Does anyone here have any experience of using these things ?
Thinking of buying and fitting one, seem too good to be true

From my mates experience.....make sure you either know what your doing or get the thing fitted and set up by someone who definitely does.
My mate had a Skoda Octavia "Superb" and had some monkey 'remap' it and replace the engine management chip with an uprated one....
His car went like a bullet for about a year before the pistons just about melted solid and the whole thing seized up with a bang.
I'm no expert but the guy we know who has a clue reckoned the monkey had replaced it's original power curves with massively higher ones during the remap and consequently had set the engine to put out (for arguments sake) 300lb of torque to something that was only ever designed to put out 200b....resulting in severe engine wear and massively reduced lifespan.
