As standard it's 167bhp so that would be the maximum as standard.

Welcome btw Wave

What I Actually wanted to know was how much power can they be remapped to as standard?LOL


All cars can go more as they are, I took my other car up by nearly an extra 50bhp and I didnt change a thing and its running perfectly fine. So just wanted to know what the pug is capable of before you have to change bits?

Sorry for the sarcasm LOL

A remap sees almost no gains at all so it's a waste of money. To get extra power you have to go down the cam route or throttle body stuff, all expensive for small gains, between 170 - 190bhp for circa £2k roughly.

Big gains come from supercharging which is about £3-4k, should see 250bhp.

I know, these cars are pretty good as standard though. Good brakes and fresh suspension is the best way to spend money on these cars.

I would still sooner save the £250 and avoid the unimaginable tedium of discussing, or indeed asking for, a remap. Yes

i hate to say it but not a lot is to be gained without serious money.

the best you can expect with a rolling road remap on any standard n/a engine is maybe one or two bhp and a better power and torque curve. for the price its hardly worth it.

i might be being a bit personal here but if the cars for your wife i thought you'd prefer it to be safer rather than faster?

things like better tyres, brakes and the general condition of the vehicle.

then again i was in a rather nasty crash in my beloved gti recently. despite the vehicle being in near perfect condition the w*nkers lorry was unavoidable (he made sure Sad ) car was a right off but im ok Smile

the 306 has one of the highest second hand n-cap saftey ratings out there.

i think what im trying to say is. does it really need to go any faster?

I'm petrified whenever my wife drives the 6 as she likes to get me back Whistle

In standard form she will have more than enough muscle to play with.

My wife used to own an Evo 4 and was running just over 300bhp she's a petrol head speed freak and one of the only women drivers i feel safe with. :-)

Plus working in Germany we got the ring over here and the autobahn so lots of places to speed.Thumbs up

Shouldnt need to spend much anyway cause my wifes Uncle is a mechanic and a 406 2.2 sri engine will fit nicely for 250bhp and is much cheaper than supper charging it. :-)

there's no such thing as cheap where car tuning is concerned not in the longrun anyway, deisels do respond very well to a remap, I have one and it's so enjoyable to drive, pulls effortlessly with all the torque but I do think it feels much faster than it actually is.
Welcome by the way
