Yes it will effect the mpg by giving you an extra 5-7 mpg because with the extra torque the car will perform better in higher gears. There is a hill were I live and before the re map I would struggle in 3 rd now I fly up in 4th. Its made a huge different.

Well its not about how many, but the quality of the post.
Some just post for posting's sake, with total jibberish.


We all know who they are!

To be serious, those posts are just as important as it makes the site what it is.
There is a comradeship on this site, between many, we have all been offered help in one form or another from people we have never met.

There is also the banter, the jokes, and lots of good advice.

best regards,

Rustic

Maybe there should be free subs ie honorary members, for members who have been loyal to this site after so many years, especially if they make a valid contribution to this site.Or have say posted more than 3760 posts... ( checks own post rate)...

After all, ALL the contributions from each member on this site is available for all members to view for future reference. Oh no, Briggies jokes are there for ever...

Some members need to think about that too..


best regards,

Rustic

Well simple answer no.

The Td doesn't have a re-mappable ECU, as said by other members.

Some have increased the fuelling on the pump and the boost pressure from the turbo, BUT if done wrong can damage the engine.
Others have fitted K&N filters to help it breath more easily, or put nitrox type additives with the fuel but most of these only give a marginal increase in performance.

These standard non intercooler engines are built to last, 300 k miles without a spanner to them is achievable.
Regular oil and filter changes is the important thing to do.
