225 Remap Removal

  1. Hi All,
    Forgive me if i have posted in the wrong place sorry.

    I took the megane 225 in for a remap and middle box chop on the weekend only to be told it was already remapped.

    The problem i face is i was looking at upgrading the injectors which would need mapping. i was told this could only be done by the garage who mapped it in the first place.

    Does anyone know of anyway to get the remap removed so i can get it mapped again with the new injectors?

    Thanks
     
  2. I don't see why they can't map on top of the existing file but... I do believe the 'tuning boxes' can revert to standard maps iirc.
     
  3. Do you know who's original map is on there? Rs tuning will be able to sort you out either way.
     
  4. I take it we're not talking about a reputable tuner here?
     
  5. If it's not, as said above a competent tuning company such as RStuning will definitely be able to sort it, and any tuner worth his weight can custom map a car....
     
  6. I Dont know who did it as i purchased the car 6 months ago and not made aware of a remap, I took it in for a custom remap at my local garage who send the file off to another company to remap. i shall find out which company. Just thought i was stuck for a moment there as there is no chance i will find the owner before me !! LOL

    Have any of you guys upgraded your injectors to 630cc ?
     
  7. It's not a custom remap if they have to send the file off.
     
  8. Most people change the injectors at stage 2, as they can only flow 280bhp max...
     
  9. I Shall have to find out which company it is. Ahh i see, i haven't a clue what the meg is running at at the moment. probably worth getting it on a dyno. How much would i be looking at for a dyno run ?

    Cheers all much appreciated
     
  10. Most charge around £60 with a printout, however there are a lot of places that do it cheaper £40-50..where abouts are you from? Stage 1 should be between 245-260bhp at 1.2bar ...
     
  11. I wouldn't have thought a local garage would be able to map a set of 630 injectors in as its not that straightforward. Like others have said I would take a trip to Rs tuning in Leeds. They will also be able to remove your previous map.
    Lee.
     
  12. Yea that's what I thought. Although the garage said they could It probably won't be done properly. I'm from Worcester. West midlands .

    Cheers
     
  13. Your right it won't be done properly, there's a reason we all travel hundreds of miles to go see Paul at rs tuning lol
     
  14. I suspect they would have scaling issues with the injectors meaning you run out of fuel on 1/4 tank still showing..
     
  15. What does scaling meaning?
     
  16. Bigger injectors mean flow more fuel by a scale factor of x

    therefore your tamk will empty faster by a factor of y.

    assuming the car isnt told about the bigger injectors and the fuel tank voodoo scaled correctly you will be trundling round thinking I have 1/4 tank then the car conks out with no fuel ..
     
  17. Do these cars not just have a normal float gauge in the tank then? :confused:
     

  18. Partly.

    I cant recall if its a float for 1st 1/4 and then calculated , or the other way around
