Mike77 Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 You can only go so far on standard internals before things start bending in ways they shouldn't lol. But with the mods you already have, a remap will be the best way forward, and cheaper than a turbo. A good map could show you between 30 and 40 bhp... Which is enough for most.

Mike77 Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 Not sure mate to be honest, you'd just need to do some research and see what ppl have done. If you were set on changing the turbo, then you are best to leave the remap until after. Will get the most benefit that way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
focus zetec s black Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 you prob need to look into a bigger intercooler tbh if you winding the boost up in a bigger turbo...as above bluefin remap seems popular i sold my previos mk2 but just bought another 1.8tdci def fancy a bluefin and a greenstuff panal filter for now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
