TD5 Power Box Plug-In

Hi all

I'm still relatively new to the TD5 but after sorting out my factory Spot Light Relay problem, I found a loose black box tucked behind the engine bay fuse box with 'Power Box' and www.powerbox.cc etched into it.

I figure this to be some kind of Power/Torque plug-in and a contributing factor to poor MPG returns. I have been experiencing 23-27MPG. Can I simply remove the connector to this unit and bag/seal the loom or do I have to go far a complete removal? If it’s the latter, how would this have been connected, what to, would this be easy to remove and its second hand value?

Also, would it be worth removal if the MPG figures above are 'normal' for a TD5 on an auto box? I was toying with the idea of a Stage 1 Tune via TD5 Alive that would eradicate this plug-in. Any thoughts please?

Many thanks for your help.

I couldnt open the link u gave to see what kind of box u have......usually these kind of powerboxes have a switch on them which bypasses them or they have a multiplug connected to theyr wiring to be removable as to resume to the car's original setting. Anyway the powerboxes are connected in parallel on the injector wiring so if u remove it the engine must work as it did before the box was plugged.

take it to td5 alive they will remove it and set you up
