4.4 v8 remap

Hi, pick up my new FFRR on sunday, a 2003 4.4 Vogue, was looking at an emaps remap to release a few more horses and torq's and perhaps some additional MPG, the remap gain is fairly minimal but wondered if anyone has applied a similar map to their RR?

Cheers.

Not really worth it it Ia'm afraid , better spend your money on something worth while . The received opinion is that the rewards aren't worth it . Try the Wiki Thumbs Up
What i'm really saying is the rewards of chipping a BMW 4.4 are very little Big Cry 2008 MY Supercharged

I thought the same for my Petrol SC. Hoping for improvement in Economy (cough) as well as Performance Whistle

Take a look on the SuperChips website as an example . You type in your model car, and it has the 'before' and 'after' performance graphs.
There is hardly a difference Neutral Alcohol and eBay is never a good mix

I think the best "upgrade" for a 4.2 S/C is a 5.0 S/C Whistle MY 2010 5.0 SC Galway green and sand interior!!
Have the Faultmate MSV2 Extreme to be tinkering with the settings etc. !!

My suspicions confirmed! Any 'worthwhile' upgrade suggestions would be much appreciated.

It's currently going through a spruce up at the garage I made the purchase so those areas should have been seen to.

Personally, yes - from lowering the suspension for better handling, tweaking settings and clearing/checking fault codes to monitoring readings on the move. Land Rover Addict
