Focus Diesel and Chips (not the potato sort)

[paulmoonraker]

Hi all,

I recently purchased a Focus Zetec Diesel 1.8 TDCi for work. I am going to do about 20K a year in it, and was therefore wondering about getting one of those diesel chips that claim to boost MPG and power.

Has anybody any experience with these? Do we know if the engine, clutch and gearbox will be okay with the torque increase?

The best one is Bluefin. They claim to improve MPG aswell as the power / torque.

I wouldn't say that is necessarily true. Bluefin are pretty good, don't get me wrong, and the ability to remove it/check for errors etc is a nice touch, but I had my 2.0 TDCi remapped by Angel Tuning and it's superb.
