on diesels a chip simply opens up the air intake more, its crude and inneffective compared to a proper remap, which in turn isnt as good as dyno test and setup

this how it SHOULD be done

HP+torque up by 20

Very easy to remap a turbo - diesel or petrol and this is a proper remap. I would be tempted by this but I fear the warranty wont stand it :(
