Diesel performance

Has any tried adding a performance chip on the Mercedes Diesel in a Melbourne? Everything I’ve read has been very positive but I would prefer to hear from somebody that has experience with performance upgrades. Thanks

Are you having issues going up hills or just want better performance overall? I don't have the specs handy but you can down-shift when you are running a little sluggish or going up hill. Look at the RPMs needed for max torque and HP and down shift when needed. I don't know what Canadian laws are but you could be opening a can of worms going with a tune if you get caught.
