Posting this for anyone who is interested in this tune some were down the line.
2015 V6 base model (340hp) 100k miles.
Level 1 tune with dyno read out before and after tune. Read out at the rear wheels.
302hp, 416nm - 386hp,480nm.
I will not get involved in hand bags at dawn and arguing. I have been around PH long enough to know how things might go :wink:
I am posting this for anyone who might want to know this information, that might find it helpful.

Nice one. I had my V6S remapped last year but no dyno readout, just the butt dyno that definitely felt a difference.
Can't use much of the power this time of year mind, just spins the rears up at every opportunity

I've often wondered what the turbo 4 cylinder could be tuned unto, from emery the torque curve looked very flattened as if they had done this on purpose either to stage it against the v6 or due to the limits of the drive train

I can answer that, 342bhp stage 1. This is my dyno run at Celtic. I'm not sure what it can be pushed to. I also had the gearbox tuned to low the torque limits and give faster shifts. Really pleased with the results.

That is really impressive, it must be fun and pretty well balanced with the lighter front end

google tells me it saves 60-70kg over the v6
the v8 being an extra 30kg
the AWD v8 being another 20-70kg the lower one being the full weight saving options of the SVR

such a shame they never did a lightweight version, get rid of things like the electric seats but put the weight saving options on the i4 maybe get it below 1400kg

That's quite impressive. What is the maximum power that can be extracted from the 4 cylinder turbo engine in the f-type?

Yes it would be an interesting proposition, I'm pretty sure it would pretty quick and fun to drive.

I've no idea, I'm sure there are some people outt here that can extract more simply by improving air flow and fuel / turbo pressure. How much the standard internals can take I don't know.
But unless you're going to take these cars onto track days, at least in the UK the opportunity to take enjoy them is few and far between.
But it's still nice to have that bit of poke 😊
