Drivers of Ford Galaxy and S-Max vehicles using the 1.5-litre turbocharged petrol EcoBoost engine can now enjoy improved performance thanks to the latest addition to the ECU remap portfolio of Superchips, the global leader in the field.
Using the 1.5-litre engine and with 160PS from the factory, the Superchips remap adds a healthy 45bhp at 5811rpm and a huge gain of 62Nm torque at 3076rpm, on manual transmission cars only.
The full power and torque curves can be seen by clicking the following link:

Not only do the curves for the Superchips remap show much higher figures, the torque curve in particular eliminates a dip that is apparent from the factory. The torque curve for the Superchips remap also exceeds the factory maximum figure virtually throughout the engine rev range, giving Ford’s people carriers greatly improved driveability.
The conversion can be carried out by owner themselves, using Superchips’ Bluefin device, at a cost of £332 including VAT*.
With a Bluefin, users don’t need any mechanical or technical skills, simply plug the Bluefin handset into the diagnostic port (connecting to the vehicle’s Electronic Control Unit) and follow the on-screen instructions.
Alternatively, it can be performed by one of Superchips’ highly skilled nationwide dealers, at a cost of £365 including labour and VAT. The remap is covered by Superchips’ industry-leading 12-month/30,000-mile warranty**.
