i would get a remap you dont want to start just upping the boost on its own as it will just chuck a load of black smoke out lol! diesel tuning is a lot different to petrol tuning in some aspects

Remapping seems to be the way to gain power on the diesel Focus and you can get some good gains. IIRC Superchips quote about 26bhp and 56lb/ft more torque for the 2,0 TDCi, not sure what gains you'd get on the TDDi.

try this it may help if not sorry http://www.tuningstyling.co.uk/tunin...tuning-styling

or this

DTK can be installed easily by yourself and is much easier than chip tuning or remapping of the ECU. If you want professional diesel performance the DTK is the best choice for your turbo diesel. Gain power and torque and also increase MPG. This is real do it yourself car tuning. The DTK offers the easiest installation available - see the tuning installation here.
