Engine Re-map

[PaulWorthing]

Before my current car I had a MINI One Convertible and, through the use of re-map I was able to increase the bhp from 90 to approx 130 - a useful increase I am sure you would agree. :D

My current car is a Smart ForTwo and the re-map for that takes it from 61bhp to 85bhp - a not insignificant increase when you consider how light the car is. :)

My question is, is there a simialr thing available for the Aygo/C1/107 as the only thing that is putting me off getting an Aygo is the fact that there is no genuine Warm/Hot hatch option especially when I want to make it look 'faster' with the TTE exhaust, Toyota roof spoiler etc.

Do not forget that in most cases you do loose all factory guarantees...

Yes I am aware that every manufacturer would invalidate the warranty if the found one of those re-maps on their cars however, once the warranty has expired I was trying to see what was available in an 'easy to remove' re-map so that when it came time to see it on, or for any other unforseen reason, it could be removed asap without leaving a trace of it within the engine management system as was possible on the MINI

Angel Tuning do one and Superchips are currently developing theirs (I emailed them last week). Performance increases aren't huge, about 8bhp can't remember the torque increase. But should make a difference considering the size of it :)

The warranty is only affected if it's detected and then only if it's something that the remap would affect :)

Mini and smart have turbos/superchargers. Remaps alter the boost figures hence the high figures available (we had our second smart remapped and it made a huge difference in the driving experience). Aygo is normally aspirated so little chance of major increases.

Only the Mini Cooper S has the supercharger (turbocharger now). The rest are normally aspirated. I was wondering how the increase was so big but the One is a detuned version of the Cooper (which has about 115hp I think) so 130 is achievable from the engine without trouble. Yes usually you won't get such a massive increase!
