Diesel Power Tuning

Regal Contracts are your local Diesel Power Tuning (DPT) service agent in Leicester, authorised to fit the latest Diesel Power Tuning module to your vehicle.

With a DPT module fitted it is now possible to unlock the true potential of your diesel engine, increasing power and performance with fuel savings of up to 16% over your vehicle's current MPG.

As your local DPT installer, Regal Contracts have direct access to the designers and manufacturers of the system and can program the DPT module to your personal motoring requirements. You will not be disappointed with the performance of the DPT product which is fully guaranteed when installed by one of our trained technicians.

For commercial fleet customers we offer an additional service where our technicians will fit the DPT module on-site for no additional cost.

The DPT module is quality manufactured in Europe by a Dutch company whose pedigree extends to Formula 1 and Formula 3000. In the Netherlands 38 Mercedes Benz dealerships have been approved to fit DPT modules.

Whether you own a Taxi, 4x4, light commercial vehicle, pull heavy loads, tow trailers and caravans, cover high annual mileage or simply seek an increase in Power or Economy, there is a DPT product that will help you save time and money. The DPT product is suitable for use in all Diesel engine vehicles.

The advantages of fitting a DPT module include improved drivability, increased BHP and pulling power (torque), elimination of dead spots and improved MPG especially for high mileage drivers.

Further information regarding the DTP module can be obtained by contacting our service reception on Leicester (0116) 2414224 who can give futher advice on fitting options and costs.

Additional DPT Information

What effect does the module have on my vehicle emissions?

Because of the very high compression ratio of diesel engines, typically over 20:1, the cylinders contain more air than is needed for normal operating conditions. By slightly increasing the pressure at which the fuel is injected we make better use of ALL the air available which dramatically increases both the power and torque.

As a consequence the engine operates more efficiently, so less throttle is required for any given set of driving conditions, the engine uses less fuel and is both more economical and emits less CO2. So a DPT module ensures better power, more torque, improved MPG with lower CO2 emisson.

What effect will the module have upon my fuel consumption?

Increased torque means driving will require fewer gear changes with resulting lower fuel consumption, typically a 5-10% improvement can be expected. Coupled with a high flow air filter and fuel treatment the benefit can be further enhanced. In some cases a DPT module has been programmed to provide up to 16% savings in fuel, potentially a major cost saving for higher mileage drivers.

Why vehicle manufacturers do not set DPT levels

Vehicle manufactures have many different factors to consider preparing vehicles and engine variants to suit varying international markets and not your personal requirements.

A manufacturer may have reduced power output to comply with a specific requirement in one of their key markets. Thus you purchase a vehicle capable of achieving far more BHP and Torque without ANY compromise to the life of the engine. They may also fit the same engines into different vehicles but not tune each variant for the particular engine / vehicle combination. In addition, most European countries have stricter emission controls than the UK and tune their engines for the general European market and not the UK. So better performance in terms of BHP, Torque and MPG are achievable if the engine is tuned by the DPT module.

Certain manufacturers do now offer upgrades as an optional extra e.g. Mitsubishi while BMW offer their "Efficient Dynamics" package which increases BHP, Torque and improves MPG with reduced CO2. But none of these bear favourablely as a price comparison to DPT and are not portable in the same way that the DPT module is.

Does the DPT have any detrimental effect upon my engine?

No, the DPT module simply enables your engine to develop more power and torque, which are contained within the Vehicle Manufacturers tolerance levels so there is possibility of engine damaging. Think of DPT as improving engine "efficiency".

Does the module interfere with or reprogram my ECU?

No the DPT module connects between the original ECU and the injection system of your car. The module intercepts the data coming from the original module, re-calculates and optimises the data before sending the modified parameters to the injection system.

Can I switch the DPT module off?

The DPT module may simply be unplugged at any point in time and your vehicle will immediately return to its standard settings and performance.
