Remap

Hi all
i know their are a lot of threads about remapping but looking for upto date info.
I have a Defender 110 TD5 2000 i use for a spare tow truck (when the Ford Rangers are broke) i also want to do a bit of green laning in the truck.

So i'm thinking of getting a stage 1 done but by who
IRB developments ?
5 Alive ?
JE engineering ?
or any one got any better ideas
Cheers David

Got my Disco done by Gary at TD5 Alive would recommemd him to anyone.

Just make sure you blank off the EGR before you go.

That sounds a bit low !.

My remapped 2002 manual does 26.4 mpg,( all short journeys of 5/10 miles ). And 22.6 mpg towing my 200 tdi disco.

These readings are taken with slightly larger tyres than standard which give a very accurate milage count. ( hence a lower mpg figure ).

Its soooooooooooo much better with the map on though.

Thanks for that will give it a go nowt to lose, only fuel

I'm at 23,7 mpg when not towing and more "bigger" roads...more km's doing 75 mph (120km/h).
When towing a small trailer and more town traffic (not in 4th with lock-up) I only get +/- 20-21 mpg.

Until now all it still standard...de-cat & de-egr have been ordered.

Car is a end-2002 TD5 Disco2 (facelift) with autobox
