Love your vids man, always look forward to them.

Cracking vid Ricky and very informative. Looking forward to seeing your full review bro

17:08 I cant stop creasing up! You're reaction was priceless. I can just imagine you were probably thinking the cars falling apart after the tune lol

What a intelligent and professional man Steven is hats off, crazy gains.

Another excellent episode. Ricky I have to commend your spotlighting of different companies and services out there who cater for the aftermarket and just your professionalism in general. I'm still amazed you're completely self-taught. Keep up the good work! PS, please can you announce the next meet on KZread so I can attend? I never know what's happening! 😂 Cheers!

Great video as always Ricky, I've always been intrigued about these tuning boxes and difference between them and a full remap. Keep them coming buddy! 👍

I had this on my FK2 made a massive difference, had to take it off when I had the exhaust done as needed the ECU map.

really appreciate this one pal. Been thinking of one for mine for a good while as well from TDI Tuning themselves. A proper remap will bring a TD1 fault code for me at Audi so no warranty for me

Cant wait to see the bmw vs golf R keep up the good work

Great video again

U can’t beat a tailored map tuned live on a dyno session,these boxes are ok but but can’t compete with a “properly mapped ecu” BMW can tell if the car has had a box fitted even after its been removed by looking at the shadow data stored in the cars ecu ie: max rpm,max boost Kia,max fuel pressure delivered,ignition timing parameters plus the gearbox ecu stores various torque figures etc,these cannot be cleared with most scan tools available. But on the plus side quick and easy to fit/remove and transferable to other vehicles with a reasonable price for the results. Pull all the stops out Ricky and showcase this M4 with all the latest tuning mods,I’m sure all the contacts u have now will help u out with some goodies in return for some airtime! Keep up the good work ✌🏼

Hardly... 20-30% gains is normal for a remap

Had one of these on my Leon fr 184.Was fine for about 4 months then engine seem to be over boosting or misfiring at high revs and it started to sound like a tractor....Took it off and took it to Seat and reset everything....all good now.....

Just beware Ricky, BMW will still be able to tell the car has had a “box” fitted, even if it’s removed completely, if there is a power train warranty claim, the car logs everything, and will show higher than regular boost levels etc and these are all stored in the ecu. Big brother is always watching. 😐

A tuning box lies to your ecu, modifying the signal. For example boost: stock lets say 1.4 bar, tuning box reads that, modifies it, sends out lets say 1.2 to the ecu, ecu says lets crank that shit up because its not 1.4, sends it to the actuator, sensor now says 1.6bar, box modifies again now to 1.4, sends to ecu, ecu happy... It does this to a variety of sensors, interrupting signals so the ecu thinks and reads everyting is stock. This way no signals should be stored as abnormal.

*Quote of the day:-* “I need my own TopGear test track!”

I’ve got a dtuk box on my FR and it does make a difference. No fuel gain but no loss either. Seems to rev forever in third.

Another Top Video Ricky, on TDI Tuning's website now and ordering a module asap 👍👍

LLF imo best way to go is to try to get your hands on a spare ECU. You can go to town on one and keep the other stock. It's also safer as you will have a spare if the tuned one happens to get bricked for some reason. 👌

Good vid Ricky, I was gonna go down the road off a tuning box for my m135i, the only issue is they don't support decats or future mods.

would be good to see a before and after dyno, also would have been good if the guy from tdi tuning could explain a little more about how they work, even a remap vs tuning box to see what the differences are

Great vid, now start stocking rear tyres as you'll need them. Got the German race chip box fitted to my Bmw.

Quite a few people have bought these, tried them before and after on a dyno and do absolutely nothing, seen quite a few with them plugged in, turned right up and only making the same or less HP. Can't beat a proper rolling road remap with before and after runs

LLF Wknd 👌🏾🙌🏾🤙🏾

Great vid rorey do more tuneing vids !!

Would love to see you hooning that thing around a track Ricky

My brothers 140i bmw just made 471bhp and 500lbft it comes in low down in the revs on the graf but actually doesn’t fall on its face like you would expect just feels outrageously fast even when the auto gear box is banging through the gears at 6500rpm

Ricky this is a great video and great choice I think you have cleared up a lot of questions about tuning boxes, I would deffo get one after seeing this. Sik man... we should do a vid with my E55 AMG and yours... just a thought :)

I’ve had mine for about 6 months and just think it’s set up so well as standard. I wouldn’t mind a lowering spring kit but that’s it. Heard bad things with spacers, your body work will get smashed to pieces from stone chips. Otherwise, alcantara steering wheel and Cup 2’s for summer! Come to Spa! Much more fun than London. 👌🏻

S WB Cant really remember costs. I had lots done...sorry. Had the car G-Techniq'd when new and no marring or marks etc. I drive hundreds of miles on salty roads up and down to Manchester from London. If it does mark it I don't look at its ass and it's not a garage queen. I drive the doors off it! Mine is on the Motech KZread page San Marino Blue. V100 plate. Also I ran an M2 for over a year putting about 20,000 miles on it thumping down and back to Switzerland all times of year. Spacers, Motech Stance setup. Not a problem. At full speed on Autpbhan it handled about 30% more stable than on standard springs with no skipping about. Also always run Cups 👍👍👌 Tell Mike I sent you. He'll take great care of you. His setups have game changed my cars and I have several places that do it much, much nearer to me! Sorry for Hijiacking your video Ricky! 🔥🔥

Best car KZread channel by far, seen this channel grow from 10 subscribers and its mad to see it keep pushing but one thing though is look after yourself and Ur body and try hit gym Coz can see the stress on Ur face

Each to their own and all that and a lovely car you have but i personally couldn't put up with all that wheel spinning as it is just wasted power,and that is what i love about my Mitsubishi Evo X,it will stick like shit to a blanket whatever the weather,and being in the UK the weather in normally crap.

Sounds similar to the JB4, hope you enjoy the tune man these boxes make a big difference for sure

The one very important aspect you didn’t mention is do you need to change the spark plugs to one step colder running the TDI box ?

Would love to see rear camera footage when the car's kicking out or when you're on throttle.. nice vid as always man keep it up :)

TDi Tuning seems to really know their stuff. Decided to see where they are located and turns out they are 5mins drive from my work 😂 don’t think a tuning box would make much difference to my E220 Taxi Edition though 😂

Cars are just beautifle thing's. Especially bmw's

16:14 Emma's got a voice of a angel! Lol I'm dead bro

For the price of that box you could get a live map anyway. But for Ricky it works with warranty etc. But if you don’t need to worry about that then just take it to a decent tuner.
