Ryan_Tango Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 Might sound a bit daft but is anywhere able to do an upgrade for a ford focus 1.6 2012 115ps. Looking for more grunt or should a remap be adequate enough? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MONDEO TXS 2.2 Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 Get a proper remap - most if not all tuning boxes will over fuel your engine - resulting in dpf issues sooner rather than later 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was looking at Bluefin but the gains don't look too impressive I'd only gain 21BHP and 44nm torque Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MONDEO TXS 2.2 Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 Having had Bluefin on my old Mondeo ST TDCi & currently on my TXS I'd recommend it - but if it doesn't add enough for you then maybe google '' Focus 1.6 remap '' & see what comes up ? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MONDEO TXS 2.2 Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 20% increase in bhp is considered safe & within the design tolerances so + 21bhp in your case seems reasonable & torque is more important than bhp on a diesel 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MONDEO TXS 2.2 Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 Do any '' mods '' that could affect performance before the remap 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GingerFlame Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 And let your insurance know earlier rather than later... :) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan_Tango Posted August 21, 2015 Author Share Posted August 21, 2015 And let your insurance know earlier rather than later... :) I'm giving them a ring today to see if they will let me, if they don't I'll have to find another company last time they winged about me putting a k&n induction kit on my fiesta mk7 told me to remove it or they will void my cover, hopefully they will be okay with a remap if not time to look around. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
