[QUOTE="grubstake, post: 453800, member: 4012"] Clearly, your issue (and that of the other BT50 owners mentioned), is [u]turbo lag[/u] rather than a lack of power. I'm not a mechanic, but I don't see how any after-market chip is going to make your turbo spool up faster - that's an engine/turbo design issue. Volkswagen's solution to turbo lag, is to fit their small petrol engines with both a supercharger AND a turbo, with the supercharger giving an immediate boost until the turbo gets up to speed. I have no idea whether that is a practical aftermarket solution for a Mazda diesel though. [/QUOTE]
