Did you get it of ebay by any chance? I wouldnt fit it mate if i where you, theres so many people that have had big problems after fitting them. Save up and get it mapped is my advice.

Tuning boxes arent all bad.
On my last car i used one, and it was ok. Power and torque were up and it didn't smoke too bad. Over all it was a reasonable mod for the cost, but not quite enough. I sold the box and got a remap instead and it was better. More power, more torque and no smoke. Cost a bit more, but the increase was worth it, so IMO i pay the extra for a map on all cars.
Just don't try fitting it to a car with a map on or you will have big problems.

get rid of that box mate! they are very shite! i know someone who had used one and because he had such bad overfuelling and running rich it caused all sorts. I am assuming its from e-bay? Have you looked into the company who makes them?
