Bentley GT Speed MK1 Tuning

[Salva]

Hey Guy's and Girls,

We recentley bought a Bentley GT Speed from 2009 and I must say coming from a AMG C63 507 the power is dissapointing :-).

It's a diferent expierence offcourse because the V8 from AMG is loud and agressive and the W12 is a gentleman.

Anyway we are thinking of mounting the sports exhaist from Larini and do a ecu remapping. This shoud give the engine with the BMC longs a power around 900nm and 700BHP.

I am also changing the stereo because the systems is really out of date and just bought this https://navtv.com/products/NTV-KIT783/bentley-hur.... .


Doe anybody here has tips for us?

And why would I do this? just because I just do not wanne loos a traffic light drag!

Might be worth reading this thread and ask Speculatore how he got on:

I got that but I am curious of the 0 - 100 after the remap and tuning.

The 0 - 60 is touching 4 seconds.

That's perfect for a 2300 kilo car. And I imaging the butterflies will hit the stomach because of the extra nm?

I will try to get an official time once I have stage two of the upgrade carried out on Wednesday. Already at 706BHP with a Torque graph that looks like a sKi slope.

I will upload some movies once stage 2 is completed next week. Here is the remap graph after the Larini ST2 Activalve system fitted and initial remap.

Up from a previous remap of 655bhp at 4000rpm to 705.6bhp at 6000rpm.

Will this fit with the original end pipes?

It should do as they are specifically fabricated for the Bentley. I have had the rear boxes done first which obviously fit the current Bentley centre section and the centre section comes in a few days time.

Okay than I will order these pipes to remove the restrictions form the CAT.

Tell us your experince I am foloowing you closely :-)
