Anybody now much about this>

I know I can order a box of tricks off ebay or wherever for about £200, said bloc claims to plug int tohe comon rail sensor and dynamicaly remap my engine.

This is supposed to give me in the region of 20 BHP and 40NM of torque!! all this whilst increasing my fuel econemy

I just dont believe it next you will be telling me you can by Cadburys Dairy Milk with creeme egg filling!!

oh and the car is a Corsa C SRI CDTI 1.7 100 BHP effort

problem with remap is the warranty issue apparantley these boxes can be removed with no trace.

Also after having made one car so un ecenomical to use daily im loathed to let anybody do anything to it which i cat eaisly remove.

its basically a resistor. the tunning box makes the ECU think there is less fuel going in so increases it. due to the extreme A/F ratio in TDi's you get mroe power. the only thing is that analogue ones are on all the time so more fuel even on partial throttle. its a cheapish way to go.
