joshjonees Posted July 23, 2020 Share Posted July 23, 2020 Has anyone remapped this engine? I've had a quote of £220 to take it to 147bhp and apparently 10% better on fuel. I've never had a map done and I'm worried about warranty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gideon Posted July 25, 2020 Share Posted July 25, 2020 Never done that to any of my cars. BUT; More power AND better fuel consumption ?? Reread your high [middle] school Physics and Chemistry books ! Power comes from burning fuel => you can have more power OR better fuel consumption - NOT BOTH. Marquizzo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhotoAl Posted July 26, 2020 Share Posted July 26, 2020 I would expect a remapping would not be good for the warranty. In the event anything went wrong Ford would first point to the remapping. In addition remapping may run afoul of law and regulations particularly emissions. In the motorcycle world remapping is very common and can yield very good results if done correctly. IMO modern engines run very lean and have rough spots and uneven response to throttle input. Remapping can fix a lot of these things and I would not be surprised to see it increase both power and fuel economy, if you use the new power frequently in may negate any efficiency improvements because as Gideon points out the physics is physics.
