I'm interested in a power upgrade too anyone who's done it give us some feedback on if its worth the money is it better or worse on mpg etc.
Also my c5 has 205 tyres and a sticker on the middle of drivers side door pillar which says 110bhp on it.
C5 HDI 110 or 90 how can I tell?

I had a P reg Nissan Primeval 2.0TD which I chipped (Tunit). I had to the way it crawled around was absolutely embarrasing!
Once I'd done it, it was like a different car. The hike in power was incredible. Low down torque was really impressive. Before I chipped it, it never had any torque!
Glad to get rid of that thing. Put me off Nissan's for life.

I bought my box from here - http://stores.ebay.co.uk/DIESEL-TUNING-UNITS
It's really improved the pick up from low revs which seemed very poor on my Xantia. I can't say that the power comes in with a surge but it does seem very torquey. I haven't been in any other HDi's so I don't know if mine was right to start with. I'm intending stripping off the inlet manifold and cleaning that out, checking the turbo piping and blanking the EGR valve with a plate. And replace the cambelt, etc.
