diesel remaps

[ShaanK]

Right - the E46 320cd is asking for a remap and who am I to say no.

I've had a quick looky online and there are TONS available but I'm at a loss as to what to go for.

I'll be honest I'm not looking for loads of power - extra torque and better mpg is what I am after and there are plenty that seem to offer this. But do they REALLY offer better mpg? Tuning boxes / remaps etc.... not bothered which I don't think?? Am I?? lol

Any advice / links etc appreciated.

Justin is looking into getting me some info for a local lad up here that can do them but just want some extra info for comparison's sake :p (Cheers Justin!! :) )

I had mine done by Simon at E-maps. I believe a number of other members have as well.

You could always approach Roy @ CA also :)

Increase in torque sounds fantastic! Give me a call mate to discuss price ;)

Also is MPG def going to be better with normal driving via these? Is it a remap or a tuning box of sorts?

Sorry for all the Q's! First diesel car lol :p

id be wary in regards to the e46 320 derv engines as iirc the earlia engines mentioned above also (the 136bhp engines) are meant to have a common fault with the turbos i.e. blowing up afaik.. so id be wary if i was remapping the earlia engine but if it is the latter engine then go for it bud :D also in regards to remaps don't know much about beemer remaps but as i remember from a meet that i went to with my brother e-maps is meant to be quite well known..

[Satnam]

If you want the best out of remaps dont go for generic software go for custom mapping as the map is tailored to your car..

+1 for Simon @ Emaps, I had my 330d done and boy did it make a difference, had to replace the clutch within 5k miles....lol:D

Dan

[330Purplefrenzy]

Simon + another 1, had my 330CI done....Silky Smooth and improve mpg

I used AmD for the 330d, but have used Simon before and also QST and Jabbasport. As long as you don't got for a tuning box (because they are crap), then gains will be very similar.
