Default 2009 D5 V50 tuning

As per my previous (1st ever) post I am awaiting delivery of my RDesign D5.

I currently have another "low flying" Swedish car fitted with a module by Diesel Tuning (UK). Very happy after a few teething tweaks. I now see they manufacture a "Spider" evolution which has become far more advanced in the way it controls fuel & mapping etc.

They quote power & torque will change as below

V50 2.4 D5 180ps > 218ps 350Nm > 450Nm

with an average saving of 6 mpg under normal driving conditions.

Has anyone had any experience of the Spider or any other system?

One other question - Do after market air filters / induction kits offer similar gains to their unleaded counterparts?

Regards

HeliFella
