Are these any good when remapped?
I like the look of them when they're tastefully modded, just not sure about the size-factor and performance

the 1.4 tdi gains 25-30 bhp and 50 ft/lb when remapped.
standard figures are 73bhp and 144 ft/lb

Did you have a remapped one? How was it on fuel and how did it cope with urban and motorway/ quicker driving styles?

Going on my Corsa derv, motorway runs were a breeze. This, i'd guess, would be even better.

M 1.9TDi will sit any anything up to 120 on the Motorway quite happily, I can see a 1.4 doing anything up to 95ish alright?

they were 2 years ago when i bought mine but its now 15 ppl more a petrol that can achieve 40 mpg is costing around 13.5p per mile in fuel and a diesel doing 50 is around 12 p per mile so if you drive 12000 miles in a year your looking at saving £180 hardly worth the extra cost of the car!

My 2.0DTi Astra seems to struggle when it gets to 105ish? You really have to give it some to get it go faster, I think it just prefers to sit at 90
