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.?
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."
They can also be 150 in the Corsa though as my Black Edition is the 150 version. Not sure if it's the same engine with a different mapping or bot though.
I've got a 67 plate 1.4T 100hp. Looking to get a remap in the future (once the warranty is up). Can anyone recommend a company?
Also what other mods would go well with the map.
Cheers
