    HPD actually notes in regards to this housing that it is not suitable for unchiped vehicle.

    I run one without the chip but I manipulate MAF voltages via JDVM unit and it is a pain to set up right with the HPD housing, very intermittent and inconsistent due to ambient temps and easily limps on aggressive settings in colder weather especially....

    I've regretted the purchase a long time ago...the airbox lid and cobra intake hose are good mods but the housing requires a chip and tuning on dyno to get the best out of it.

    Cheers
    Soooo why not put a chip in? Ill have a DP chip up for sale soon.
    Didnt know about the no chip issue thing though....

    My "professional" disease will not let me stomach a diesel chip especially DP variety. I'll take full ECU custom tune/map however, like Land Rover Defender remap though. Sadly Bosch and Nissan wonkers have made sure that is not possible....

    What! No signal fudger?


    I did the same and avoided the chips until remapping became available for the CRD's.

    Yes I have, "sigh"

    Nope it can't be remaped! Bosch made it that way, non erasable flash ROM.
