Kia Sportage 1.6 T-GDI 177hp Remap

The Kia Sportage 1.6 T-GDI 177hp is a 1.6L turbocharged petrol engine producing 177 BHP and 265 Nm from the factory. With a typical Stage 1 remap, output increases to approximately 220 BHP and 350 Nm — a gain of around 43 BHP (24%) and 85 Nm (32%).

This engine scores highly for remap suitability, with gains weighted towards torque — you will notice the difference most strongly in mid-range pulling power and in-gear acceleration. The tuning headroom is classified as high, based on the percentage gain available from the factory output.

Considerations: Turbo petrol: fuel quality and cooling can influence repeatable performance.. Large torque increase: drivetrain condition (clutch/gearbox) becomes more important at this level.

All figures shown are typical estimates based on aggregated Stage 1 data for this engine variant. Actual results depend on vehicle condition, mileage, and the chosen tuning method. We recommend discussing your specific vehicle with a qualified remap professional.
