Thread: TDV6 ECU upgrade options

Without dyno testing I am not able to give before and afters - however after my BAS remap I have not noticed any noticeable change in fuel consumption (and I record every drop of fuel that goes into my car). Logically you should not notice any real difference as you will use the extra power available - in theory if you were to drive the same as you did before the remap, fuel consumption should improve marginally as the engine is now arguably more efficient.

What I did do though, was a series of 0-100kph tests with the map in and out - the time decreased just under 2 secs in acceleration so there is substantial improvement (14s to 12s - foot off the accelerator at the start) - and Drive is now Quicker than Sport mode in straight acceleration from a standing start - though Sport feels better in the gears when on the road.

Edit - I normally get about 11l/100km around town but can get as low as 8.5 or as high as 13 depending on how I am driving.

I have the one from Davis Performance. The difference is astonishing. I would also say almost 2 seconds faster to the 100k. The fuel economy has not changed at all. I'm still getting between 9 and 10 l/100km (I do 90% highway driving). I get an airbag fault showing, and the occasional suspension fault too, but I did install the LLAMS kit at the same time, so I don't know which one causes the faults.
