When I say remapped to I mean what BHP I gather it is a 2.2 TD4 so most likely 157bhp

Hi he didn,t actually tell me a figure and i never really asked as i know its in good hands but i,m thinking about 30bhp is the norm.He did say the ones he as done before the extra mpg is minimal about 5 to 6 more on a run and 2 to 3 round town but he said it will be faster and pull lots better

Would insurance companies need to know about this modification?

Absolutely. Any modifications need to be declared to your insurers.
We can cover remaps no problem at all if anyone needs a hand with insurance

even if if its a stage 1 remap ?
Any modification, no matter how small, the insurance company should be informed. Basically it can increase the risk, so makes the premium higher.

This is why i asked the question on here.Should i inform the insurance if its only stage one.And the answer was yes
I suspect that insurance companies have tightened up there approach to tuning in the 8 years since that thread was posted.
I'm curious as to who decides on what is a stage one, stage two and so on.
When I was in the tuning game (NA petrol of course). Stage one was literally a decent exhaust and air filter. Stage two was ported head and carb, ignition re-calibration. Stage three added a high performance cam and 40DCOE carbs to the mix.
I'm just curious as to what is a stage one on a turbo diesel?
