Depends on your budget James, but a tuning box & a panel filter would be my option.

A remap would be probably a bit better than a tuning box but more expensive.

I have a tuning box for sale on Ebay there is a link in the forsale section.

Very nice graph but not very relevant to the post. We have a Dragon tuning box in the Scenic, its excellent

my budget it around 400 ish or abit more, depends what gains it give me!

also does anyone know where i could get a set off 225 bumpers?

A tuning box should give you about 20/25% increase, i have a DTUK which i am very happy with i think they are around £200, the panel filters are about £40-£50 so you would have pleanty of change from a £400 budget.

thanks will give them a ring,

i was thinking of putting ebc green stuff pads in my car, as it due pads,
has anyone had them on a megane before? had them on my last car, civic type r, very effected a found,

£400. Give RS Tuning a ring, and get it remaped the 120bhp models have reached around 160bhp, that costs £395 i think, much better than a box. would highly recomend the itg pannel filter also, not sure it the 130 airbox is the same as the 120, im sure someone will be able to tell you tho.

[james_k]

thanks,
where is rs tuning based? and where car a get a number from?
where do the boxes fit on the maganes?
where is the best places to get the pannel filters from? and price?

[potdci]

Box's are a doddle on the 120 i presume it's the same on the 130? mine just plugs into the common rail it is obvious when you take the cover off the engine.

[james_k]

how do they work? just up the pressure in the rail?

i paid 300 for a remap and have just spent another £40 on a BMC panel filter.

there based in leeds.

think paul from there develops the remaps for the megs so best place to go really.

if your a member of certain meg owners clubs, you can get discount from ktec on the itg think there around £40
