You have to be more specific. What tuning box is it? Where does it connect to? What does it do? What kind of sensors does it need? Don't know how to help you with the info you have given us.

Apologies... put the post up while doing a couple of other things simultaneously.

It's a racechip box for the 35d engine so needs connecting to the boost and common rail sensors.

I've got the rail sensor but not 100% sure on the boost sensor.

Sorry: first time I have uploaded photos. I hope you can see them alright. The photos were sent by Racechip after they had sent me the wrong photos. I found it tricky to do as the sensor plug is almost directly below the windscreen and has a very stiff felt-like material and insulating moose. I ended up cutting away a small amount of moose to gain access and was still only able to push the connectors together with finger of one hand.
