well first off a re-map is a major performance increase on these engines. and £££ to bhp ratio its the best bang for your buck. im not sure what the 130 can be mapped too but most cars average around 20%-30% power and torque improvement and in some cases improved fuel economy. cost??? usually around £250-£400 depending what type and where you go for it.
you may find that doing this will wear your standard clutch quicker but when it goes its worth urating the clutch as they handle torque better and can outlast the standard setup anyway.
