The Subaru Forester 2.0 XT 240hp is a 2.0L naturally aspirated petrol engine producing 240 BHP and 350 Nm from the factory. With a typical Stage 1 remap, output increases to approximately 270 BHP and 410 Nm — a gain of around 30 BHP (12%) and 60 Nm (17%).
This engine has limited 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 moderate, based on the percentage gain available from the factory output.
Considerations: Naturally aspirated engine: gains are usually limited; results vary widely.. High tuned torque: check transmission torque capacity and service history.
