Possible power upgrade

Post by Regan77 »

Hi, I’ve just bought a 2013 1.6d maxi caddy that has had a wheelchair access conversion. As you can imagine with all this extra weight they car is a bit sluggish. Has anyone had a chip or something else done to up the power and if so what was the difference. Sorry I’m a complete mechanical noob with cars.

Regards Steve

Get a remap on it. And you’ll see the difference

@regan77

A remap will defiantly make a difference if your just after a bit more power.

Where are you located? I’m sure someone can recommend places to go and get a decent remap local to you .

I would say start with remap and if that is not enaugh go for DPF delete and EGR delete and then remap agin. After that is done it starts to be exspensive

Dyno remaps in Middlesbrough?

I’m northeast too, I haven’t personally used them but know a few people who have and they have all been positive reviews.
