Mazda 3 Remapping

[Optimus]

Hi does anyone know if an ecu remap for a ford focus 2.0 will work on a mazda 3 sport 2.0?

Cheers

+1 to pgarner's post ^_^

surely the gains on a 2.0 N/A would be minimal anyway?

 

[pgarner]

superchips show a 8 bhp gain on the st170 couldnt see the 2.0 other than pre 2005
torque is up by 10ftlb so there is some gain there but IMO not really worth it for an otherwise standard NA

 

[metalonmetal]

I'm betting you wouldn't see the full 8hp gain if you dynoed before and after anyway.

I'm no expert with the NA but isn't a good Air filter/intake the best place to start ?

 

[pgarner]

yeah i would leave the mapping till last on a NA car whereas a FI one would be done 1st then tweeked later on

Isn't it only the 2.5 engine they share?

Celtic Tuning suggest very similar gains, if you can call them that
