Who has chipped their TD6?

Was it worth it? How much difference did it make?

Thanks! Current fleet:
BMW 330Ci M-Sport coupe - daily driver and long distance cruiser
Range Rover Classic Vogue SE (3.9 V8 on LPG, soft dash model with EAS) - weekend car and generally uneconomical runabout
Suzuki GSX-R750 K6 'Stealth' - trackdays and high speed touring!

Wanted:
Either FF Range Rover Td6 or Range Rover Sport TDV6 - can't decide!

Scotland 2005 Range Rover Vogue Td6 Oslo Blue

Our 2005 FFRR TD6 Vogue has been re-mapped to 215bhp with 400nm of torque & drives like a dream. Plenty of grunt & instant throttle response. It certainly helps with the fuel economy as well, its quite easy to get 27/8 mpg on a run without even trying. I'm sure I could nurse more out of her, but I enjoy using the extra performance.

Excellent stuff - so my dislike for the standard Td6 engine may now be a deal breaker after all!

How much was the remap, who did it and did it require a rolling road to be setup?

It was a rolling road setup & cost £200 inc VAT, so I could see the improvement as the work was done. The original bhp output cam up on the screen as 177bhp so that was a surprise to begin with but it felt a bit laclustre but with the remap she's a far more urgent car. The pickup in particular is the most impressive part.
