Other mods before map
« on: 14 November 2011, 20:44 »
What options are there before getting a remap (maybe a custom remap) that would increase the benefit of the map? ie exhaust/induction kit etc.

My 150PD has smoothed airbox (is there a better alternative) with a PiperX filter and an EGR delete. I don't really know of many other engine mods that can be done TBH  :huh: But I'm wondering how much I'd benefit from getting either

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/280648391058?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649#ht_500wt_1054 - Decat right?

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/290630415268?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649 - NON decat right?

Also silicon hoses - you can get complete silicone hose sets, would this improve a map yay or nay?

Any other mods engine or not that would aid a map before I get one?

Cheers
