Right then, I have a Rimor camper wich is based on a Ford transit 2.5 TDCI and it goes quite well for the big barge that it is...

Would re-mapping it make it a lot more lively or more economical on fuel at all?
I've not experience with dieselremaps so I'm quite interested to know...

extra 30 bhp
extra 50nm of torque,
and save up to 20% on fuel costs.

you cant lose with a evolution chip remap.

StephTell

Ok but how noticable is 30 BHP and 50 NM on a diesel? That is what I wondering really...cheers for the reply though!

jammerrs

what power does it give as standard, and usualy they will feel more lively even if the increase in power isnt much

Sorry to hijack but are all the newer diesels 'remappable'......i've got an 06 transit connect with the 1.8tdi but on looking at the engine and seeing that they are infact still the endura unit i didn't think it would be????

tdci ? or tddi ?
most newer cars or vans can be remapped.

20% increase is a huge ammount, you would be shocked at how much faster and smoother it would be.
you road test when its done,and if not happy, have it put back to standard.no charge from me.
.then you have 7 days money back to try it for extra mpg.you cant lose.win win.
if it doesnt do all evolution chips say it will,you can have your money back.

2.5 ? is it a smiley shape?

why go to this guy,when stu who runs this site,has a excellent product allready?
i have never heard any complaints about evolutionchips,why risk some random tuner?

furqall

Because its not a random guy I'm on that forum and he has re-mapped tons of members vans with great results.

remember there is more than one tuner and competition is good.

lloydmotorsport

iTrader: (1)

competition is not good,it reduces prices.and profit.

furqall

you would say that I'm just giving good impartial advice unlike you it seems.

And know i don't personally know van-tuner or have anything to do with re-mapping I'm just trying to help out a fellow transit owner.

That is your problem not your customers

tddi, not had it long, it's the 75bhp one so could do with a bit more oomph lol! How much would a 'chip' remap be for my van if it could be done and what would the performance gains be for my van? Are the chips diy fitment?

StephTell

It is in fact a 2.4 TDCI CI! Sorry...

furqall

90ps rwd?

lloydmotorsport

iTrader: (1)

ok , so if you are giving GOOD impartial advise? how much do you know about remapping?
have you had any cars remapped?
any data to show what improvements have been made?

or just your uninformed opinion that hes ok?

you would not belive the ammount of phone calls i get ,where somebody has remapped a car,and caused damage or poor running.

lloydmotorsport

iTrader: (1)

not when there car/van runs like shit.

Rick Astley

There are certain ways to run a business and promote a product, the way you have promoted the product in this thread is actually detrimental to the product in my opinion.

lloydmotorsport

iTrader: (1)

you are entitled to your opinion.

furqall

vantuner is a well respected re-mapper tuner look on the transit forum for your self, i know he's goo Ive many friends who have their vans re-mapped.

i would also say ring round and get quotes from other people but not lloydmotorsport as he has an attitude. Happy now??

A friend of mine had a 2.0 TDCi 115PS Mondeo which had, had an MSD remap. He used to drive it like he stole it and return at least 650 miles to a tank, and regularly seen 700+. As a petrol owner, it made me sick! We used to race and I could keep up in my 1.6 Focus up to about 80, but once his was remapped after first gear he was gone.. And kept on going. We raced all sorts in that car, and it showed up some supposedly fast cars.

We also knew a guy with the 130ps version off a Mondeo forum which had some tuning box, and my friends 115PS version was faster which is proof enough how good it is. If Lloyd is local, then you'd be mad not to use him!

standard bhp is 75. a remap will give you a extra 25.
torque is 175 standard,a remap will give you a extra 45nm.

have a look for your local dealer,and see what price they are doing them for.

TurboShed

Errr... yeah, I guess that's right
