Progress Thread: bruce_19
#11
So I am just back from holiday and thought I better pull my finger out and start looking at spark plugs and panel filters as I start with the spark plug order on Friday and we will see how I get on with them from there.

I was also looking around at all the different options for engine tuning and it was on this forum and what people where saying about tuning boxes ect that got me looking more into other ways of tuning my car.

I searched to see if tuning boxes could give me good benefits and also came across peddle tuning boxes too which supposedly increase acceleration response so was wondering if people had any opinions on these?

Also after searching around for a while I decided to search for "can I tune a car with an auto gearbox" and I was surprised by what came up. Of course the likes of the VAG DSG box came up on most of the searches but there have been great results like faster gear changes which have lead to better mpg. Reading some of the information the gains are really impressive and I would assume if I could couple with either a tuning box and pedal or remap I would notice a difference or performance and mpg.

Of course the remap or box wont be happening until my warranty is out in November but between now and then I will be contacting the companies that are making the claims with the auto gearboxes remaps and seeing if they can do the remaps to the gearbox in my car.
