Hi and welcome

The stock answer to the question of more power from a turbo diesel engine is a professional remap. This will release around an extra 40% bhp and lbs/ft for around £250-300, the best £/bhp about.

Make sure, however, that you get one specific for your car and model, not a generic map from the internet. Celtic Tuning, for example, actuallly modify your existing map.

Thanks guys for the welcome

Thanks for the advice I may have to remap it after Xmas the difference between the 90 and 110 is very noticeable but it was a cheap car I could not turn down lol

Im going strip the 110 for spares I kind of hope I could just swap ecu's but I'm not even going to try unless someone says it's possible cos knowing my luck I'd have 2 cars that could not be used lol

Thanks turbonutter,
Think I'm going to have to go for a remap after the festive season as I'm really not liking having less power....
I live about 40 miles south of Edinburgh can anyone recommend a place to have it done??
