Default Tuning FOCUS TDCI or Mondeo

Has anyone enhanced there car with a flash tuner as yet? If you have who did you get it from and any thoughts?

I have two friends with diesel golfs who have told me the car truly comes alive and they would not have one again without a tune, would love to hear some feedback or even if anyone is planning on doing it in the future?

not saying I will Andrew of EF Ringwood

try this website i own an astra diesel with one of the CDR2 boxes and it made a difference like you would not belive. the best thing about the uk is the fact that they have been doing devalopment work with diesels for years.

I can't believe no one has modded it or offering it in Australia yet, talk about an untapped market? How much did it cost delivered 250 for the astra box?

landed at my door was about $680 aus i think. best money i've ever spent on my car. there is alot more info at this website. http://www.astraownersnetwork.com/forumdisplay.php?f=83
the person that makes these and does all the tuning for the astras is called ABYSS if you have any questions he will be more then happy to answer any questions you might have. it's all astra stuff but everyone who has got one of these tuning boxes swear by them. and the results are great.

also Paulie will be able to back me up about the difference the box made to my car. and they are fully adjustable.

At that price you'd think there'd be good value in having a TDCi meet and share the cost.

I just ordered the Mondeo TDCi and plan to remap it. Why? Because I also have a Focus XR5 with a Dreamscience Stratagem Flash Tuner and wow what a transformation it's made to it. Wouldn't hesitate to get it done. Might have to go with the Code Red though because there's no Dreamscience unit yet.
