    Tdi tuning box info needed

    Hi,can anyone recommend a good tuning box for my 2002 a4 b6 2.5 v6 tdi? I've never had any experience with this type of tuning and just wondered if they make the claimed figures nm/bhp wise. Or would it be better to go to someone like darkside development for a remap? Cheers

    New shock absorbers orded

    Update! Having a bit of a nightmare with this..I've been down to Audi and got them to order part number 8E0 513 033L listed as (gas filled shock absorber/for sports-type running gear)to compare the AF and L. I've been told it will take up to 6 days to arrive from Germany...So the wait goes on.
