Banshee has one and says it's awesome

But
what is it?
How does it work?
Where to get one?
Are they safe?

Mines a 2002 2.7 tdi
 
The old plug & play tuning boxes are very hard to get these days, they just plug into the wiring between the pump & No1 injector IIRC as they have plugs that match the Nissan wiring harness so no soldering needed:thumb2

Very Very hard, and this one is one of the later ones with a USB port so you can play around with different settings :O

Last one I saw of these sold for £120
 
As promised here's a pic of it in place, slots nicely behind the battery actually, one longer cable also stretches around the front of the engine as there is one wire to the MAF as well, I've cable tied it to the existing wiring that goes around the front of the engine

All I know is..... it's fast now

I kept up with a Merc G Wagen V8 off the lights through 1st and 2nd gear the other day :clap
 
Oh you have that type Banshee you used to be able to get one that plugged between that connector so it could easily be removed with no traces it had ever been fitted Dinky had one on his MK3 T2 & by god did it shift:D

Left a disco TD5 standing from a few sets of lights the other month & a couple of days ago had some snob in a RR sport TD6 reving his engine trying to look down at us at the lights but he wasn't as cocky when the lights changed & I floored it & my wife said he had such a shocked look on his face as we pulled away from him but if turned to a look of fear when we hit the round about & used rear wheel steering:lol:lol
 
So totally different to maff amp then?

Which is better maf amp or tuning box
 
You can use them together but remember the maf amp is mainly making good poorly MAFs
OEM MAF + Power Chip = va va va voom :sly
Now, add some LPG and a modded turbo with some big ass I/C , straight through 2 1/2" zorst and then you have some tarmac shredding torque and I hope some shmokin' action :naughty

Yeah!! :sly and some shmokin' clutch too :augie
 
Any ideas where to get these chips from as I've just ordered a vauxhal maf for more low end grunt that was advised in a different topic that with raised boost and ideal power chip that should pull my vintage tractor on a trailer happily and supprise a few on the road but where are these power boxes hiding
 
Has anyone got any experience on the tuning chip that plugs in to the OBD port? Looks too simple to be true, especially for £120....

I've always been told to stay away from these as they are cheap junk that don't work correctly
 
My 3.0 has a chip express box fitted - I haven't driven a 3.0 without the box, but I do know I can surprise a lot of people from the lights, and my son screams like a girl if I boot it :)
