Personally, considering it's a normally aspirated engine and you're only going to get another 30bhp max from a remap (which I saw listed at costing £699), I'd leave it with the 450bhp it already has and set the remap money aside for maintenance costs.

Remap would be 300-400 local

Cost wise she not costing a penny, but only cause I’m not driving it lol

Open to offers on her if any one tempted
