Search for a Tun-it chip. You get them for most diesel engines, weve had 2. One in a beemer and another in a navara, you cannot get them for tractors too, it's just a box with a plug that plugs onto the engine, adjustable and gives you a good jump in power. Roughly £300, but that's what you would pay for a pro remap and you can't just take off to revert back to stock.

Do you mean you can't take I remap with you when you sell, you can get the map removed but if you want anytime, the trouble with the Tun-it boxes is that there a one size fits all remap if you get my drift.

 

You can remap most things a electronic controlled injection. And the person that remaps my stuff asks you what you want doesn't just stick the same map on the same model of engine over and over again.

If you do, you wont be advised to do it by a lot as thats the biggest tractor on that engine and then as you say the 135 jumps to a 6.8ltr engine. If it was the smallest tractor with that engine that it would be fine but I think in your case I think you would be pushing the engine to the limits.

 

The old man had his fastrac done and recons it was well worth it, it pulls trailers a lot better on hills (but then again its now just over 200hp), it cost them about £600 to be professionally done with some warrenty on the remap. If you want I can find out who did it, even though they are in Hertfordshire I think it was a national company.

Rsm beares are the best to speak to, the case mx 135 has the same

Cummings engine i think and I've seen them turned up to 160,any more you'll get head gasket problems. It's only a case of adjusting the pump but they are sealed,you need special 5 point hollow torx bits to get in and it needs doing on dyno. Beares are best to speak to think they have mobile dyno so they can come to you to do it. Providing the mcCormick still uses same engine and fuel system. Hope this helps.

Sorry mtx 125 is smaller engine, my bad. Check with Beares.
