ok yan mga ecu upgrade kc it not only gives u more horsepower but also fine tunes the engine,,ive used a similar ecu upgrade on my fort and ive been using it since january..ive experience fuel mileage gains..ala tlgang side effect sa mkina..also same din tyo na still searching for more power..my last power upgrade for my fort is a boost cooler which is a water methanol injection..applicable sya for all turbo charge diesel..with or without an intercooler..very safe kc may boost sensor,,manufacturer claimed of 30-90hp depending sa mixture mo ng meth,,manufactured in the usa..tpos load sensing sya with an on -off switch..tried it my fort and lakas tlga humatak..d2 p lng kmi sa davao ng ddistirbute..if enterested pm me nlng...![]()
That's great. Did you check whether the methanol mix corrodes the injectors? Fort is D4D is commonrail, right? I have heard some watchouts with these cooling injection systems. Did you do an ECU remap or just a piggyback chip?
I have a piggyback and my experience is great fuel economy when running e.g. highway but more guzzling when stuck in traffic.
D-Tech Common Rail Power is a power enhancing tuning device suitable for all current models of Common Rail Diesel engines. Impressive increase in horsepower and torque. which greatly improves drive ability and in some cases even reduces fuel consumption. Horsepower gains can be as high as 20%. D-Tech works within the original Engine Management System's (ECU) mapped parameters and the maximum achievable power gains depend on the tolerance range within the OEM computer.
The fact that D-Tech works within the OEM manufacturers limits, ensures that at no point the engine is being over-stressed and this also guarantees trouble free long term use because the fuel system is still working within safe limits. The maximum fuel pressure is at no point exceeded. D-Tech comes pre-mapped for specific engine models
By using D-Tech, the fuel pressure is altered in the following way:
Idle (factory standard setting): Pressure 250 bar
Idle (D-Tech tuned): Pressure 250 bar No increase
Lower mid range (factory): Pressure 450 bar
Lower mid range (D-Tech ): Pressure 680 bar increase 230 bar
Mid range (factory): Pressure 700 bar
Mid range (D-Tech): Pressure 890 bar increase 190 bar
Top end (factory): Pressure 1180 bar
Top end (D-Tech): Pressure 1180 bar No increase

good news we dyno'd our 2.5d4d innova and it increased hp by 17% will post the dyno graph asap.
sir after installing parang mas gumaan yun kotse. 4 sale na ang D-Tech. will post po mga dealers namin.
sir our first customer was a 3.0 fortuner and the owner was so happy that after 2 days called us up again and he wants to install D-tech to his 2.5 fortuner. he was happy with the increase of power.next week yun innova niya na 2.5 naman daw lalagyan.. araw araw po siya highway kaya sobrang tuwa siya sa power ng D-TeCH![]()
Increased fuel pressure? Wouldn't this affect fuel consumption as well?
meron bang long term guarantee ito? baka magkaroon ng problema in the long run?
*mazdamazda sir kung lagi kang wot sir mas malaks talaga pero sir kung eco driving ka mas efficient po kasi sir after installing D-tech ma feel mo mas maaga dumadating yun power eh. so kunting tapak accelerate na po kagad
*bluebimmer sir we give 1 yr warranty for our product iam been using it for 3-4months now. its been through alot when we were testing the product bringing the car everywhere its been in race tracks doing hot laps and we try to drag it to other cars highway driving and always WOT and city traffic in the middle of the hot sun the punishment this car has been through the brake pads of the car just lasted 4000km!!
after all that the car is still performing great giving smooth power delivery.
Turbo diesels are great bases for engine performance hop-ups. It is so easy to get 20 - 30% more power without major modifications. Diesel injection is one of the parameters often tweaked by tuners. There are 3 components (of diesel injection) that can be altered to deliver more power. 1. Injection timing, 2. Injection duration and 3. Injection pressure. The easiest but not the safest method is #3. More sophisticated programming and testing is needed to do #1 & #2.
Just remember a key monitoring device for these modifications is a pyrometer. The tuner should carefully monitor Exhaust Gas Temperatures (EGT). There have been instances when dangerously high EGTs are generated by the additional fueling (and there was no black smoke emitted from the exhaust). Left unmonitored, this will damage your turbo and your engine.
Where was DTec developed? If Europe, is it TUV rated? I saw the previous post and it seems DTec is employing #3 method for enhanced fueling. Remember, these add-ons warranty their devices NOT your engines. It would be great if we could also see EGTs vs. rpms.
MM - Based on the shared data and assuming a lot of other things are constant (driving style, ambient temperature, diesel quality, etc.), I think the DTec might give improved economy at part throttle on highway driving (almost constant speed). But it would be more diesel guzzling at stop and go conditions. At WOT, there might be no difference since the fuel rail pressure is the same.
