Will all that performance effect the diesl engine in the winter?

Yeah, it'll give it more power with the cold air :)

So I shouldn't have any problems starting it?

Just make sure to use the anti-gel stuff in the winter. Ask Andrew at Concept1 and he'll be able to tell you everything you need to do and what it's going to take to get it through winter properly.

Diesel engines are a little different to tune:
- An exhaust will net you minimal gains - not really worth it.
- Chipping is a worth while mod
- Bigger injectors are key to creating more power

Beyond that, you're looking into upgrading your turbo.
