  • DTUK CRD2 and Pedal Box

    I've just received these in the post, after buying them second hand on ebay.

    Mrs is at work and baby is in bed, so I'm going to have to wait until tomorrow bow to fit it.

    I'm just interested to hear other people's experiences of the two boxes, in particular when used together.

    They're supposed to be really good.

    I'm interested in what you think when fitted as I'm considering them myself

        How do we stand with a pedal box and Vauxhall warranty?

        So much I'd like to do but Vauxhall warranty until end of June, then a 2 year full motor depot warranty starts. And I know they honour nearly everything so don't want to fit anything to change that.

          Matt, my understanding is that the boxes are undetectable once removed. So should you have any warranty issues, just take the box out and go see your dealer.. Once sorted, put the box back on.

              Post some installation pics if you can, and results after fitting. Not spending money on a remap or tuning box as it's the 170 gains are minimal. But smoother and faster throttle response could be good.

                I've fitted the box and my initial thoughts are unsure. I can tell it's different and better than standard but I'm not sure I can really tell the difference between each setting to find the best set up. You have 3 maps, each with 7 possible settings. That's 21 variations to try and find the best fit.

                And thats before I add the pedal box which itself has 3 maps with 3 settings.

                I'm going to at this a while! If anyone else has one and can advise on their findings I'd be really interested.

                    Got some lovely wheelspin this morning with the box set on Map 1+3, and the pedal box on sport+ +3.

                      Pedal box is amazing and just sharpens up the throttle. No reason why anyone would ever know it was fitted.

                      Best thing I ever bought for the insignia.
