Hi There,

I am new here. As I am from Europe - Slovakia excuse my English errors if any occurs.

Does anyone have experience, whether positive or negative, with chiptuning of diesel engine. May it cause any serious damage either to engine or automatic gearbox?
Please advice an opinion whether to go for it or not. What would be better - software upgrade or so called power box?

Thanks for your replies on this topic.

Ahoj brate. Many people have done it with good results. Search for posts by Skaffa from Finland - he got excellent results. Several tuners in Poland do it. In particular a company called vtg has good results. Price here is around 2000 PLN (470 Euro). www.vtg.com.pl

I vitajte na forum. It's the best, friendliest and most international of the ones I know and has a wealth of information - use the search function and you'll be amazed.
