Re: performance 1.4 meg 03
No point on the 1.4 you wont make a differance
you could put a air filter on to make it breath better
but to be honest nothing is going to give you much
ive got a 1.4 and ive made it into a 225 replica

Hi Steve, as said not much but i put a genuine 225 exhaust system on mine CAT back...which has decreased the regular flat spots between 2-3,000 rpm. Also a K&N Panel filter will make some refinement to response also.
Also some good spark plugs and BP ultimate.
The engine in mine does feels MUCH more alive and actually feels like a 100bhp should.

Ive done the same with the zorst but i removed the centre box sounds really good now
bp ultimate is pointless to be honest only works on performance engines

Re: performance 1.4 meg 03
Would'nt do much alterations to a DCI engine exhaust system. Severely sore on the turbo if there is not enough back pressure.

Back pressure is an old wives tale, especially when your talking about a turbocharged engine.

Re: performance 1.4 meg 03
Kinda off topic but how can the words 'performance' and '1.4' come in the same sentance?!?
Your looking at 98 -100 BHP. Hardly performance. Unless its got a turbo and super straped to it! ie 1.4 TSI.
I own a 2.0 VVT at now 143BHP. It still slow as my granny!

A remap on the diddy 1.4 gains 7bhp/15nm torque, not bad for a little lump...
