Any reviews of it? Did you see a noticeable power difference or any dyno tests? I am always unsure of tuning boxes.

A lad on here wrote a thread about the same box and his experience with it. Of course they would not replace a remap, however not everyone has £300 spare for one so personally I believe these boxes are a good mod for the price. As with everything the internet is full of know it alls slating them so look for some real world threads of peoples experiences.

I noticed that my automatic box changed a lot quicker and smoother, and depending what map I had chosen the power delivery and throttle response was a lot quicker. When I had it on sport map the car was over fuelling at low speeds so I changed it to a more appropriate map for town driving
