Can anyone help with this one... I have a plug in performance upgrade fitted to my TDV6 and my car is due to go in for (more) warranty work. Has anyone left theirs plugged in whilst waranty work was carried out? or should i just remove it just in case they get moody over it?

Sorry I cannot help directly with question but what plug in device is it and where does it plug in - I fancy something like this - something that isn't permanent... |

The simple issue with plugins is their visibility. If you want to avoid any unpleasantness, I'd take it out (and then consider getting an Turbochip or JE upgrade instead!)

Absolutely. These plug in boxes are cheap for a reason

Can you use these plug in devices in conjunction with a remapped ECU, if so where do you get them from some of my Previous cars

Envoy, I was told by a remap technician NEVER to combine the two, especially as the plug-in variety tends to overfuel. I bet you're thinking "double gain".., nice thought, but sadly I suspect not my friend. |

Agreed... both modifications will likely end up disagreeing in some way with an outcome that would be as beneficial to your car and stuffing custard into the fuel tank.

I was only asking from an interest point, not that i would ever consider doing something like that, just to improve my performance some of my Previous cars
