Despite the name, I've found useful info on briskoda.net for my SEAT, as well as the rest of the VAG range.

Most modern diesel tuning comprises chips or remaps. If it's a VAG unit that you're looking at, Revo's remap service seemed the most interesting when I considered it. I'm still sceptical about the power increases that any of them claim, though.

Avoid "over-ride" boxes that interfere with the sensors or fuel pump. You'd be better off with snake oil...

TDI HDI Site

Ford Site.

As a thread divertion, to be more specific on the same lines, any info on tuning a BMW E34 525 TDS??

Its not too bad really, but a bit more booooooooooost might not be a bad thing!!

A little more boost is easy, just shorten the wastegate actuator arm a little

Unfortunately not that easy, mr boost control in ECU says NO!!
