Lowering and remapping a HDi 90...?

[WillM]

First post

I've had my 90 now 3 months after trading in a slightly faster 116i Msport with a view to getting a motorbike for my kicks rather than a faster car. Circumstances have changed and I'm just running a car which isn't fun enough. So I'm thinking of remapping and lowering her. The figures from SP tunings remap look great and whilst the handling atm isn't to bad I'd still like to improve it.


Will these two mods transform the car into something that will keep me happy for a couple of years?


Cheers.
Will.

Welcome to the club

Zack is the man to speak to. I'm pretty sure he originally had a HDi 90, it's been remapped by Jamie at SP Tuning and lowered too.

Hi and welcome, excuse Chris_Blue, unless you have a THP he doesn't think it's possible to be happy !

Deffo search for ZACK's build thread, he's done loads to his HDi 90, I think Jimbob has one of those as well so look for his posts. Personally speaking the extra BHP from a Jamie remap and coilovers or similar should keep most folks more than happy ! Just stay away from RickardsDS3 Veyron thread

Hi I have a 115 weasel burner and I am quite surprised on the torque figures and the way the car performs and with a remap the thing will fly ................remember its not really the HP its the torque that matters ...............oh and Chris sits in a glass house most of the time the rest he is on here

Weasel ......oil burner ......tug boat .......or what ever the torque figures are and a great quote is : "Horsepower" is how fast you hit the fence. "Torque" is how far you take the fence with you...................................Simples :cool:

Hi Will,

If you want happiness with your 90 I definitely recommend the following...

Coilovers
SP Tuning Remap
DPF Delete
Staright through exhaust

I can see your gleaming smile already !

Even though we have similar hp and I have a shed load more torque than you ? xD

And what does Torque do ??? gives you instant grunt out of corners while the asthmatic 16v plods on:cool:

I'd bet on Zack beating Chris any day.
