It's got to be worth it looking at our results.

Please note these results are at the wheels not flywheel

We worked on this file for three days to produce these results modifying 17maps the job was, as you can believe a task in itself. We can gain allot more power but the vehicle becomes a little smoky as you can imagine, but know the end product is unreal and perfect Thumbs Up

United Kingdom 2005 Range Rover Sport TDV6 HSE Rimini Red

Well I chipped mine and glad I did. Just posted in the "TDv6 upgrade to TDv8" thread, where I explain why I upgraded from a TDv6 to a TDv8 and then had the TDv8 chipped Razz

Once I got the TDv8 though I immediately wanted to feel that power surge over and over, wanted to test the limits of the handling, the acceleration out of corners, the sweet (really very very sweet) feeling you get when accelerating hard and hitting the magical point of around 75mph where the engine and vehicle all just hit the same perfect note and it feels like warp factor has just been turned on (anyone who has tried a TDv8 will know what I mean Thumbs Up ). And then I got so addicted to that - I wanted more, so had the vehicle "chipped". RRS TDv8 HSE Rimini
