Ron Burgundys Moustache Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 I see these on my Facebook feed a lot, and I've been on the website, but has anyone actually tried one before? I can post a link, if anyone wants more info? (if forums rules allow that is) I quite fancy one as a cheap upgrade and to provide a little extra boost, but I want more than just their website offering opinions and "ZOMG BEST THING EVARR" posts about it :) any advice or first hand experience is welcome, thanks :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stoney871 Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 My mate has one from TDI Tuning that I fitted for him a week ago. He loves it and the unit is reported to add 30hp to his car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron Burgundys Moustache Posted March 10, 2014 Author Share Posted March 10, 2014 is it easy to install? its just an inline unit isn't it? wouldn't want to start hacking away at the ECU! has your friend noticed any economy benefits? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stoney871 Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 On the 1.8 it's easy to get to the commonrail loom plug (front left side). On the 1.6 it's hidden rear right side of the engine and the battery box needs to come out. His box is adjustable for maximum economy or maximum performance. On max performance he has noticed a small improvement on fuel usage and a lot more oomph. They just plug in and need no cutting or splicing at all.
