Dramatically transform throttle response, pulling power and acceleration
One of the many specialist automotive services provided by Oxfordshire based Owen Developments to manufacturers, importers, dealers, motorsport teams and private customers are the provision of proven and durable-to-use power upgrades for standard production vehicles.
The latest models to be added to the range of vehicles that can benefit from a power upgrade are the new Toyota Hilux pick-ups.
Brian Owen, Managing Director said, "We have developed, and can now supply, two power-grade packages, one for the 2.5-litre common rail turbodiesel models imported by Toyota into the UK and the other for the 3.0-litre turbodiesel variants which are imported independently."
"Any competent do-it-yourself customer can fit these upgrades to their vehicles in less than 15 minutes."
He added, "Whether the owner of the new Toyota Hilux uses their vehicle for towing, carrying loads up to the maximum weight for this vehicle or just wants more performance and better driveability, our power upgrade will dramatically transform the throttle response, pulling power and acceleration. The microcomputer we supply is already programmed and it comes with a plug-in adapter loom to link it to the engine’s standard ECU. As we supply all the fitting instructions it is just a case of plug it in and go."
