330e with a tuning box - performance stats

So I've attached a tuning box and thanks to a local farmer in East Yorkshire I had a blast down his slightly rough WW2 air strip.

Do you have data for a comparison without the tuning box? Because this honestly doesn't tell me much.

I believe the 330e stock does 0-60mph in 5.6, so this is an improvement.

I wonder what tuning box, odd that the OP has not said.

So one second off? That's not bad at all.

I don't suppose you did or are planning to do a dyno with and without the box? I'd love to see some grahps.

thats excellent. Really need to use a Draggy to get properly accurate readings.

I'm planning on a rolling road test at some point to see the figures.

just took it for a 'spirited drive' and it opened the grill for the 1st time to get some air in its lungs.

How's the tuning box doing? Did you end up buying the dragy to measure the figures more accurately?

I've been looking at tuning boxes for my 330e, and I've narrowed it down to TDI-tuning and Racechip.

BelfastCol Do you feel any improvement in lower revs, any quicker than without the chip?

Did you get around doing a dyno run?

I have just installed a TDI Tuning box on my 330e (G21). Feels better but I'm not sure about the claimed gains...

Also, in the sports dash, the power gauge doesn't seem to go all the way up to the 320hp...anyone tried to have a look at that?
