Superchip upgrades for Ford Diesel
Superchips Ltd is renowned for modifying standard ECUs of cars to produce more power, better torque and greater fuel efficiency. Historically Superchips would only be found in modified cars, usually petrol heads looking to make their cars go faster.
Now Superchips Ltd has produced an ECU modification for the Ford 2.0 TDCi turbo diesel engine, this particular engine is very popular in the Ford line up and can be found in the Ford Galaxy, Ford Kuga, Ford Mondeo and the Ford Focus S-Max.
The ECU in the 2.0 Litre TDCi engine has been thoroughly analysed by Superchips, who identified significant performance enhancement possibilities within the models’ Delphi DCM3.5 ECU, which is easily accessed to allow a swift and painless installation.
With the modified ECU the Ford 2.0 TDCi engine model increases power by up to 22 bhp at 3301 rpm, endowing the Ford Galaxy, Ford Kuga, Ford Mondeo and Ford Focus S-Max with a sharper, more stimulating drive. The remap also sees an increase in the engine’s torque output, torque is increased by 89Nm, and this gain is reflected throughout the rev range.
Increased torque, power and driveability has not resulted in less miles per gallon, in fact the ECU remap may improve fuel efficiency due to the amount of torque available at the lower end of the rev range. For peace of mind the Superchips conversion is covered by a full Customer Service Guarantee and an industry-leading 12 month / 30,000 supplementary full vehicle warranty.
The ECU remap is available for the 2.0 litre TDCi versions of the Ford Galaxy, Ford Kuga, Ford Mondeo and Ford Focus S-Max produced from March 2010 onwards so, this modification can be done on a used Ford in Wales if the driver is looking for better driveability, power and fuel efficiency.
