5-10bhp maybe...for 300quid or so.

Cheaper to throw out your back seats/bumper bars/mats/spare and push her under a tonne.

green ecu

Post by V480TI » Thu Jan 29, 2009 8:35 pm

Cliffey, offcourse you can remap the ecu of a n/a car, youre right.
But the secret of chiptuning is that only turbo's (petrol or diesel)
will gain the hp's you want to gain.

Or a modern v8 or so from Ferrari, Aston, or so will gain that amount and now I am talking of n/a cars.

Your 480 will gain max max max 10 hp if you change exhaust and airfilter too.

Do the search and find out.
