Abdul Posted April 4, 2013 Report Share Posted April 4, 2013 (edited) yeah i did think that another turbo would be the one then like you say it gets more intense engine work and more mapping ect Heres the graph . tbh im not happy with the map and i dont believe its anywhere near the figures stated as i previously had a vw bora pd130 had abit of work done at a company called R-tech and that was 195bhp 275lbs and felt alot quicker than the 320d AMD's figures are bs mate. R tec on the other hand are solid imo. Plus VAG PD's generally pull like motherf*ckers lol. With regards to the peaky nature of the PD engines, a straight pipe exhaust (ie no boxes at all) usually solves that but you do lose a few torques.

mit Posted April 4, 2013 Report Share Posted April 4, 2013 That was on AMD essex rolling road and they are notorious for wrong figures so i dont expect it to be those figures at all ! I want to get the remapped again by R-tec in leicester , i had my Bora tuned there and the power felt awesome as it was done by live mapping and AMD just flashed a map onto the car to give god figures but the power isn't very smooth or consistent in all gears ect , more than likely just wacked the boost right up lol im on a diet as it goes ! but tbh now ive put the install in ect it has made a difference but i cant go without music or my leathers , and its not really the speed i want out of it its just god figures i want and the power to be smoother and hold out longer as gears 1 and 2 are just short burst's of power really aggressive then the rest of the gears slowly start spooling up , 4th tends to hold out and stay strongest up to about 100mph+ but something still doesn't seem right to me Sounds like you want a flat torque curve rather than the power you've gone for.

dave65 Posted April 5, 2013 Report Share Posted April 5, 2013 i also had a 130pd remapped vw which felt way faster than the 320d ,the vw had a crazy torque spike at around 2000 rpm so much so it fried my clutch after about a week of having it mapped, i'm hoping that when i get the bmw mapped it will feel a bit more lively. dooge 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dooge Posted May 3, 2013 Report Share Posted May 3, 2013 Did you get anywhere with this Danny? I drove my old VW the other day and it felt very responsive over my BMW, but again I reckon its the nature of the engines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
