    i-DTEC is supposed to be 111kW. The old i-CTD was 103kW. I hope that it is a typo and not another detuned ECU because of our imaginary poor fuel.

    There are also plenty of gains to be had with these high tech diesels now days!
    Hot4's i30 Hyundai went from 85kW / 255Nm to 100kW / 330Nm (17% gain) with computer tuning.

    I think the Mazda 6 diesel engine sounds much more impressive...

    136kw and 400nm from 1800rpm.. Now that should mumbo nicely

    Theres 2 tunes of the new I-DTEC

    Theres a 110kw 350nm job for most

    and theres approx a 140kw 400nm tune for GT type/Lux models.

    Honda will decide who and in which markets it deploys them.

    They are going head to head with the mazda 6 here so lets see how this plays out.

    I believe most modern diesels are in a modest state of tune to preserve emmissions as thats the big target meaning that big gains are possible with re-tuning etc

    Yeah but the Euro will come as a manual and auto whereas the Mazda6 is manual only. For a car to have any hope of selling in sufficient numbers, it needs to have an auto version.

    Yeah, thats partly why mazda6 TD failed last time. Diesels seem to be more of a fad this time around though, so they might do a lot better.
