Tuning small turbo esc cos
Have just purchased a small turbo escort cosworth that I am well pleased with. Problem is it lacks power. I will be changin the management over in the months to come but for now whilst I am savin need to up it. Have purchased a chip for it but havent plugged it in yet. Before I do can anyone tell me if a dash 31 is needed. Also what boost pressure will I be able to run? Will an uprated pump be necessary staright away aswell as a fuel regulator. And finally will the cats need to be removed for better power it already has a magnex cat back on it. If so does anyone know if magnex do a downpipe and centre for the cat back system?

some people recommend a -31 with there chips depends which one you have got fuel pump and reg are not essential but i would do the pump to be on the safe side.
mine was running about 16psi with the stg1 chip filter and graham goode sports cat exhaust and was 278bhp.

i had a super chip and the standard actuator was fine with it.
it will be a major improvement from standard.

Look for Cossymad's post on this sub-forum. He posted his 300bhp setup describtion and probably can sort you one. Superchips are know to give problems :-/

You have Marelli converted to run small turbo coilpacks? That is very nice option together with good turbo and small turbo intake can make some nice power I bet
