Racechip plug and play type thingys I did find had a noticiful affect on my 3 ltr diesel but nothing to rave about. On a 2•2 probably less so. Bi-turbocharged tuning or twin turbo set up would be better I guess. There's company's that swap out truck engines and stick V8 Chevi engines in Thailand if you really want to fly. ???? 1 1
Popular Post OneMoreFarang Posted August 25, 2022 Popular Post Posted August 25, 2022 I can give you advice from the view of a motorcycle rider. Install a big and loud exhaust. You will instantly know that your vehicle is faster and accelerates faster. Ask all the boys with little loud bikes and they will confirm this. ???? 1 3

Gweiloman Posted August 25, 2022 Posted August 25, 2022 I have a 2011 Ford Ranger 2.2 XLT. Can cruise at 140kph on the highway which would bag me lots of speeding tickets. Why bother with unnecessary mods?
pedro01 Posted August 25, 2022 Posted August 25, 2022 I presume these are the things that cause some pick ups to kick out loads of dust every time the driver accelerates. Poisoning the population so you can get your 0-100 kph down from 16 seconds to 12 seconds is kinda pointless. It will be faster, but it won't be fast. 2

seedy Posted August 25, 2022 Posted August 25, 2022 Horsepower - too much is not enough All Grandpas can go back out to their mobility scooters Reminds me of a conversation in Southern Africa years. Our professional guide carried a 600 Nitro Express. A client asked him if he used this for everything. Guide said yes. Client ask why. Guide said because they don't make a 700.
Excel Posted August 25, 2022 Posted August 25, 2022 8 hours ago, pedro01 said: usually it's to do with organ size No, that's the reason for some people buying a pick-up in the first place. Performance mods indicate the small penis syndrome has not won over admirers so an over-fueled diesel performance upgrade is just a further step to impress others with all that black belching polluting smoke ????

Most diesel trucks are set at there best by manufacturers. A manual box will give you better overtaking speed although you can use most auto to do manual changes. If OP wants more power chop the 2•2 in for a 3•2.

When I’m driving on the roads, I’m not in a race. When I need to overtake another vehicle, I do so only when it’s safe, depending on the traffic situation and the vehicle that I’m driving. I have a 150cc scooter as well as a 1000cc bike. I’m able to overtake other vehicles safely on either bike. Ps: my scooter can’t reach 120kmh even when wind assisted ???? 1
bang saen guy Posted August 26, 2022 Posted August 26, 2022 Check ecuthailand.com He remaps ecus. Safer than chips imo. Also has dyno 1

jumbo Posted August 27, 2022 Author Posted August 27, 2022 Thanks guys Despite the frustrated replies from the usual suspects I got some good links ???? Anyway I prefer the plug and play chip and found a few nice links on the internet as well

If you need to 'boot it' for an overtaking maneuver, there probably wasn't enough space in the first place, no? Don't see how a chip can make any overtaking space any safer. Just encourages one to take greater overtaking risks. A bend is still a bend and the ever-diminishing gap is still ever-diminishing just a lot nearer or faster than before. 1

I think it's got more to do with a loose, empty sensation in their underwear. That and a penchant for black, sooty exhaust smoke and a grubby tailgate. 1
jumbo Posted September 4, 2022 Author Posted September 4, 2022 To keep the thread alive ???? found an alternate chip supplier.. I will test it and post when done After that we can all get together in our underwear?
kwonitoy Posted September 4, 2022 Posted September 4, 2022 https://www.racechip.de/ I used a chip from these guys on my old Toyota 3.0L. Made a very noticeable difference in power with no change in fuel consumption easy to install.
