Following the release of their conversion for the lower output Transporter earlier this year, world ECU remap leader Superchips has now introduced a product for the most powerful version in the range, using the 204PS BiTDI version of the 2.0 turbo-diesel engine.

Using the latest Delphi engine management, the bi-turbo diesel engine leaves the factory with 204PS but the Superchips remap adds significantly to both power and torque. Power increases by 40BHP at 3966rpm while torque – arguably more beneficial for a light commercial vehicle – grows by an even more impressive 73Nm at 4051rpm. The full power and torque curves can be seen on the website listing for the vehicle at the bottom of this page.

Examination of the torque curve reveals a broad increase across the whole RPM range, with more torque than the stock figure until over 4000rpm, creating a smoother and more refined driving experience as well as gains in fuel economy of up to 7% – a huge benefit for the light commercial fleet, providing potential cost reductions when driven in a comparable manner.

The conversion can be performed by one of Superchips’ highly skilled nationwide dealers, at an RRP of £399 including labour and VAT. The remap is covered by Superchips’ industry-leading 12-month/30,000-mile warranty.*

Global ECU remap leader Superchips has launched another conversion for the Ford turbocharged petrol engine, the EcoBoost. It now offers a significant performance upgrade for models using the 1.0-litre version of the engine as fitted in the latest M8 Fiesta

The Euro6-specification engine leaves the factory with either 100PS, 125PS or 140PS and the Superchips remap can be applied to all manual equipped versions, resulting in almost the same peak power for all three variants. For example, the 140PS variant pictured above outside our HQ during development gains an extra 24BHP and 52Nm.

The full power and torque curves can be seen by clicking the following link:

In addition to outright gains in both power and torque, the curves show that the Superchips remap provides the biggest increase in the mid-RPM range, right where it’s most useful. Not only will the car now be more driveable with its additional torque, it will also feel smoother on the road.

The conversion can be carried out by owner themselves, using Superchips’ Bluefin device, at a normal RRP of £399 including VAT.

With a Bluefin, users don’t need any mechanical or technical skills, simply plug the Bluefin handset into the diagnostic port (connecting to the vehicle’s Electronic Control Unit) and follow the on-screen instructions.

Alternatively, it can be performed by one of Superchips’ highly skilled nationwide dealers, at a cost of £365 including labour and VAT.

The remap is covered by Superchips’ industry-leading 12-month/30,000-mile warranty.*

Drivers of Mercedes models using the company’s successful two-litre turbo petrol engine can now enjoy improved performance and thanks to this addition to the Superchips portfolio.

The global ECU remap leader has introduced a conversion which adds to the engine’s already impressive 184PS output when used in the W212 E-Class, as well as other models through the range.

The Superchips remap increases power by 68bhp at 4755rpm and torque by a very impressive 101Nm at 4672rpm.

This combination improves driveability with the additional torque at the lower and middle of the engine’s rev range while the increase in power provides benefits in acceleration for safer overtaking and more relaxed cruising.

The full power and torque curves can be seen by clicking the following link:

Owners of cars from the BMW range of 28i engines, using the two-litre, turbocharged four-cylinder petrol engine can now enjoy significant gains in performance, thanks to the latest conversion from global ECU remap expert, Superchips.

BMW F36 428i Gran Coupe

The engine, fitted with Bosch management and found in the Z4, X1, X3, X4, 228i, 328i, 428i, and 528i vehicles, leaves the factory with a healthy 245PS. However, the Superchips remap adds a very impressive 50bhp at 6579rpm and 84Nm torque at 2553rpm.

The full power and torque curves can be seen by clicking the following link:

http://www.superchips.co.uk/curves/20iN20B20245PS.pdf

Not only does the Superchips conversion demonstrate increases across the engine’s rev range, it also holds on to torque far longer and at a much higher level than the original engine. This means a significant improvement in performance, with acceleration greatly improved.

The conversion is carried out by one of Superchips nationwide dealer network and typically takes around an hour. Customers can either wait at the dealer or drop off their car and return later to collect. The cost of the remap is £399 including VAT and labour. The conversion is covered by Superchips’ 12-month/30,000-mile warranty*.

Trafic and Vivaro – Single turbo coverage now available

Following the release of its remap for the Vauxhall Vivaro/Renault Trafic BiTurbo 1.6CDTi/dCi 120/140PS models, world ECU remap leader Superchips has now introduced a conversion for the single turbo variant with 90 and 115PS.

Trafic

Running on Bosch management, the turbo diesel engine leaves the factory with 90- or 115PS but the Superchips remap adds significantly to both power and torque. The 90PS car conversion adds 45BHP and 89Nm at most, and the 115PS adds 22BHP and 52Nm. This extra torque allows significant extra punch from the low-capacity engine, which helps when carrying heavy loads or towing and provides a useful saving on fuel too.

The full power and torque curves can be seen by clicking the links below:

http://www.superchips.co.uk/curves/VivaroSingle90PS.pdf

http://www.superchips.co.uk/curves/VivaroSingle115PS.pdf

The position of this huge increase in torque, at the lower to middle of the engine’s rev range, is exactly where drivers will notice it most, adding significantly to the vehicle’s pulling power. In addition, the added output from the engine mirrors the original power and torque curves perfectly, meaning the on-road characteristics of the power delivery remain unchanged – only with much greater amounts.

In addition, drivers and operators can expect to see gains in fuel economy of up to 7% – a huge benefit for the light commercial fleet, providing potential cost reductions when driven in a comparable manner.

The conversion can be carried out by owner themselves, using Superchips’ Bluefin device, at a cost of £359 including VAT.

With a Bluefin, users don’t need any mechanical or technical skills, simply plug the Bluefin handset into the diagnostic port (connecting to the vehicle’s Electronic Control Unit) and follow the on-screen instructions.

Alternatively, it can be performed by one of Superchips’ highly skilled nationwide dealers, at a cost of £320 including labour and VAT. The remap is covered by Superchips’ industry-leading 12-month/30,000-mile warranty.*

Owners of cars from the BMW range, using the two-litre, turbocharged four-cylinder petrol engine can now enjoy significant gains in performance, thanks to the latest conversion from global ECU remap expert, Superchips. Previously we’ve seen remap conversions for the 20i and 28i, and now we complete the family with the 18i, 156PS variant.

BMW Z4

The engine, fitted with Bosch management and found in the Z4 and X1, leaves the factory with a detuned 156PS. Because the power is artificially restricted, the conversion makes some astonishing figures. The Superchips remap adds a very impressive 121bhp at 6277rpm and 132Nm torque at 6070rpm.

The full power and torque curves can be seen by clicking the following link:

http://www.superchips.co.uk/curves/E89Z418i.pdf

Not only does the Superchips conversion demonstrate increases across the engine’s rev range, it also holds on to torque far longer and at a much higher level than the original engine. This means that the power curve also continues to climb past the original engine’s maximum level, which is reached at just 2500rpm. The remap is specifically designed to drive in a similar fashion to a big naturally aspirated engine – driveability and reliability are key. This means a significant improvement in performance, with acceleration greatly improved, but not at the expense of driving feel and throttle response.

The conversion is carried out by one of Superchips nationwide dealer network and typically takes around an hour. Customers can either wait at the dealer or drop off their car and return later to collect. The cost of the remap is £399 including VAT and labour. The conversion is covered by Superchips’ 12-month/30,000-mile warranty*.
