wickerman999 Posted October 12, 2011 Share Posted October 12, 2011 Hello all, Straight forward question this one. Do diesel tuning boxes work? (In terms of improving your mpg)? They seem to click into the air intake. I gotta 2.0TDCI C-max and looking interested in them. Thank Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haylo714 Posted October 13, 2011 Share Posted October 13, 2011 Hi wickerman, They can work 2 ways really, they either plug into the air-intake and lie to the ECU about the amount of air available or they plug into the injector pressure sensor and lie to the ECU about the fuel pressure. I've also seen them lie to the ECU about engine temprature causing the ECU to think the engine is still cold and overfueling the car. I've heard mixed reviews of them, I've tried them myself aswell recently, I did notice some gains but I've opted to return it get a remap instead from a reputable company as the gains were far too ambitious and MPG didn't improve really at all. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lenny Posted October 13, 2011 Share Posted October 13, 2011 As said above mate, go for a Blue Fin remap or similar better for your engine and turbo ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
