    I'm thinking about adding a tune-up box (don't know what else to call
    them, those electronic box of tricks that alter the ECU) to my 307
    DTurbo (110 bhp HDi engine), and I was wondering if anyone had any
    experiences with them.

    There seem to be two models which fit the bill; Van Aaken and Tunit.
    Both around the same price and offering about the same increase in bhp
    & torque. Does anyone have any experience with either, and which is
    better?

    Van Aaken have a very good reputation. I dunno anything about Tunit. Also
    have a word with Allard http://www.allardturbosport.co.uk/ - they've been
    tuning diesels for yonks.
