am about to order a syn 2-E and a pierburgh maf of ron myself, it dos'nt increase the bhp but it increases the torque. the idea is less gear changing the better the economy.

also some insurance companies will hike up your premium if you fit one of the boxes that increase the bhp, with the 2-E it should make no difference but check with your ins-comp first.

If I understand it correctly, you can use the normal Synergy 2 for the same purpose, plus you have the extra power options.

Fix a poor handbrake; DIY ABS diagnostic unit; Loan of the spanner needed to change the CDT belts; free OBD diagnostics +MAF; Correct Bosch MAF cheap; DVB-T install in an ex-hi-line system; DD install with a HK amp; FBH servicing.

I would not inform your insurance company as they will probably increase your premium and lets face it how would they know you have it fitted

Surely, it was on it when you bought it and as you never lift the bonnet consequently wouldn't have known if it was a modification or not..ahem...
