My 2012 245 PS Allroad is now 3 years old and out of warranty, so I have started thinking of releasing a bit more oomph from the engine. I like the idea of the Bluefin as you can remove the remap if you want, and if not happy with it you can reverse the procedure and get your money back. Not cheap at £500, but the gains according to their graph look pretty decent.

http://www.mybluefin.co.uk/curves/3.0TDI 245PS 500Nm.pdf (http://www.mybluefin.co.uk/curves/3.0TDI%20245PS%20500Nm.pdf)

Slightly confused as from standard, the engine is 'supposed' to produce peak torque from as low as 1400rpm, but the graph shows otherwise.

Anyway, my reason for posting is, has anyone got the Bluefin (particularly on a later 3.0 Tdi) and if so, are you happy with it?

Cheers.

Not tried the Bluefin but have driven several cars fitted with the CDR2+ box from DTUK. Increase to 285PS and 600Nm for the 3.0TDI, have a chat with Andrew or Stuart who may point you in the right direction.

Check for your local revo dealer, they can put the map on your car for 5 hours or so of driving time so can really try before you buy, they also sell units so you can install/de install as you wish

Revo maps put out 280-295bhp for £400
