You can't polish a turd - but you can roll it in glitter.

Hi,

Don't think chipping or remapping the ECU is possible with the bongo, it has mechanical fuel pump etc so not same as modern diesels.

Van Akken near bracknell used to do an optimisation of the fuel system on older cars that may help but not sure if they still do and how expensive.

What engine are you on about?

As above...

Most diesel Bongos can't be chipped as the ECU doesn't control injection.
