I seem to remember someone saying that this can problems with drive-shafts...I'm sure the Mondeo forum would be a good place to look up

bluefin has been around the longest and costs £500, it will take your car up to 185hp and around 400lbft. there have been no reliability issues with it from what ive read up on and the fact you can up-load and down-load the map is handy, especially when going in for servicing. although i do believe its undetectable anyway. the mpg increases as the car does not ahve to work as hard.

another re-map about is dreamscience, this is very new to the st tdci and costs the same, it has various switchable maps and you can actually tweek it to suit your needs.

im looking into both of these for my st, im waiting on the info from dreamscience to come through, but from what ive read you cant go wrong woth the bluefin

Never did it on mine but was very tempted, a few people i talked to about it, said the one problem was an increase in soot when booting it. The other one was ford picking up on it when they re-flashed the ecu with the newer code at about 20k miles (well thats when mine got an ecu update).

400lb/ft is not possible with just a remap.

the idea though id to put the original back on before a service and then re-load the bluefin after the service

Hi

I supplied the graph as reference.

I then agreed with you that you must be reading it wrong. I didn't realise it was a question. I did add a smiley too as I didn't want my response to be misconstrued.

Once asked to explain, I didn't want to double post as Cupra got in there first.
