After speaking to them for a while via email and phone, I decided instead of a remap that I was going to go for the tuning box to try it out.
Had one of their engineers fit it for me whilst I waited and had a cup of tea

As you can see from the before and after photos the box and wiring is hid away very well.
Was advised to leave the box on programme 4 for atleast 20 miles to let it settle in and then decide which programme I want to use. 1-3 are the more economic settings, 4 being the mid setting and 5-7 being the more for performance settings.
I will hopefully end up putting it on a rolling road to see the outcome figures but hopefully should get a figure around the 195bhp mark on setting 7 so thats around a 47bhp increase.
One thing I did like with using TDI Tuning is that if I decide to get a new car I can remove the box and wiring, and get new wiring and the box re-programmed to my new car for a fee of around £100, which to me is very reasonable.
Ill post a few updates once ive started to find out how its feeling from driving etc so far upon driving for a few miles on setting 4 I can feel an improvement, but need to go on a bit of a longer drive to see how it proper performs and then increase the settings.
Other then that the people I have dealt with in the team have been wicked to deal with, very polite and professional (compared to other companies, no names) and would highly recommend them for this reason.
