New Turbo, Do I Need A Re-map?
 
Hi, Just a quick question.

I've recently had my FRS T25 turbo rebuilt to a higher spec i.e 360 trust bearing and all the rest that goes with up rating a turbo.

My question is, do i need to get my car re-mapped? I've got a GGR air box, and i've got a bluefin which i haven't fitted yet. Would the blue fin do the trick for these minor mods?

Thanks in advance guys.

hello mate who done the work on your turbo was it essex turbos as ive just had mine done to the same spec and im running bluefin it seems to be fine apart from a little bit of smoke but ive been told thats no probs its just me worrying to much :D

Generic bluefin map should be fine with those mods bud - i'm going for an aftermarket ecu on my FRS but only because the mods will be pushing 330bhp+ with cams, gt28, new head etc so a live map is worthwhile with those mods to make the most of the car & the mods - light mods are best suited to the generic bluefin or dreamscience maps :DD:

Rob @ SCC is very persuasive regarding mods lol Plus i should never have read the article in Performance Ford with Paul 'Belly' Hamlings car as that was when the decision was made to go a bit madder with mods - only downside is more £££ :cry: :cry:

Thanks for your replies fellas.

I'll get it taxed and back on the road then :DD:

if they have made it into a hybrid it will spool up alot quicker and i believe the normal bluefin map will not be able to keep up with it and car will run lean. You may just be able to use the PD330 buefin map with the turbo but without knowing exactly what has been done to the turbo it may but nothing similar to the TD conversion.
