GingerFlame Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 For the price I'd do it. It's reasonably safe & simple. The diesel engines found in fiestas 2002-2008 respond to mapping extremely well without needing to be overstressed! Your main restriction is actually the turbo not the engine! www.yorkshiredetailing.co.uk - approved resellers of the Highest quality detailing & Valeting supplies 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GingerFlame Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 Did you clean both the mating surfaces before replacing the seal? Did you tighten everything up correctly? www.yorkshiredetailing.co.uk - approved resellers of the Highest quality detailing & Valeting supplies Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plug into the OBD Port, download the standard map, upload the remap, unplug, done.

TomsFocus Posted May 25, 2016 Share Posted May 25, 2016 £359 for a Bluefin? I'd just go with a normal remap tbh. Think I paid £150 for mine. Which is about 3 times more than I've ever paid for an EDC15 remap, stupid EDC16 ECU. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TomsFocus Posted May 25, 2016 Share Posted May 25, 2016 I have used his maps on Peugeots in the past so had no problem using him for the Focus. Mine is a 110 model, so up to about 140bhp now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TomsFocus Posted May 25, 2016 Share Posted May 25, 2016 Ok, so you can buy the map online and it'll get emailed to you. You then use MPPS or similar to plug between your laptop USB port and the cars OBD port. Then using the MPPS software copy your original map and store it safely, and upload the new map. Then unplug the laptop and it's done. It doesn't get left plugged in. Steve was recommending not to use MPPS on my car last year and to use BDM100 instead. I posted my ECU to him to flash as I didn't fancy risking it myself but if he told you to use MPPS then fair enough. I have used MPPS and Galletto software for flashing remaps on other cars without issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
