FRIEND OF MINE DOES IT, THEY FLY, DEF WORTH IT BUT YOU WANT A BIG INTERCOOLER AS WELL.

no disrespect to Jas or porny,But last time some 1 asked i gave advice which then turned into a flame ware where at the end of the day it was put across as i was wrong & the other individual was correct,I work for a worldwide company that tunes TD5s & other vehicles so a little credit for what i was saying..... :roll:

Well If jas wants me to supply a chip & extended loom he can contact me on 0845 345 4045 & ill happily try & do a deal for him but as it stands in general im no bothered anymore...maybe this is the wrong thread to say what i think but hey,we can all shoot fae the hit & frankly my dear i dont give a damn....

I shall see those who go to clog in april & i might catch up with some others on msn,but for now i feel i should sit back & let the others who clearly have more knowledge than what i want to give to others take over.....

Also a wee lesson in how to use the search function wouldnt go amiss :wink:

Post by: rommelsraider973 on March 11, 2007, 22:43:15

Been out in my mates today....dastek did the tune...awesome bit of kit up to 193bhp i think he said? Certainly shifts!! As to all the ins and out...well i,m just a cook!! ha..ha! not really  ,but there are alot of peole out there that know a lot more than i do...i just enjoyed the drive :D  :shock:

I am having a new intercooler added and hoses to my 300TDi next week and having it chipped with twisted performance....part of my mini upgrade for the charity drive i'm doing in April , hope it will save me a bit of fuel and get me up and down the hilly bits in Scotland when we get there? :twisted:

Post by: rommelsraider973 on March 11, 2007, 22:58:58

Yep...mines the auto drive by wire version Mike....thats why i went for the chip me old mate...was at a meeting with some mates and they were tuning all the 300tdi engined landies up , got to mine and well.....went home the same!! lol :lol:
Hope to get some more power out after the chip and new bits...am having a rooftent fitted to mine too , plus all the extra weight we will have on board? Just want to try and average about 350 - 400 miles still out of a tank? Do you think it will manage?

Sorry Mike...wasn't putting it across like that mate...haven't got any idea about these things mate, was just trying to give you the right info.  All i can say is that it was pretty awesome driving a chipped Disco when your used to a 300tdi just trundling along!! lol :lol:
