Mapping the Trophy Friday.

[planetx]

Taking the Trophy into JMS Friday for a remap.

Haven't a clue what I am doing, just doing it cos a mate said "it's good"

car is totally standard apart from Yozza Catback, ITG panel filter.

NOT having the over run function, just the map.
Am I going to notice much difference???

 

[The Boosh!]

Power wise no. Smoother torque curve. Defo an improvement!

 

[JJS1979]

Yess you'll be impressed, just more driveable..

[Beef-Mc]

Better running from cold and a slightly improved MPG is the rumours.

 

[172-Tom]

whats the 'over run function'?

 

[planetx]

pop and bang^^^^^

[tollan172]

waste of money imo i got a map when i had my 172 full exhaust and an itg panel filter and theres no diffrence in anything u would notice save ure cash get some good tyres or summat....

 

[172-Tom]

So they can map your car to make it pop and bang?? Does it F**k anything up??

 

[tollan172]

all clios with exhausts pop and bang when there cold well mines and my mates did... no big deal i wouldnt pay £300 + for a remap tbh

 

[planetx]

hmmmm^^^^^ you may have muddled my mind now>

think it only costs £180 at JMS, I keep getting mixed views on them thats all

Do they? :S:S:S

 

[Matt_90]

They might burble a little depending on exhaust with some smal pops, but nothing like the JMS over run map.

TBH mate I would go for it........

 

[172-Tom]

Do other mapping companys do the over run map? Where are JMS based??

 

[planetx]

Uxbridge

 

[Matt_90]

Jms are based in uxbridge I belive, I think they are the only ones who offer the Overrun map! check out their threads in the traders section I am sure all your questions can be answered in there.

Over run map is awsome though...

Having had this as a first modification for the Cup when I got it, it does make a difference. A bit more torque which you can feel as well as what John said making it more smoother to drive. Seeing as you have a panel filter and a catback exhaust it should tie in with them mods also as they were the next 2 things I did with mine.

And to the guy that says the clios pop normally... Really?

 

[Daz.]

It does make the car run better, but I don't thinks its worth £180.

 

[Nick172Cup]

Not as bad as spending over £250 on just an catback exhaust when it makes naff all difference other than noise?

Just imo of course.

 

[Daz.]

Oh I'm glad I did it but I did it myself and nowhere near £180, agree about the exhaust - only time I'll replace this one is when it drops off!

 

[Nick172Cup]

Ah well thats fair enough if you did it, but there are people that are slightly unsure of how to do it and its not worth risking locking the ecu or whatever it does if you get it wrong. Its still the cheapest reflash out of all the RS tuners and specialists on here.

 

[Cookson]

I used to have a decatted 1.8 16v, and that popped like a popcorn machine

 

[tollan172]

in regards to the popping i had a janspeed cat back and a decat... and my mate had a magnex witha decat and when ours were just turned on they would pop and bang like fcuk!!! im just saying i had a map done to my clio and i have never had such a frown u cant actually notice any diffrence no matter what they say i couldnt and i just say it like it is! go ahead n get it done and kid ureself on that theres a diffrence then go up the q mile and still run a 15.1 the same as u did b4 the map and then say what a waste of money

Do they do it when warm? No. Anywho thats besides the point. The OP isn't even referring to the over run map.

With regards to not noticing a difference, utter tosh - unless your car was mapped by a flid that is?

They are a lot more drivable after a map, and my mpg even creaped up a little.

Not so pointless if your standard exhaust is rusted and on it's last legs though.

 

[JJS1979]

Agree with Nick, if your someone who wants to spend 250£ on a catback system for the noise so be it. But if you want a tangible difference in how the clio drives then a remap is the best option by far.. throw in the pops and bangs map and you've got the drama as well!! win.

mine does the same:approve:

Indeed, however I was referring to performance gains than quality of product...
