Hi thinking of getting tuning box for is220d has anyone installed one @ does it really work @ how easy is it to install was told only need plugging in @ where do u normally plug em in  thanks not needed now.SOLD:yahoo:

I personally use a tuning box in my car and have been nearly a year now.

I purchased mine on

http://www.tdi-tuning.co.uk/

Easy to install (they installed for me for free) and customisable. Literally plug and play! (Guide included) I can feel the difference straightaway, much more responsive.

I have it set slightly to the economy mode and average around 45mpg motorway mainly.

That is interesting.

I had a look at the TDi tuning box, and it looks pretty good.

Did you get the regular or twin channel one?

Also, has it really decreased the turbo lag and improved economy?

Thanks.

Went for regular and u can definitely feel the difference. You get used to it after a while but change the setting to total economy and then you realise how underpowered the car actually feels!

Hmm, this sounds promising.

Any idea how much better the mpg is?

Thanks.

I dont really have the setting to full eco mode but on the mid setting im getting about 5mpg but again u can change the setting for more.

But i have set it so i get the best of both performance and eco.

Excellent.  Even 5mpg is pretty good.

Sounds like something every 220d owner should use :smile:

Thanks for the info.
