Above is the site for race chip tuning box for linea MJD 1.3.
I want to get it installed it in my car..

1) Is it advisable?

2) Is there a better tuning box than this? e.g Petes (that costs 28000 whereas this one costs 11000 if purchased online from germany)

3) Is it better to go for a remap than tuning box?

Suggestions are welcome and thanks in anticipation :0

From what I can see on the website looks like they have a rail pressure unit. I dont think IM boxes exist for the 1.3 MJD engine - if they do then they are definitely better then the rail pressure ones.

Ripper ran both a box and a few remaps on his 1.3MJD (Swift)- you may want to check with him.

Manas - I have used this box and I will say stay clear of it. Remap is much better option than any so called tuning box. If you need, I have one lying in my boot for the 1.3 MJD, but I will still say do not use the box.
