2008 Transit Mk7 85PS in Moondust

[Kidman]

Van now has a power tune map, its approx (estimate, realistic based of performance figures) 130PS now and does move quite well.

Off the top of my head that's a 52.94 percent increase in power
How did you arrive at said figure?

And not unrealistic. Basing it on the 0-60 (its the same as a 130PS Sportvan) and the fact that when it was Eco tuned, it had no problem edging in front of an unladed 115PS.

If i can find a RR I will get it checked but it really doesnt bother me if its 130 or not, i'm not boasting, 2.2 TDCi's are easily tuned to this level, Bluefin claim a 50bhp increase on their remap and i'll tell you right now, there map wont be as good as Vantuners.

I might have a do at that then

Rofl.. Redline is at 4500rpm anyway, not as if its doing any damage, Al can vouch for my old van mechanically it was spot on... And it was driven hard, but never from cold.

Van looks good.

Just out of intrest, where did you get the Stainless tread plates for front bumper?

Cheers

How much off the top of your head?

They are about £25 quid each. I have one brand new one available for £15 if you want it.

Nothing major to report, its been running lovely, now up to 72k. Run only on V-Power or BP Ultimate its quieter, smoother and more responsive. Idle always goes funny with Esso fuel so I tend not to use the bog standard diesel.

After advice from VanTuner I have raised my boost slightly so it comes in stronger and has a little bit more at peak, best bit of all is being able to achieve over 42mpg! Doesnt go much under 35mpg either in city driving, much better in this respect than the old van.
