Want to squeeze every little amount of fuel in your fuel tanks? Want to gain every last ounce of power from your engines? Want to gain better fuel economy, while saving the last penny in your billfolds? Or want to drive a more powerful car, SUV or truck? Want to achieve all of the above? If you answer yes, then better install a diesel programmer in your car, SUV or truck.
Also known as Diesel Performance chips, Diesel programmers do all the things above.
Diesel performance chips have evolved in the last decade or so that they have been in use, and vastly gained popularity. The reason for their evolution and following is because the diesel performance chips are able to dramatically increase engine power. There are diesel performance chips that can increase power as much as 230 horse power and 400 foot pounds of torque. That is comparable with the power of some bone stock diesel trucks.
There are three ways that diesel performance chips are able to create and increase the power and improve fuel economy.
1. Diesel performance chips are able to increase the power and improve fuel economy through duration. By duration, we mean that the fuel injectors are opened for as longer period of time so that more fuel can be injected into the cylinder. More fuel means more power. Diesel performance chips that use duration are not good choices for a gain of fuel mileage, but it creates a lot of power.
2. Timing. It means that the fuel is injected earlier than usual. Timing, when used correctly, adds a lot greater amount of power and also adds to fuel economy. The goal of fuel timing is that the fuel is injected into the cylinder at a more efficient time. Then more power is extracted form every molecule of fuel.
3. The third way is through pressure. Pressure means that the fuel rail lines pressure is increased, so more fuel is injected (creating more power), but at the same time having more pressure on the fuel when it gets to the injector helps it create a finer mist or atomize, so that the fuel exits the finer holes in the injector tips. The improved atomization also helps the fuel to get mixed even better with the air that enters the cylinder and is able to extract more power out from the fuel.
Most diesel performance chips use two or even three of these techniques. By essentially adding a lot more fuel and improving how the engine burns them, the diesel performance chips can increase both power and economy.
