1.6 BlueHDI 8V 75 BHP 2015 – 2019 Bosch EDC17C60 EU6 Citroen C3

If you’re planning to remap your Citroen C3 1.6 BlueHDI, then you’ve made a great choice. At HDI Tuning, we house the most advanced remaps tailored for this engine and ECU variant (Bosch EDC17C60). We’ve poured countless hours into research and development to craft an optimized remap. An HDI Tuning remap isn’t just about raw power; it focuses on reliability. Always designed to stay within the safe confines of the engine components, the turbo charger, and the clutch.

The 75 BHP and also the 100 BHP models of the 1.6 Blue HDI are fitted with the exact turbo and the same injectors. Meaning, we can enhance power through a remap without altering your vehicle’s hardware, and the advantages of the 75 BHP engine align with those for the 100BHP engine.

If you would like to program the ECU yourself you can use the MyGenius OBD programmer. This tool programs over the OBD diagnostic port so you won’t need to remove the ECU. You won’t require specialist tools to do this on your own, but having a battery charger or stabiliser on hand is crucial during ECU programming.

Citroen C3 1.6 BlueHDI 75 – Stage 1 (126 BHP | 300 Nm)

Our Stage 1 remap for the Citroen C3 1.6 BlueHDI 75 BHP provides 300Nm of torque, with a peak BHP of 126. The stage 1 remap ensures consistent torque across the rev band, making the vehicle drive effortlessly, akin to a more robust factory version.
The AdBlue and DPF system remain unaffected by this remap. We always stay close to stock air fuel ratios, ensuring a clean combustion. When adjusting the ECU the OEM torque structure is followed closely, ensuring injection maps remain unchanged. This means dependable power without jeopardizing the DPF.

Stage 3 (150 BHP | 320 Nm)

Our Stage 3 remap requires a turbo upgrade and will take your 75 BHP BlueHDI to 150BHP and a staggering 320Nm of torque. The stage 3 performance remap provides consistent smooth torque through the entire rev range and great top end power. The 120 BHP BlueHDI engine is fitted with an excellent fourth generation Garrett GTD1244VZ turbo from the factory, we simply need to fit this turbo and then the software is changed to take account of this. There is no need to change the injectors as these are the same on all 1.6 BlueHDI engines.

Stage 3 (185 BHP)

The Stage 3 remap uses a hybrid GTD12 turbo. The turbo needs an upgraded 49mm compressor wheel fitted and the compressor housing machined to match. The turbine side is unchanged, the thrust bearing should be upgraded to a 360 bearing to add strength.

This remap also requires an upgraded intercooler, ceramic paddle clutch (there is a LOT of torque) and a full 2.5 inch exhaust system.

Programming Methods – OBD2 or bench programming

Only genuine tuning tools can program the EDC17C60 over OBD such as Autotuner, Combiloader, and now we can also program this ECU type using Dimsport MyGenius.

Recommended programming method:

Program over OBD using the Dimsport MyGenius standalone tool

The Dimsport MyGenius tool is the safest, easiest and most reliable way to program your ECU from home. Simply connect to the OBD port and let the tool do the work, no need to remove your ECU or bench program for most ECU types. For more information have a read here

Programming via Bench service mode PCM Flash or any tools with bench service mode

This is our preferred way to program. The ECU must be removed, but there is no need to open the ECU and risk damage. A full backup can be made of both the EEPROM and the internal flash memories, also the external flash can be read on models where this is present.

• Order a tool such as KTM bench or PCM Flash.
• Remove ECU from the vehicle.
• Connect specified wires to ECU plug connector.
• ID the ECU.
• Read the ECU memories.
• Email software to HDI Tuning.
• Wait for us to prepare your remap and return it back to you.
• Program the remap to the ECU using the same method taken to read the ECU.
• Refit the ECU, check engine starts.
• Let your engine warm up and then take the car for a spin, enjoy the extra power!

Bench Programming via KTAG

• Order a suitable tool such as Kess KTAG
• Install the tool to a reliable laptop.
• The ECU must be removed from the vehicle, and then the lid can be carefully pried open and removed. The best way to do this is with 1 small flat head screw driver, 1 medium, and one large. A heat gun will help soften the sealant. Always start at the end furthest from the flat bonded section of the lid. If you attempt to pry open this end you will damage the ECU. A video guide is available on youtube.
• Connect necessary pins to ECU connector plug.
• Connect boot pin to correct location. The processor is a TC1793.
• ID the ECU.
• Take a read of all memories present.
• Email the software to remap@hdi-tuning.co.uk along with a description of the remap you require.
• Send payment through our webshop.
• We will modify the software and send back to you. This normally takes less than 2 to 3 hours during work days.
• Using the same tool, ID then write to the ECU. This will overwrite the ECUs memory, it’s important not to interrupt the process. If you encounter any problems we can fix the ECU for you so there’s absolutely nothing to worry about, if you made a backup of all memories you’re extra safe in the event that something were to go wrong.
• Straighten the lid on the ECU and seal with a little silicone.
• Refit the ECU and start the engine.
• Let your engine warm up and then take the car for a spin, enjoy the extra power!

Programming via OBD EDC17C60

• Obtain a suitable programming tool. We recommend Dimsport MyGenius if you want to program over OBD.
• Install the tool to a reliable laptop.
• Connect to the OBD port of your car, make sure you have backup chargers to the vehicle battery and the laptop battery.
• ID the ECU and then take a read of the ECUs flash memory.
• Email the software to remap@hdi-tuning.co.uk along with a description of the remap you require.
• Send payment through our webshop.
• We will modify the software and send back to you. This normally takes less than 2 to 3 hours during working days.
