I'm sure one of the oil burner experts will be along soon but if you're going to chip an Auto then budget a gearbox change too... To an AR35 ;) ;)

My TD (2.5) is chipped. It was like it when I brought it off The Boy.
After the initial 2 second auto gearbox delay it pulls like a train and I think it is pretty quick, probably in 1.8/2.0 Vectra class of quick. I have unofficially done a 0-60 on it and it was coming it at just over 9 seconds, after the 2 second delay was taken out of the equation, you just have to learn to judge when the lights are about to change!!!
On a 230 mile drive today of which about 100 miles was motorway, the trip computer said I averaged 48.6 mpg which in my opinion is bloody impressive for a big automatic motor fully loaded with my family and all that goes with them!!!!
