Ive had two Td5 Fenders mapped. There is no downside.

My old 90 was done by Dynachip - a mobile service, ~£250 - was on a standars 90, no big intercooler, standard turbo, just blanked EGR. Went well, the added power was very welcome and modest, eventually added a larger IC. No downside what so ever, best £250 I spent on the 90.

My 110 I went a little further, well alot futher. Hybrid turbo, allisport intercooler, egr blank, uprated MAP and a TD5inside remap. It shifts.

The extra power is excellent and wouldnt own a stanard TD5 again. Only downside on this one is, its a tad smokey... but that is mainly because im at the limit of the current set up, actually looking to have the AFR adjusted to smoke less. I was distressing convertables in the summer haha

Overall it really depends in what you want. If you want a nice simple map that'll do then pick Dynachip, cant be faulted (just search this forum alone).

Wanna go for the most power (bigger turbk etc..) you can get, pick TD5inside (~£250), BAS, Alive (~£350+)

Hi, just wondered how you got on with your smokey TD5. Ive got a remapped disco that wont pass new emissions standard. I spoke to an engine specialist about it and he said straight away it was to do with remap. It goes like a train but wont pass an mot as it is. Im trying to find the best solution. Any insight you had on this subject would be appreciated. My initial thought is to have the remap reversed. I bought the car already remapped so dont really know exactly what was done (stage1)
