2018 1.4t Mapping

I'm an old-ish man with a 2018 1.4t 100 as a daily, handed down to me by my wife but I want some more go! I've had a search around the net and ended up here.

How tunable is the 1.4t engine? Is there anyone South mapping these? How far can the engine be pushed on stock internals.?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Well, the 1.4T can be at 150ps in the Astra. I had one for a time and it went like a bat out of hell, if you pressed the loud pedal. However at the very least it would be wise to make sure that the gearbox, clutch, brakes and suspension are OK for the extra power. And what about the insurance? I reckon you'd be better to p/e it for something designed for more power.

The 1.4T in the Corsa and the 1.4T in the Astra are not the same engines.
The Corsa one is a old design, and the Astra one is a newer design which is a part of a modular family which the 1.0T also is a member of.

Oops! My mistake. It'll teach me to do my research properly!
However I maintain my opinion " I reckon you'd be better to p/e it for something designed for more power."

The 2018 1.4 T can be remapped to roughly 180BHP on the stock internals there are plenty of places on the internet that will do it.

The 100BHP engine is the same at the 140BHP engine that has been in the corsa previously but with a different tune.
