Diesel Vehicles

Normally there is only one kind of conversion for diesel vehicles, and most of the time, with latest diesel vehicles, most modifications are electronic. We rarely change the exhaust systems on diesel vehicles. The advantage of diesel engines is that you have better control of where you want the engine to perform at its best, unlike petrol engines. The disadvantage of diesel engines is that you are restricted with the combustion temperature of the engine, it CANNOT run to hot, especially in a country like South Africa where the ambient temperature can get very hot! Diesel engines do NOT like HIGH RPM!!!

In order to get more power and torque out of your diesel vehicle it is necessary to inject more fuel into the engine at the right time, to be able to do that we have to get more air into the engine, otherwise it will run too rich causing high combustion temperatures. Luckily most of the common rail diesel engines are manufactured with turbo chargers, so by raising the boost we manage to get more air into the engine, allowing us to add fuel, resulting in higher torque and power output. When your vehicle produces more power, it will maintain your CRUISING speed with less effort, resulting in improved fuel economy.

dyna Considering the fact that vehicles are mass produced, manufacturer's specified settings are general guidelines and does not consider each engines individual characteristics.  Dyna-tuning is the process whereby the engine settings are adjusted (tuned) while continuously monitoring the performance during the adjustment, in order to obtain the position of optimum performance.  Dyna-tuning optimizes your engines operating parameters, ensuring optimum performance and efficiency. ..

sam-3 We always think of increasing the power of the vehicle to gain speed, rarely do we consider the importance of faster and safer braking. This is a very important factor as the standard braking systems on many vehicles is not effective enough with the standard vehicle’s performance. Fitting larger discs and callipers is a very expensive process. We have put together quite an affordable package which is very popular. Using the same (standard) callipers, we replace the discs and pads with performance parts that can handle higher temperatures...

We do exhaust systems on all makes and models. You can choose between a mild steel or a stainless steel exhaust. The stainless steel exhaust comes with a 5 year warrantee.

We also do cat removals. On newer level cars it is sometimes necessary to fit a Unichip together with the cat removal as the computer can sense if the cats are blocked or open (not there anymore). ..

Petrol Vehicles: On Petrol vehicles we normally have 2 kinds of conversions, namely Stage 1 and Stage 2. On some of the newer vehicles we only do a Stage 1 as it is more cost effective and better value for money to the customer.  Read more
