Gettin DAB power out of my 1.4 16 valve

[Poverty]

Anyone know how to get the extra 15 hp out of my 1.4? I would guess the only difference between the two are the throttle bodies?

Can anyone confirm this, or has the detailed engine specifications of both cars?

Regards

compression ratio & cams too I think

Don't Revo do a remap for the 1.4?

They do indeed! Never would have thought that seeing as its a small engined NA car. 8% to 10% power increase they claim which is minimal, and doubtful in my mind. However it wouldnt hurt to try the free trial.

Good response so far anyone else got any more info

wont be a good power increase on the remap for the 1.4 but it would make it more responsive and nicer to drive aparantly probably onlylikely to gain 5bhp with a remap!


cams would be your best chance - ever thought of getting a more powerful car ????

Different air filter, not much difference but surely will help. Try a Green Air filter

18yrs 0 ncb, high risk post code = 4 grand premium from most insurers(going by confused.com), 3 grand from tesco.

Im gonna have to wait a while till my premiums go down till I can upgrade to something with a turbo.

Not till saturday that I take delivery of my 1.4 .Just intrigued really as to how the DAB makes its extra power TBH.

Damn Id love that price on my 1.4 let alone a cupra. My problem is that my mum had two seperate accidents in quick sucession about two years ago, so she doesnt help me that much.
