Im not saying peak torque has shifted up by 300rpm since the remap, just a comment against factory claims, this will obviously depend on loading of the engine. I believe there was a software revision since the release of the 170ps, that limited torque low down due to issues with the DMF and clutch, every 170 i have driven has a noticable lag, IMO the 140 is a much better vehicle and at Stage 1 levels makes very simular power to a stage 1 170 model with much better response.
Stock 170ps cars in good shape on our dyno run around 167-172bhp and 250-255ftlbs, Stage 1 cars run around 185-190bhp and 290-295ftlbs. Thats not just with our supplier, we run a large variety of vehicles on club days which are tuned by other companies claiming 200+bhp. They dont make much extra power above 3500rpm over stock.
