Most people will say remap but ive been running a roverron synergy 1 tuning box for 12 months on my tdci sport with no problems and the car goes like stink with it on.
I did loads of research before buying it and they are supposed to be the bees nees of tuning boxes.
here is a link to his website but i bought mine off ebay second hand for 50 quid

I'd definitely suggest a proper remap rather than a plug in box. The box is a very crude way of tuning whereas a good remap will actually make the engine more efficient.

I've no doubt your car will feel faster with a box fitted, but I'd never even consider fitting one.
