improved performance!!

just wanted to thank all of you who have recommended red dot racing. after being a little disapointed with the performance and fuel economy of my brera 2.4 MJD I decided to take my car for an engine remap after reading a few posts recommending red dot..... what a difference! not only has power increased by 45bhp that's like finding an extra fiat panda under the bonnet! power is smooth and the car actually feels a lot ligther. and even better still on the journey down (103miles) I averaged 33mpg driving fairly sensibly ... on the way back 44mpg! and that's with a few spirited moments. ...it will pay for itself in no time in fuel savings alone! thanks guys,,,,,,

Oooh, sounds great! How much did that set you back?

Ding dong!!! If you were a member of our club you would of got a further 10% off what you paid!!

Welcome to the forum

Some remaps on some cars affect the on board computer mpg figure. You should check fuel fill-up against mileage to the next fill-up.
It would be interesting to see if it agrees. Some remaps have left the computer mpg over by 10%. Please try to inform us.

A lot will do that. It's a side effect..

My one in my 156 was always totally inaccurate! It actually got better after the remap!

Good to hear! I also booked myself for a remap soon. Cannot wait...

I've also just had my Brera 2.4jtdm remapped at red dot and it has improved acceleration quite dramatically.. I will see if the indicated mpg matches the actual fill up figure but that apart I heartily recommend the remap....

It cost around £240 and took an hour or two..

Just came back and what a difference... I am running around 186 and the torque curve is much steeper (+64). Car feels very different. Cannot wait for a non-rainy day... All I need now is a new clutch...
