    Yeah, same I was saying, if you do some mod and engine life reduces due to that, than still 1 lakh is achievable. On stock engine, car can go further more.

    I need to plan to overtake, even I observed that state transport buses were overtaking quickly. May be because car is still in running in period and I am tend to be light footed.
    I have said this before. If you are overtaking a vehicle whis is doing the same/similar speed of you, sticking to 80Km/hr won't help you out.

    Planning the mods after 2 Years only, right? Am sure, by that time new performance kits will come.

    Lol!! Even I have got my Swift Diesel remapped from Cosworth. Its not exactly 30%, but u can expect around 20 to 25%..

    You can read this post http://www.team-bhp.com/forum/test-d...ml#post2755337. Cosworth turns out not only cheapest (though 16k is not cheap for me) but also the best among all the tuners out there. I really pity those guys who go for 30k+ remap. Searching on Google worldwide, it indeed seems that Cosworth are the best tuners, especially for Fords. And that they can even work on puny 1.2L engine. What's more, your mapping is even done by Cosworth experts in England and not by some Indian Cosworth staff.

  7. Thanks akshay380 thanked for this post
