I've had a polestar upgrade on my D5, I'm wondering what else I can do to squeeze some more power bhp and or torque. What would you suggest?
Thanks

Bin the dpf (have it mapped out of the ecu too)
Nos
Bigger turbo and injectors
Machine gun turret.
Polestar is a little less urgent than it can be....Good map tho.
Mines, no dpf, no cat and remapped. I've finally got the bottom of all the little issues.
Just need to plumb in the boost gauge and it's heading for the Dyno soon, but personally I think the map I have is ££££ or there is another issue, will be able to tell more once gauge is on.
Most if the Diesel Bosch maps I've seen are shocking! I tuned an Alpina D3 which turned out rather fast lately.Quote:

Yes I know I had mine mapped via Shem, although it wasn't a Shem map.Quote:

I'm tempted to have the mte map on the s60r, v70r and xc90 then I can have them on the Dyno and see the difference as all the car have base line Dyno figures.
can't take credit for that one only done a few s60 EDC15's.Quote:

I'd be surprised if the xc90 is more than std (185)
Does the remap bypass the dpf? Or is it still there waiting to cause issues, my s60 has a polestar map, I can't get hold of the previous owner a former member to have a chat I know it had a aftermarket air filter also but I've reverted back to a standard filter. Car is quick enough for me love the way it pulls up hills lol. I'm going to get a power flow exhaust system on it should see some gains with that
My ecu was cloned and mapped then additionally had the dpf write out and EGR also written out.Quote:

I'll have it back on the Dyno and see the outcome, it may just feels slow as its so heavy.
Everything I've done has made it feel faster every time.
