get the MOD from 88 to around 110 then im sure u can get similiar increase with the MCD??

am i wrong?

Check out Peugeot people as the engine has been out a couple of years in the 206 etc so they should know how it will tune

I'd bear in mind that the power output of this engine was originally 90bhp when it was launched by Peugeot; I'd be concerned to stress the basic design much further than 110bhp and I'd guess that the power outputs that you are talking about by ECU upgrade alone would be near impossible to achieve.

I'm assuming that this is a typo, but HPi (in Peugeot speak) is direct injection petrol and HDi is direct injection diesel. I've had use of car with a Peugeot HPi engine.

im pretty sure the pug had 110 since the day they brought it out as i test drove one, but settled for a civic sport!

so getting 150bhp of the mcd without any huge mods wont be possible????

The VW 1.9 TDi lump was originally 90bhp, they upgraded to 150bhp PD TDi in the Bora & Golf GT TDi, and then the tuners were able to take this up to 180bhp, so it is hard to say. I would have thought up to 130bhp with just a remap, then possibly another 10-20bhp with more mods, but that would cost ££££

I asked this earlier in this topic: -link-

For a month ago I wrote Lohen a mail about it, they don't have packages YET. I'm sure they will come with some nice things.
'You can tune a Cooper D to huge BHP due to it being a Turbo. You could do manifold, cat-back, enlarge the turbo, ECU remap, CAI etc.'
