V6 with Chips
Does anyone have any experience in improving performance on the Xantia V6? Something simple like chipping, air filter etc.

They did with the 406 it is avalable with manual box and fly wheel (you will need both). you will also need to raid eather a xantia 2.1 or CT for the clutch actuator and pedels as there hydrolic. I figured while doing this it was easyer to buy an activa and just transfer the engine and interior.

There is a company in Germany that claims to do a chip for the Xantia V6, giving an extra 13 BHP. http://www.dbilas.de/English/dbilas.html
The engine certainly feels like it is being held back by the tuning.
