Hello there,
I am new to the forum and recently became the proud owner of a 2018 Puma ST-Line. I have been reading up on different mods to boost performance; but I am looking for some real-world advice from those of you who have already gone down this road.
I am mainly interested in increasing both power and handling without sacrificing the cars reliability; as this is my daily driver. I have looked into remapping; intake/exhaust upgrades; and suspension improvements; but there are so many options that it is a bit overwhelming.
For remapping; I have come across a few companies like Mountune and Revo; but I am unsure which route would be the best balance of performance and safety for my Puma. Have any of you had experience with these (or other) tunes?
If so; what kind of gains did you see; and how did it affect the cars drivability in everyday use?
In terms of exhaust; I want something with a bit more growl but not too loud. Are there any exhaust systems you could recommend that have that nice sporty tone without being overbearing?
Also, I have gone through this post; https://www.projectpuma.com/threads/3-pumas-at-blue-bowl-chew-valley-mlops-saturday-somerset.35078/ which definitely helped me out a lot.
Lastly; I am considering upgrading the suspension for a sportier feel. Have any of you done suspension mods on your Pumas? If so; did it improve the handling significantly; and was the ride still comfortable for daily driving?
Thank you in advance for your help and assistance.
