Diesel Tuning Revisited

[evilweasel]

I know that there was somewhat of a flurry of posts re diesel tuning kits some many months ago - especially after TTE quite publicly put together an IS220d TTE, reported all over the web. I personally am still interested in the idea, especially when considering the slow revving nature of the engine and the apparent lack of bang per buck in terms of fuel consumption (I'm used to sub 40's now)...

Anyway this is the response from TTE when I registered my interest..

Hello Mr. X,

thank you for your inquiry.

Unfortunately we do not have a performance kit for your model available and cannot promise if we will introduce it.

But we try to finish the development with success.

If you are still interested please contact me end of summer again.

Kind regards,

Toyota Motorsport GmbH

I really would like this kit to be brought to market by TTE because of lack of warranty implications when fitted but it doesn't look likely to happen - however in the meantime has anyone had any experience of third party tuning kits and their performance increases on 220d's?
