I have 'regular' ECU chip tuning from ABT, which was arranged through the dealership, so no 'box'.
Judging from your signature you seem to have that same ABT chiptuning. And did you add the box to that? Or do you have other parts from ABT like springs, wings, spoilers etc.?
I have always been wondering if I could 'double chiptune' my A2 by adding one of those silly boxes, but somehow I think that adding such an unrefined method of tuning (the box) could not be good for your car if you already have 'regular' chiptuning.
So what is your setup? Already 'abt chiptuned' without the box or not? I'm curious!

1st. 
I have only exterior tuning
2nd. the silly box it's just a silly box!!!!! Inside is only a 180ohm rezistor!!!!!!!! That "box-tuning" replace the dinamic rezitor from the lambda sensor for diesel temperature with a top "air flow speed"...
3rd. whe is cold outside, with that crap on, the rpm go up and low from 850 to 1100 until the diesel is warmer... So stupid!!! (Me also)
4rd. >>So what is your setup? Already 'abt chiptuned' without the box or not? I'm curious!

Hi Andrei,
Nice setup: your car must look great, although I do miss the 17" alu wheels a bit
As for the 'box': I know that they're generally just a resistor that fools the car into thinking that the diesel has a different temperature. And now that I read that your car starts behaving strangely with it, I know that I won't try it any time soon...!
