Custom remap and Cam options for ST170?
Hello.
After speaking to the guys at Superchips about Bluefin for my car and then being told I'd get less than the estimated 8 BHP increase for these cars due to mine having aftermarket Blueflame exhaust and K&N Panel filter, I've decided to (eventually) go for a custom ECU remap.
A few quick searches has brought BBR/Morego and Rapid Remap to my attention, among MANY others. BBR/Moregos ST170 Starchip/Remap estimates 12 - 14 BHP and 16 - 18 Newton Metres of torque increase (which seems good for £345) while Rapid Remap don't offer an ST170 remap at the moment.
In the latest issue of Fast Ford there's an advert for a Piper Cams kit for the ST170 for about £250 (or there abouts) with a vernier pulley (about £150ish) which also boasts about a 15BHP increase. Now, I'm a total Newb with all this stuff and won't claim to even know what they do, but the gains/improvements they claim to offer sounds ok to me for the relatively low price (not including fitting, which I have no idea about for £ value). Would something like these be worth it aswell as a custom remap?
Just wondered if anyone had any experience with BBR/Morego or if could recommend anyone else I could consider?
Thanks
