Welcome Glen. First of all, I would ask what your daily driver is? If you happen to be used to a turbo diesel for instance, then the Duratech will certainly seem a bit sluggish low down, so you may need to adapt your driving style a bit.
The other point I would make is that although there are plenty of performance tuning options available such as throttle bodies etc my observation of dyno curves published on here and elsewhere, is that they invariably only start to pay their way at 3000 revs and above. So rather than spend the hard earned too early, try driving in this rev band area more and see how it goes. Don’t be confused with recent threads on here about the highly successful flash upgrades and new manifolds on plus 4 s with the newer GDI engines...they needed it! I had a remap done on my 2011 duratech plus 4 some years ago but to be honest, the low down difference is not noticeable but it certainly comes alive at 4 or 5000 revs, but you can’t drive around like that all the time or you start collecting points!
