Peugeot 2008 II 1.5L BlueHDi 130ps

Before the remap, the Peugeot 2008 1.5 BlueHDi 130 PS went on our dyno and showed 123 PS and 270 Nm, slightly below Peugeot's factory figures. Such a shortfall can come from several factors, such as fuel quality, a loaded or partly blocked DPF, especially on cars that mostly do short urban trips and don't complete their regenerations properly, and the accumulated wear of a high-mileage engine. We then carried out a Stage 1 remap, with a final result of 153 PS and 335 Nm, a gain of +30 PS and +65 Nm over the real stock measurement. Our extensive experience with Peugeot and Citroën 1.4, 1.5, 1.6 and 2.0 litre engines lets us know their limits in practice: how far to push and where to stop. A proper calibration is the right balance between performance, thermal load, mechanical stress, longevity and reliability.
