Who is your insurer? Modified T5 - Page 2

I need to engage brain before posting......

Those figures are for the D5.....

MTE software gives 260bhp and 420nm for the T5 engine.

If you go to their 'stage 2' calibrations you are looking at 280bhp and 430nm, but you do have to fit a complete replacement exhaust system, downpipe with special cat plus 'cat-back. Additionally in warmer weather you do need to consider fitting a bigger intercooler to support those higher outputs due to the tiny standard item, without one you may find the ECU pulling back from the set targets.

Thought that was more like it Don! Didn't want to see you done out of business so thanks for clarifying - those figures more what I'd expect.

A-plan for me. Ring the Thatcham branch. They beat Adrian Flux 90% of the time and are much friendlier

To update on this, Esure offered me £202 unmodified and £250 modified with remap - pretty good I thought
