Default Diesel tuning boxes

I'm considering one of these for my 2.0HDi Berlingo van. I'm not after maxxing it out and leaving clouds of black smoke behind me as it needs to be reliable. They seem to cost between £100 (I expect this to be crap) and £400. Does anyone have experience of these boxes and some helpful info for me, perhaps a recommendation? £200ish seems reasonable for this kind of thing to me.

Thanks, unfortunately they are one of the few who don't list a box for my van (2.0HDi 90hp with Bosch ecu on a 56 plate).

i can vouch for dtuk aswell, had one of their tuning boxes on my cdti 150 and it went like stink, no smoke, better mpg .... but eventually my gearbox and flywheel blew to bits lol ... the extra torque was too much for the standard components!
