  • DTE System ensures 706hp output for a lucky BMW M5 Competition model

    2019 DTE Systems BMW M5 CompetitionBMW M5 Competition is the new performance-focused version of the sporty sedan. Geared with a 4.4-liter twin-turbo V8 engine, the extra-powerful drivetrain system offers a total of 625hp and 553lb.ft of torque. Sweet, ain’t it?

    However, DTE Systems team thinks that there could be even more power incorporated in the M5 Competition. And as a result of installing a PowerControl RX and PedalBox+ gadgets, engineers have managed to achieve 706hp and 656lb.ft of total power output. Definitely a worthy amount that can even compete with Aston Martin DB 11’s 608hp and Lambo Huracan 640 horses.

    The PowerControl RX upgrade

  • DTE Systems uprates the SENT engine generation of Mercedes-Benz E220 d

    DTE Systems Mercedes-Benz E220d front view

    The tuning studio has developed PowerControl SNT unit which adds more power and torque

    DTE Systems experts are good human beings, who have developed a new tuning box, named PowerControl SNT, raising the potential of the latest Mercedes E220 d. Under the hood is the four-cylinder diesel (W213), which has become more sporting and agile. But to go into details, the added power is 24 bhp and 49 Nm.

    What does this mean? The 2.0 litre turbo-diesel engine in the E-class produces 194 hp and 400 Nm of torque, at its stock version. The chiptuning solution provided by DTE, not only ensures there are better driving dynamics and greater torque, but also excites with more dynamic traction and significantly enhanced agility.

    The Power Control SNT unit is responsible for all of this. It has Multi-Protocol technology, which helps in capturing both digital SENT signals as well as analog signals from the ECU. In addition, the engine parameters are precisely optimized based on RPM and engine load. Then, they are passed on to the engine management in real time. And this is how the Mercedes gets the addition of +24 bhp and +49 Nm, ensuing that there is a total of 218 bhp and 449 Nm of torque.

    PedalBox has another benefit and it is that with its characteristics, the accelerator pedal can be easily fine-tuned. This gives the sedan a serious sporting prowess. For instance, when in Sport and Sport+ mode, the Mercedes E 220 responds with greater direction to the driver’s commands on the throttle. On the other hand, the City mode is perfect for the traffic.

  • Another BMW M235i Cabriolet Project Mightier than its Stock Brother

    DTE-Systems BMW M235i Cabriolet Front ViewDTE-Systems BMW M235i is a very special version of the M235i cabriolet that features enhanced power and some other playful characteristics. But before we discus the benefits that this car comes with, we should also remind you that the last news published about BMW was also about the M235i.

    SEE ALSO: dÄHLer Releases BMW M235i Cabriolet with 390HP

    However, it was a M235i-tuning project by dÄHLer, which as a result generated around 390 horsepower. The logical question that comes in mind is whether this DTE-Systems project will bring out even more from this special M-Series cabrio. Let’s see.

    FSR14 Performance upgrade for the Turbocharged Engine

    DTE-Systems BMW M235i with open hood

    Under the hood of the M235i is the 3.0-liter turbocharged straight-six motor, which in its stock form produces 326 hp (240 kW) and 450 Nm (332 lb-ft) of torque. DTE-System’s performance upgrade called FSR1 adds to these numbers 40 hp and 70 Nm, making them a total of 366 hp (269 kW) and 520 Nm (384 lb-ft).

    If you have followed my thoughts then you should also know the answer of the aforementioned question. Unfortunately, DTE-System did not manage to beat dÄHLer’s 390 hp for the BMW M235i.

    New Keypad System

    Nonetheless, this cabriolet has some other goodies that the other one doesn’t. For instance, an important additional feature here is the keypad system that allows the driver to choose from three different and fully customizable driving programmes.

    As a result, they can dial in as many as seven power levels within these programmes. Three-colour LEDs show the chosen programme and service level.

    DTE’s PedalBox

    In addition, greater driving pleasure is ensured via the in-house made PedalBox. What does it do? Well, it quickens the response time of the electronic throttle. In fact, there are over 20 different settings, three programmes and seven power levels. This of course gives the opportunity of a suitable response from a standing start and in intermediate gear acceleration.

  • Volkswagen Amarok with Injector Tuning and More Power

    DTE-Systems Volkswagen Amarok Engine Tuning DTE-Systems Volkswagen Amarok has now more power to offer. The stock 180 hp (132 kW) and 400 Nm (295 lb-ft) of torque weren’t enough for the tuning experts at DTE-Systems. This is the reason why they decided to develop a PDI10 power module in order to increase the output of the Amarok.

    And this is how they have done everything.

    Firstly, they have created DTE Injector Tuning, which increases engine’s efficiency. All in all this means more power and less efficiency. Follow me until the end and you’ll now the exact numbers! The injector tuning also comes with specific mapping for the vehicle and of course – appropriate adapter cables. They help in linking the module between the vehicle and its ECU.

    In addition to this, the thermal protection functions of the TDI engine remain the same as are the emission rates. This ensures maximum engine durability and reliability.

    The PDI10 performance module can be combined with an in-house made PedalBox conversion. It will help remove built-in lag in the electronic drive-by-wire throttle by connecting the accelerator pedal and the engine. Another benefit is the optimal distribution of fuel dispensed to the engine.

    The final result is 30 horsepower and 60 Newton meters in addition, meaning a total of 210 hp (154 kW) and 460 Nm (339 lb-ft) of torque. And in terms of fuel savings, this Amarok pick-up needs 15% less fuel than before.

  • See How this Mercedes C63 AMG is Boosted to 590HP [VIDEO]

    Let me introduce you to this more powerful C63 AMG. You might think that it is enough for a Mercedes to carry the AMG designation, but many are on a different opinion. It seems that for the tuners at DTE-Systems, a new German customization studio, car’s stock 476 hp aren’t enough, because these are the horses that the new variant of the vehicle produces.

    The main goal of the modification specialists was to prepare the car in the battle for supremacy against rivals like the BMW M3 and Audi RS4. Hence, they have created a special performance enhancement package for the C63 AMG, called DTE FSR14.

    The in-house made chip-tuning have boosted the power and torque of the 4.0-litre bi-turbo V8 engine of the emblematic model with 116 hp and 166 Nm. Therefore the horses have grown from 476 hp (350 kW) to 590 hp (434 kW), while the torque from 650 Nm (480 lb-ft) to 816 Nm (602 lb-ft). Now, that’s a thing, isn’t it?

    In addition, the development engineers also reshaped the power and torque delivery characteristics, thus ensuring optimum everyday driveability. And in order to ensure maximum performance accompanied by minimum load, DTE-Systems have utilized multi-map technology that offers a choice of driving behavior.
