Is Turbochip any good

Made a phone call today enquiring about turbochip. The dealer suggested I ask you guys what you think of the TDV6 with the remap? Is the rrs any quicker? Better mid range?? Fuel??

Worth the money??

Scotland 2009 Range Rover Sport TDV8 HSE Stornoway Grey

Had my car chipped by TurboChip just over a year ago.......it really made a difference to both acceleration and reducing turbolag. Interestingly, it also made the throttle pedal more responsive, which was a definate plus.

Can certainly recommend it. I get about 550 miles on long motorway drives to Scotland per tank and about 350 round about London. I don't know how that compares with non-chipped cars as I've forgotten what I was getting before the car was improved!
