Alfa Romeo 147 Diesel Power Module 1.9 JTD M-JET Hatchback

HOW DOES THE DIESEL POWER PERFORMANCE SYSTEM WORK?

There is a lot of mis-information and market bred confusion as to how diesel performance systems work. Some make outrageous claims that are simply technically impossible. Below we will outline the function of a Diesel Power Module in plain English, allowing you to understand what it does and how it will benefit your vehicle.

The Diesel Power Module brand have two types of modules, single channel fuel rail modules and two channel fuel rail and boost pressure sensor modules.

The single channel fuel rail module is an interceptor module, it intercepts signals coming from the ECU going to the fuel injection rail and sends modified signals back to the ECU from the fuel rail.

MYTH: Some competitors claim that their fuel rail modules change engine timing. FALSE! A module that is installed downstream of the ECU cannot physically have any influence on the timing of a motor. The ECU has already calculated this information and sent it to the relevant control mechanisms.

Our modules work by:

• Directly influencing injector pressure which modifies the pulse width and cycle duration - German engineered technology speaks to the ECU with ACTIVE software management actively adjusting air fuel ratio based on engine load & RPM through the regulation of fuel pressure in the common rail fuel injection system. Fuel rail pressures modified by the module NEVER exceed the factory specifications of the motor, simply they increase the pressure or decrease the pressure based on what you are doing with the vehicle at the time. The engine diagnostic circuit would produce a check engine light if there was ever any running conditions that were outside of the manufactures specifications. Simply, the module will never harm your motor.

• Increasing airflow to the engine - turbo charger boost pressure increases earlier in the rpm range in response to the increased fuelling, this increase in airflow combined with improved fuelling allows much more efficient running conditions for the motor allowing increased driveability and performance from your vehicle.

• A vehicle producing more power at lower rpm saves fuel. Fuel efficiency is the bi-product of an engine that has increased torque at lower rpm when driven accordingly.

You will see some modules connect up to the individual injectors, this system is just an unnecessary and complicated method of achieving exactly what our Diesel Power Modules do by piggybacking the fuel rail plug, just making installation time longer and messier.

TWO CHANNEL FUEL RAIL AND BOOST SENSOR MODULE

The two channel fuel rail and boost pressure sensor module offers all of the features of the single channel module and works in the same way, but also offers direct modification of the boost signal which optimises air flow into the motor creating even more power and a smoother torque delivery. These modules are engineered specifically for individual motors, meaning tighter fuel mapping and better performance. At under $1000 these modules offer significantly better value than competing single channel modules retailing for over $1400.

FAQ

Q: Will Diesel Power module void my factory warranty?

A: While the answer is straightforward from a legal point of view, we would like to educate our customers on some industry realities and offer some common sense precautions to minimize your risk.The Federal Magnusson-Moss Warranty Act protects consumers of aftermarket products

- In Australia a consumer is protected under the nationwide Australian Consumer Law which incorporates the individual State Governments Fair Trading and Consumer Affairs Law -.

The act states that if something breaks on your car and you take it in for warranty repair, the dealer must honor your warranty unless they can prove that whatever modifications you have added to your vehicle actually caused the problem.While as a consumer you have strong legal protection regarding your vehicle's warranty, there is also a practical reality that different automotive manufacturers and dealers have greatly varying views on aftermarket products, in particular those that produce much-desired added horsepower, such as performance modules, chips, exhaust systems, and modified intake manifolds. There are dealers and manufacturers out there that will use the presence of a performance upgrade to void your vehicles warranty. They will do this regardless of which performance upgrade you are using.The bottom line is that while the law protects the consumer and provides for enforcement of the warranty, it is very difficult for most people to hire a lawyer and fight a voided warranty. DIESELPOWER recommends that you disconnect any performance-enhancing device prior to taking your vehicle in for service.

Q: Will the Diesel Power module cause any damage to the transmission?

A: No, however hard driving styles or abuse can cause damage to transmissions even at stock power levels.

Q: Will the Diesel Power module improve fuel efficiency?

A: Yes, based on your driving style you may see a 8% improvement in fuel efficiency due to the significant increase in low RPM torque. Fuel efficiency will vary due to individual driving styles.

Q: Can the Diesel Power module put any strain or cause any damage to my engine?

A: The Diesel Power module is designed and programmed in every case to improve the vehicles performance no more than the engines safety limits will allow, our module is programmed very carefully to insure no extra strain is put on the engine and all of its components such as turbo and injection equipment. To this day we have never had an incident where our module has caused ANY engine related problems. The life of an engine is determined by how it is driven and looked after. We have installed many Diesel Power modules on older, high milage cars and have cars that have been using the module for years without any problems.

Q: Is there a warranty on the Diesel Power module?

A: Yes, we give a 3 year direct replacement warranty for any faulty Diesel Power module.
