you can, but remaps only have really good results on turbo'd cars, spesh the 1.8T VAG lump.
You'll probably get around 15-20 brake, depending where you take it. £350- £450

nah about 5 and n/a cars will not respond to chip/remaps unless they have mods to take advantage of it such as higher duration cams
