Just fitted my 38bhp chip and although ive yet to take the van on a good run ,just taking it around the block it feels a lot faster and the van seems to be running as before no smoke or anything will take van on good run in a few weeks to euro lambretta in germany and then a quick tour around northern italy so fingers crossed.Thanks once again to studioman for his advice.

It's all in the mind. These plug in chips are rubbish.

Just my own thoughts you realise

Insider, I'm interested to know if you have driven a van chipped in this way? Or is your opinion not based on an actual hands-on experience?
