2.0i remap - how much difference to the acceleration?

Post by tigor » Mon Sep 05, 2022 7:40 pm

I’m late to this party.

I had my 20i remapped around a month ago to the 28i map. As you say you can look at the figures all day, but to drive it, mine’s now a completely different beast.

Had mine remapped at Evolve Automotive. Couldn't believe the difference. 0-60 is probably a tad over 5 seconds. 50-70mph performance is night and day.

Blimey. I would ask for a refund TBH. Mine's much quicker than that :wink: :P
All good things come to those who wait. I'm really impatient which explains a lot.

F31 320i. Good car.
E89 20i Now fully dried
Z3 'free litre'. Project and a half. Complicated!
Mazda3 sold
Tatty old R56 Mini Cooper. Money pit!

Some great info here, and good to read people's experiences. I checked with my insurers (LV) and they want an additional £23 for the year! Bargain!

I will look for someone with a rolling road and consider the ideal tuning requirements posters have advised.

Has anyone experienced any issues with a remap, in particular with a 2014 2.0i?
