AVO Turboworld at Sattahip has designed and begun manufacture of a product to improve both performance and fuel economy of Common Rail Diesel engines, called the AVO DFC Fuel Controller.
This unit can be installed in 5-10 minutes using minimal tools. At the factory setting you can expect 10-12 percent peak torque and horsepower improvement and further gains are available with a simple adjustment if you have further modifications such as improved intercooler or exhaust. It also improves throttle response and as an addition to the performance increase, an improvement of up to 8 percent in fuel economy can also be achieved with normal driving. All performance improvement figures are validated on the AVO in-house Dyno as well as road tests and 0-100 kph time improvement figures.
The AVO Fuel Controller can be made to fit most Common Rail Diesel engines on sale in Thailand but there are a few exceptions. AVO Turboworld have also ensured me that there can be no damage to the engine as the ECU still has control and will not exceed its own parameters. Another handy feature is that it can be easily removed if the vehicle has to go in for Servicing and the ECU has no record of it being fitted and thereby protecting warranty.
The unit retails for less than 6,000 THB and comes with a 12 month warranty. For further information on your Common Rail vehicle, ring Terry Wilson at AVO on 084 945 5167 or email [email protected].
