    I think we're agreeing - the D4 2.7 punches well above its stats, it's just the lag thing, and if more torque is safely available, it's always welcome!
    I'm a convert after remapping my TD5...

    Recently fitted a "Chip Express" from the UK to my D3 2.7.
    There are many others, but I have set myself a budget of $700.
    It gives noticeable more power from take-off up to about 3,000 rpm.
    Fuel economy is better and it is down under 10 litres/l100 around town,
    Its never going to pay for itself, but its nice to have the extra power and range.
    Cheers,

    To clarify:

    The above is an "interceptor"
    Chip It is an "interceptor"

    BlueFin is a re-map

    Remaps are a better idea. More scope for tweaking and accuracy.

    Hi all, just another option for you to consider, we are able to edit the actual program on the ECU. We have all the anti tune software. Any questions let me know. So no tuning box, no factory file. Benefits all well discussed previously.

    Cheers

    No mention of D4 on your website; and are the file edits dealer-detectable?

    Look them up on the web.
    http://www.superchips.co.uk/search'm...5&variant=1714

    The results look ok and there are people in Aus who do them for around $700ish


    Over 230kw and 800Nm!

    What gearbox is behind the TDV8?

    I have just done a superchips reflash to my 2012 rrs 3.0L diesel.
    Results are enormous and well worth the spend. I have lots of experience with chipping , remaps and dp chip boxes etc ....the superchip remap seems to have shown considerably better results, and a very smooth vehicle ....no smoke and power off the line and all the way throught o 160kmh before it seems to stop pulling ....

    go for it !!

    wow what a thread, just read the lot and some associated UK threads as well.

    Seems that the MAP sensor clean and getting EGR valves checked is well worth it.

    My 2007 D3 2.7TDV6 is off to the stealer tomorrow for 6 year service, last one under the lease and have requested they check both MAP sensor and EGR valves as performance is pooh and fuel economy bad at present.

    I am then very much leaning to a bluefin re-map. Love the sound of that improvement.

    anyone know where you can buy that 10k boost spray stuff here in oz?
