Thinking about remapping the car and Viezu is quoting +34 BHP and +50 Nm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mavroz Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 Why not get a 140ps model from the start? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lakeman_pro Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 215 Nm. Gearbox is a Getrag 6MTT215. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So not really any more capable than the old 5 speed at handling increased torque from a remap? I have read that a standard 125 puts out around 155lb/ft (210Nm) on overboost so not much safety margin. Does the 140 have the same box? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iantt Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 140 has same box but with final drive ratio slighty different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have read that a standard 125 puts out around 155lb/ft (210Nm) on overboost so not much safety margin. Does the 140 have the same box? Most of the times the manufacturer builds these gearboxes with a safety margin of about 1.3. So technically it can hande 1.3 x 215 = 279,5 Nm. But there is a improvement, because the older 5 speeds were rated at 170 Nm. This gearbox is much better than the old ones. And if you don't rev it like a maniac in 1st and 2nd gear i don't seem to be worried. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eric Bloodaxe Posted April 3, 2018 Share Posted April 3, 2018 When/if Mountune come out with a power upgrade for the Mk 8, it'll be interesting to see how far they go while retaining the Ford warranty. I believe they're only offering induction hoses at the mo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
