i was thinking more of a air filter and dump valve to keep the lag down, it only seems to spool up after 3k revs, geat for ecomany but not for getting from a to b.

Don't worry about dump valves, diesels don't have them and don't need them 'cos they don't have a throttle butterfly.
Basically, you have to chip them because most turbo diesels already run high boost to keep emissions down -- so the only way is to up the fuelling.
You could try a tuning box too -- check sites like www.tunit.co.uk to see if they have one for your car.
