Racechip or DTUK (DTE) for 40d?

Evening folks.

Has anyone tried a tuning box on the 40d engine? I've had tunes from the likes of DMS before but the ECU remains locked for now on my model year, so a box it is.

In the U.K. the choice is pretty much DTUK (rebranded DTE boxes) or Racechip. Both cost roughly the same and offer similar gains, just interested to hear whether anyone has any direct experience with either?

Cheers

Locked via OBD but any reputable tuner will tune on bench no issue

Yeah didn't fancy an ECU out job on a brand new car, but aware you pay to play with boxes as well if something were to go pop.

I settled on the DTUK box in the end, until someone cracks via OBD.
