why are you bringing swapped engines
Chetan , no one is talking about SWAPPED engines here .. It is infact true what v1p3r has posted .. We are talking about bolt on parts giving performance gains (or in this case which dont) .. By changing the intake manifold , headers , ECU on the indian D15 you can infact get to that magical figure of 134bhp (thai engine dyno figure) rather than wasting money on other stuff like porting , increasing compression etc .. What would you go for ?? These bolt on parts or let some tuner work on your engine to make power ..

Also I dont see how one can remap a certain ECU on our cars .. The only thing you can do on the ECU (atleast most cars being sold here) is remove the limiter and thats about it .. Or go in for a standalone or a piggyback .. Which would again amount to a SWAP as you put it .. So how do you intend to remap after a header change unless you swap an ECU ??
