My Mondeo again.

When i bought the car i loved the engine, my first big engine car its the 2.2tdci 155ps, however im board of it now, its fairly quick sits nice on the motor way and fits my 2 big dogs in the back.

My question is this do you think it would be much better if a remap the ECU http://www.mybluefin.co.uk/apps.php a fair wack of cash but im lead to beleive its quite good due to the £ to bhp increase, also what else could i do to free up the power, its not even got 1000miles yet so not took it over 4k rpm but i shouldnt need to as the power is so low.

come on u diesle heads help me out in my grandad car.
 
there are 2 options available regarding a power upgrade, there's the bluefin, which cost upwards of £400 (one went on ebay last week for £122 though :(), you're looking at about 20bhp increase, the alternative i've found is a tuning box, i've seen the 'dragon' box, that's available on ebay from £170, my mate bought one for his 115bhp focus, he went on rolling road and was showing 145bhp and iirc 300 torque. that's my choice for performance upgrade / price. Be aware however, that either of these upgrades will void your warranty if you get found out, but also, both options are reversible too. Make what you will of that.

Other options to increase power would be a K&N filter and a new exhaust system.
