Everything I've ever read about re-mapping these engines contradicts the above.________________________________________ cress87 wrote: I'm stopped for speeding on a daily basis but now the police are aware that I live for the 306 they dare not interfere, just sit in their cars quaking as I drive past. |

As far as I'm aware a remap is not needed/a waste unless you put cams in or throttle bodies / charger.________________________________________ cress87 wrote: I'm stopped for speeding on a daily basis but now the police are aware that I live for the 306 they dare not interfere, just sit in their cars quaking as I drive past. |

Patience, it hasn't been long..... someone who knows what they're talking about will come along soon and explain why it's a waste of money.________________________________________ cress87 wrote: I'm stopped for speeding on a daily basis but now the police are aware that I live for the 306 they dare not interfere, just sit in their cars quaking as I drive past. |

 well if you have an independent RR nearby you can use and can guarantee the 183 figure or your money back, go for it.... ________________________________________ need a part number? get on here - http://public.servicebox.peugeot.comBring on the Trumpets. |

Sounds like a waste of time & fuel to me, but could be worth a laugh seeing someone else go through the ordeal  ________________________________________ cress87 wrote: I'm stopped for speeding on a daily basis but now the police are aware that I live for the 306 they dare not interfere, just sit in their cars quaking as I drive past. |

That remap alone will not give you the figures quoted.  You will need cams to get that kind of increase along with the remap. To get up to 200bhp+ you are looking at throttle bodies AND cams. That is all. ________________________________________ "Supercharged - 454.1bhp/317.5lb/ft"Peugeot 306 GTi-6 2000 (X), Moonstone  |

'6 marce' means 6 speed in Spanish.So, what you think is the name of a remap is in fact just the name of the car. The 163 comes from converting kW to CV/PS, which is the metric equivalent of BHP. The GTi-6 was sold on the contient as 120 kW, which converts to 163 PS. ________________________________________ Rich |
