Pros, car much be better to drive, lag gone and makes the car what it should have been. Con, your insurer might not like it and will restrict choice.
Whoever you go for, youll get lots of pointers here, go for one that is well known. TorqTune (which I've got), Turbo Chip (had on SWMBO's D3), BAS (has a large faithful following here) or Superchip (not as many use that) to name four.

Had Torq Tune from TFC, highly recommended, makes teh car far more "driveable" and improves economy.

Turbopacs in Durham are very good although can be a little pricey

Just installed (last thursday) BAS remap (one of the site sponsors). As others have said, car feels more responsive, no lag, more push from the extra torque when it changes up. Dont know about better mpg just yet, slighty worse right now, but thats probably me just "testing" it
