So question for you .. all this talk of power BHP etc ..

I've got a diesel, I use it for motorways and to be fair it's decent. 3l Audi A6 allroad.

I've been told I will jump from 240 - 285 with an increase of around 100NM of torque .. after a stage 1 remap and a new sports filter (cone I think)

Regardless of the car, am I likely to notice any real difference? when I had my impreza mapped by JGG to be honest I didn't really notice anything and it went from 215 to 280 with the small mods.

 

I have a audi a5 3.0l tdi quattro and im interested in this aswell

 

Theres pretty good gains to be made on modern diesels,

Surprised you didnt notice much difference with your scooby.

 

Have a look on here mate to see the gains i dunno which 3.0 tdi u have

https://ecotune-scotland.co.uk/

 

I have been told i can see about 470ish ft/lbs and 300bhp

 

You didn't notice a difference in a 30% power output increase?
Must be something amiss with the in seat dyno(bum)

 

Thats the company thats told me 478 ft/lb and andy f recommended them to me cheers

 

They are fantastic mate do my dyno runs after andy maps,

They took my mates 240bhp seat cupra to 315 with a panel filter and exhaust,
That was APR

They are great with diesels Stan is the man !!

 

so yes I should notice a difference?

 

All I can assume is the mods had given me a substantial increase pre-map, so I was used to it.

 

Yes, unless your the kind of driver who cannot tell when a tyres flat etc.

There's always those kind remember

 

Sadly I'm the kind of driver who knows when there's a fly on my bonnet .. I'm a feeler

 

Strange you didnt notice any change going from 215-280 then,

If anything at least your fuel bill surely lol.

Only one way to find out !

 

Aye, JGM was a legend too and others described it was night and day.


Hoping this will give me a big smile, close to 300BHP isn't bad.

 

This was the graph i got sent to show what i might get

 

Blue lines eco map pink for full power

 

You sure the Blue lines not stock ??

I do not doubt the figures they told my mate between 310-320 he made 315 lol

 

You will definetly notice the extra torque

 

No as my car is 240bhp 369ft/lb stock mate

 

Nice one,

Even on that map you should notice a difference ??

 

My old impreza went from 270/80 to 320 and although i didn't "notice" a difference at first , i realised the power delivery had changed completely. Before mapping the turbo used to kick in and you got the boost sensation. After mapping the turbo spooled sooner and smoother so lost the boost kicking in sensation which made it feel not much quicker. But it definitely was.
On a deisel it will be similar , alot smoother power delivery with sooner spooling of the turbo. You may not "feel" that it's quicker , but pit it against a standard one and you'll "see" the difference in your mirrors

 

 

 

Go for it !!!

 

My BMW has around 500lb of torque but it's no where near on par with my Impreza when it only had 500lbs but then my Impreza had a couple of hundred bhp more .

 

A lot of torque can be added by making it richer, but that at some point will hit smoke limits. If those are increased too much in the pursuit of torque, you will clog your DPF. You can add some boost to try to counteract this.

 

Find me a slow petrol car with only 500ft/lbs.

Unless it weighs 2 ton lol

 

See this is my only issue i dont want to see clouds of smoke/soot behind me

 

Plus i dont really do motorway miles and i have had to force regen my car already in 3 months of ownership and 3000miles

 

Will run better after a map.
Have a look on that ecotunes facebook to see some of their work.

Even ask about the dpf issue see what they think ?
