170 DPF Questions.

[s10mph]

I am thinking of buying a Leon in the near future and fancy the 170DPF for its extra power, a couple off Q's .
1. Can the DPF be disconnected/bypassed.
2. Any remaps available yet.
Thanks Bernie

1) There is a exhaust in development that will do this, however it will not be road legal, (i assume as the emissions you will pump out will be higher than allowed / tax paid or something equally stupid, rather than noise or something
2) Yes remaps are available, use the search - check out the performance tuners section of this web-site etc.

Hey Bernie

Yes, re-maps are available for your engine.

We have been tuning the 170PD longer than any company I know of, with power increased to 210bhp.

We are offering members this map for £295 all in. If you fancy a chat, feel free to call us on 01902 324584

Thanks for the answers. As for the tax thing I don't think Testers check your emmissions against the manufacturers original spec. rather a very broad tolerance of emmisions are excepted, well not yet anyway. Plenty off people have de-cated their engines in the past and have not been re-classified. The DPF thing is not reqd. till 2010 when the euro v standard is due, unless I've got it wrong. Bernie.

Having looked on your site p-torque
it says an increase of only 25bhp which will take it to 195 bhp,not the figures you have quoted above unless i have got it wrong

cheers

Whilst the FR TDI on the book is 170bhp.. many are coming out 180bhp+ on the rolling road..

Yes, as Michael has mentioned above, we always advertise true gains.

The 170PD usually pulls slightly higher figures.

Probably be doing ourselves a favour if I changed it to 35bhp

Sorry for jumping in on the thread.
But what would an increase in bhp from 180ish to 205bhp ish translate to in terms on 0-60 time?

2 customers were dyno'd at 210bhp after the p-torque map. Not sure what the 0-60 is improved to, but it would be noticeably improved, mainly due to the torque increase.

It also irons out the flat spot that the 170PD engine suffers from at low revs

 

[Lezman]

Thanks for the speedy reponse

Yeah as Michael says, my FR TDI made 183bhp as standard on ECC Rollers and they are said to be the most accurate in Northern Ireland.

It made 198bhp on DS Autos rollers but the truth of these is questionable

Thanx p-torque i didn't realise the fr tdi was putting out more bhp from standard so that explains it then. Might have to get mine done and seems a reasonable price.

Hi!

As you'll see in our forum section, we are now offering the P-Torque 170PD re-map for £295 all in to SCN members.

You'll test drive the new power on the day to ensure you are happy

sorry to hijack the thread but does the remap effect mpg and is it detectable?

Thanks

MPG is improved slightly. The re-map is carried out via the cars OBD port, making i extremely hard to detect.

In 5 years, we have not had any customers with warranty issues, and thats allowing for 80% of the vehicles we tune to still be in warranty.

If someone knew what they were looking for, then of course the changed software could be identified, but as I mention above, its never happened

 

[redwell]

thanks p-torque. I would be interested in more drivability rather than BHP and speed if I buy an FR - a nice flat torque curve

I'll keep you in mind
