Spider Diesel Tuning Box
We never got around to installing it because he's old school and doesnt really understand engine tuning ect and doesnt want to do anything that he thinks could mess up his warranty.
I dont know any one with another Diesel merc and Spider wont accept a return because he doesnt want it. So i dont have many options here.
Id like to get most of my money back but really i would be happy with US$550 inc postage.
Here is the info on the Tuning Box...
Its a Spider Tuning Box with carbon cover from the UK. You can go to the official website here http://www.dieseltuning.co.uk
It comes with a 5year warranty on the Box its self and 1yr warranty on your Engine and drive train straight from the company!
Its suitable for most of the diesel line up that uses the bosche common rail and is fully self programming when you plug it in and let it do its thing. Will increase performance substantially and decrease fuel consumption while cruising. It can go from performace mode to economy mode alsmot instantly without the driver noticing.
Easy plug and play technology, customizable power settings (for either more power or less power depending on your car). Non detectable once removed from car, so you dont have to worry about going in for a service ect just unplug it and the car goes back to stock mapping.
Comes in original box + warranty info from Spider UK, protective cover (to cover the box in the engine bay). Ive attached some pics.
Here is alot of copy paste from the website
