Ok the beginning i suppose….

As some of you will or will not know, most tuning boxes connect directly onto the common rail pressure sensor. Like re-maps these differ in price and quality and id like to think that the modules we use (manufactured by DTE Systems) are some of the best out there..

Around 8 months ago i heard about the new 2 Channel systems that Germany were working on and if im honest i was a little dubious. I suppose it was just because it was something new

Around 6 months ago i imported 2 of these 2 channel systems and started optimising the software on these new systems that we christened CRD-T..

These systems connect to the common rail and the turbo pressure sensor giving us even more control over what we do, and if i may be so bold.. take us a step closer to a re-map in a box..

6 months later and im more than happy with the recent results weve seen, and the feedback from customers has all been positive.. :thumsup:

In January of this year i noticed on our direct server link to DTE that there was a new system available. I made a phone call and found that this system had been developed by DTE specifically for the new Euro 5 engines, including the new Mercedes Blue Efficiency.

In a nutshell this system connects to the common rail, turbo pressure sensor and crankshaft sensor. Over the last few weeks ive noticed this system was becoming available for more and more vehicles including BMW and Audi/Seat.

Another phone call to Germany resulted in the MD of DTE coming over to us this week to show me how the system works, and how the new programming software is used

So in the last 8 months weve gone from a single channel module, to a 2 channel module, and then the latest 3 channel system.

Over the last 5 years ive been creating my own software for the modules, and im one of the few people outside of DTE Systems that has access to some of the programming options available to us

Anyway, back to this week and the new 3 channel system..

First up was our Seat Leon 2.0 TDI 170PS CR.

Weve recently rolling roaded this vehicle running a 2 channel CRD-T system where we saw 210bhp and 327lbft of torque

One of our guys, helped by Patrick set about installing the new 3 channel system on our Leon. Ill be honest the turbo sensor is bad enough to get to on the transversly mounted VAG 4 cylinder engines as it is, but the crankshaft sensor… OMG..

20 minutes later and the system was on, and Patrick plugged his laptop directly into the Module via our USB programmer…

Ive got to admit we were all gob smacked as this allows us to see everything thats going on inside the engine, the voltage at the various sensors, rpm, boost and a lot more.

We imported the software that we’d developed for the 2 channel module, and then went on our way..

This is what we see just before we load the software onto the laptop before writing this so the module..

In essence this module is able to control upto 7 channels if needed…

The main difference with this module is all to do with rpm, as we now have the ability to refine the files to an even greater degree. This is due to the fact that we can now increase and decrease the power band to wherever the customer wants the power..

Whilst on the road, we (not the consumer) have the ability to revert back to standard at a flick of a key, and again add the tuning…

Its fantastic for us as we can now offer a custom file writing service for customers who expect the very best :drool:

We can also use this 3 channel system to demo all 3 systems without the need to swap between the 3 various systems, thus giving the customer the choice as to how far he/she wants to go.

I suppose its a service re-mapping companies offer, i.e an off the shelf re-map, or a custom written file written specifically for their driving style.

Next came my 335d

We removed the CRD-T from my 335d (which recently produced 340bhp and 680nm of torque) and added the new 3 channel system

Again we took the car out, and OMG…. :confused0068::confused0068: What can i say, the car was so smooth, we then increased the power quite a lot over and above the CRD-T file above 2,000rpm, but then decrease it higher up the rev range keeping it withing safe limits for the DPF:thumbsup:

Sub 2,000 revs we cut the file back a little, and it did make the car feel so much more manageable..

My programmer will be here within the week and i intend to have a play with the 335d including trying to make a video.

Once ive got to grips with this system (wont be long) ill be taking the car back to the dyno so i can sit down and see exactly what results we can achieve..

I hope i havent bought you, but as you can probably see im rather excited as its the most technically advanced systems ive ever seen :thumbsup:

thanks for reading

Andrew

p.s if anyone fancies trying this system out youre more then welcome to pop up and see us

Over the years we have  rolling roaded 1.9CDTI Astra’s and have consistanlty seen results of over 200bhp from a car that starts its life as 148bhp..

Independant figures and feedback can be found here www.astraownersnetwork.co.uk

Yesterday we attended a Rolling Road event where 3 Astra were rolling Roaded..

1) Astra 1.9CDTI + CRD2 produced 196bhp

2) Astra 1.9CDTI + DTUK CRD-T produced 210bhp

The figures are only half the story as customers who are currently running our CRD2, and have tried the CRD-T have all commented that this system is a lot better..

Now im not saying our other systems arent good as they are, and have proven themselves time and time again..

But with CRD-T we raise the bar yet again..

Check out this thread

We will be conducting more rolling road testing within the next week or so.

Happy New Year from Everyone at DTUK

Weve consistantly seen over 200bhp and 320lbft of Torque from Vauxhall’s 1.9CDTI (150PS) so have been looking forward to seeing what we could gain from Vauxhall’s newest 2.0CDTI.

This new engine is from the same family as the 1.9, and yet again is a joint venture between GM and Fiat..

We published figures on our site a couple of months ago..

these were based on our experience with the 1.9CDTI and by the looks of it we were pretty close…

As the new buzz word is eco this, and eco that we decided to use Vauxhall’s answer to the VW Passat Bluemotion, their new Insignia ecoFlex.

Essentially the Ecoflex is a 158bhp 2.0-litre CDTi Insignia, but an army of now-familiar C02-slashing improvements have been swung into action.

What are these eco tweaks then?

These improvements include under-car panelling and a lower ride height to help the Insignia cut through air more cleanly (the drag factor falls from 0.27Cd to 0.26), plus lower rolling resistance Michelin tyres. There’s also a higher first and second gear ratio combined with a longer final drive to help keep the revs down and mpg up.

So, while peak power, the 135mph top speed and 8.9sec dash to 60mph remain apparently unchanged (but can they really be exactly the same with all those alterations, we wonder), the Ecoflex’s C02 tumbles from the CDTi’s 154g/km to 136g/km, while mpg climbs from 48.7mpg to 54.7mpg. That means some decent savings at the pumps, plus £25 in your pocket come tax disc time.

As ive previously mentioned, today was the day we’d been looking forward to..

The results after adding the DTUK Red System are as follows:

211.9bhp and 342.2lbft/462nm of Torque

well be posting the RR graph, as soon as we work out how to upload them

Oh yeah, back to the Insignia VXR and only 435nm of Torque and twice the running costs

Andrew

So we continued with the planned 1st DTUK installation video.

We decided to use my BMW as its a typical installtion which on a good day takes less than 5 minutes, what i’d usually say to customers is that this can take upto 30 minutes first time around, but once you’ve installed the kit once, you should be able to do this in less than 5 minutes.

Anyway, back to the video…

This should be added to the website before the end of the year, and is the first of many that we have planned throughout 2010.

So if your car fancies starring in a DTUK installation video then please get in touch

Not a lot more to say, other than to say thanks to Keith from TalentStar and Simon for being such a good sport lol

Ill post details in here once its been signed off and posted on site.
