has anyone fitted one of these tuning boxes?? any advice would be helpful, have heard from friends with other diesel cars that they work well and are well worth the money. also has anyone fitted a dump valve on a 1.9 dci.
cheers

I'd be interested to know that too! I've seen a couple of them, ranging from £89 to £395, for the same kind of performance! Call me an old sceptic, but, can there REALLY be that much difference in the price for the same thing???

[size=150]still havent bought one, just waiting for a friend who has just bought a mondeo st tdci, which came tuned with "BLUEFIN" some sort of hand held tuning device, have contacted the manufacturer to see if it can be used on any car as its taken his mondeo from 150bhp to 180. and according to the website will take my 120bhp to about 148. if that doesnt work will definatly try a diesel box and if it works i will post on here.

Tuning boxes do work pretty good, my mate has one on a Golf gttdi.
Dump valves can be fitted to the 1.9 dci, DervDoctor are the best by far... but they are pointless on a diesel unless you just want the noise
