Skoda Fabia 1.4 16v 75BHP Automatic Upsolute remap

[Shayx]

hello,

i'm thinking about remapping my fabia to get extra 8BHP using the

Upsolute software, has anyone here have experience with this software

on this specific model? does 8BHP extra worth it?

what could be the damages to the engine?

thanks.

No risks I wouldn't have thought as there is no forced induction that will put the engine under extra stress really.

Is it really worth it though? How much will the remap cost you?

Probably get just as good gains spending your money on a service, new air filter and a decat on the exhaust.

around 290 GBP after conversion from ILS sounds like a lot

buy i can try it for a week...

today the fabia is very sluggish especially when turning on AC and i'm looking for a solution...

the car was treated 3 months ago, no problems found, replaced all the usual filters.

At the end of the day, it's a 1.4 75HP with a slushbox auto.

It will pretty much always feel sluggish.

Has it got any worse lately?

When was it last serviced?

Want some free power? Give it the good old Italian tune-up

i'm afraid to ask but what exactly is the "good old Italian tune-up"

buying an Alfa?

and of course another 8BHP won't make it a beast, but any improvement will be a bless.

In other words... thrash the hell out of it for an hour or so.
