TMC should be easy for you to fit. Everyone seems to find it easy enough.

Hi, I have fitted them in the past, Daron had mine on in about 20mins including a wee chat as he went ;-) fairly easy to follow have ago just REM as you disconnect the battery to keep your keys in your pocket and out of the car ;-)

anyone got a video of what its like with it fitted? so i can see the boost guage as heard it boosts to 1.2 which woud actually be 1.4.

Also in stop start traffic will this use up more fuel or would this only be when booting it?

as at the mo my car is only doing high 20mpg which is terrible compared to the stated combined 42.8mpg. where the hell did they get this from as i aint seen this. with driving like a gran i have been able to average 30mpg but its sooooo boring

also does this TMC box have a dial where you can choose how much power you want from it? if so any pics?

yes it has a dial with settings of 1 - 9 .
1 is off i think
6and 7 is 160-165bhp and no one has any issues with limp mode and every one uses this setting
8 and 9 put some a500's into limp mode and cut power

just get one and leave it on setting 6 and you will have no problems at all  :thumb:
