Standard 131 CDT and X-Power Map upgrade, are they one and the same?

Keith · 27th July 2007, 08:43

Just a thought and I doubt anyone knows a definitive answer to this but perhaps someone has seen this covered before.

I assume the performance characteristics of the standard later 131 CDTi cars was gained from using the same map you could buy if you bought the £400 X-Power upgrade from MGR for the 116 cars

Or were there any difference between these or even between the characteristics of the standard 75 and ZT production maps?

I ask because I have the X-power CD and obviously I also have the standard 116 and 131 maps on my Testbook CD now if I could find a way to upload either to my 116 (which I have not yet) which would be the one to use?

I am assuming there is no difference, but it would be interesting to know if anyone thinks otherwise and why?

The Litersature I have for Dealers Keith says the Upgrade just brings the CDT to CDTi specification.
Not a definitive answer, as I thought the only difference was BHP?

I'm sure they will be the same, just programmed at the factory for the cdti and supplied to dealers for the upgrade. I can't see any logical reason why they would differ or it would every one even more!
