I just got my racing blue R27 last week and I am busting to get started with the tuning! Got a itg panel filter ordered from K tec and Im bidding on a ktr cat back exhaust from ebay at the min.
My previous car was a 1.6 16v fiesta zetec s so the 197 is a massive jump up in power. But I have a couple of questions which I'd love someone with a bit of experience and more knowledge than myself to answer. (and yes I have read as many threads as I could lol)
1) Do cat-backs without a remap produce flat spots?? Iv noticed the flat spot up 2 about 2,000rpm so I dont want to make this worse! And reading things on here has kind of put me off an exhaust
2) Are re-maps worth the money? Will they fix the flat spots?
3) A few threads have said that 197's as standard do not have the power from the factory they are supposed to! Is this true??
4) Has anyone with a few basic mods broke the 200bp mark yet?
Thanks Chris...and Merry Xmas!!!
