A Ford Focus came into our garage in Pool, Cornwall seeking a boost in power. We recommended the 1.6TDCI, has our Southwest Performance Stage 1 remap, developed by Avon Tuning.

We are proud to be Avon Tuning’s only representatives in the Southwest.

Ford Focus Remap

Before we could begin, we needed to check the cars condition. We do this to see that to our knowledge, there are no faults which could compromise the cars condition in the future due to our mapping.

Once we were happy with the health of the car, we applied the reliable Avon Tuning stage 1 remap through our top of the range equipment. We are continuously updating our equipment to stay ahead and ensure we are available to everyone.

Power Jim but not as we know it

After the remapping was complete we took the Ford Focus remap for a test drive. The initial readings should have been 109 horse power or hp and 240 torque or nm. As they car had high mileage we found that it actually made 98 hp and 215nm. During the second drive it was revealed the stage 1 remap had increased the hp to 133 (136 expected) and the nm to 300 (310 expected).

These results mean that the car will now run more efficiently, and have more power, the slightly less than expected figures were no doubt down to the 172,000 miles the car had covered, still very respectable and the customer did not wish to have any work done on the inlet system to clean away carbon.

Walnut Blasting?

We did offer to carry out a walnut blasting of the inlet system and run the engine through a cleaning process but the owner decided just to do the oil change and flush himself.

A local customer from Redruth, Cornwall headed in to us today seeking a stage 1 remap for their BMW 320d. The owners wanted faster reacting acceleration and a better all round economical performance.

Avon Tuning’s stage 1 remap can give the customer both of these needs.

BMW Remap

When we remap a vehicle we need to look over the inside and outside, before starting any remapping. By fixing any issues prior to the remap we can comfortably remap your car without any issues appearing later on, due to the increase in power. We also check the age and mileage of the car to check it can handle the boost.

Now we are happy with the cars condition we will carry out the BMW Remap as a stage 1. This stage 1 remap is created by the reputable Avon Tuning and applied by us at Southwest Performance. Our equipment is the highest standard it can be, making sure to update frequently in order to stay ahead of the game.

Soon after the remap was completed we took the BMW Remap for a test drive and watched the numbers increase. The original data was 184 hp or horse power and 380 nm or torque. The BMW Remap has caused the numbers to increase to 210 hp and 420 nm, a significant increase which will be felt on the road and in the bank.

We had a VW Transporter remap T5.1 booked in today, taking advantage of our special Facebook offer of £100 for a VW Transporter remap. The customer come in locally from Redruth with his work van. When dropping off the vehicle the owner also asked to have the speed limiter removed.

The owner wanted to add some power to the van without applying too much strain upon the gears and the engine. As the van was a work van he only wanted a little boost when getting around.

VW Transporter Remap

To begin with we carried out a health check on the van to check everything was in order, any faults which are not addressed prior to mapping, could cause an issue down the line. We then used our latest equipment to apply Avon Tuning’s trusted stage 1 remapping software to the van.

Taking the van for a test drive we measured the improvements of the VW transporter remap, stage 1. The van was originally reading 84 horse power or hp and  torque or 220 nm, however, with our stage 1 remap it has increased to 175 bhp and 400 nm. The change in nm will have a noticeable increase upon the owners wallet as the economical efficiency will be significantly better.
