Superchips Nissan Qashqai
The British chip tuner Suuperchips, who is one of the best in business, announced a new kit for the Nissan Qashqai.
It benefits the models powered by the 1.5 liter DCi diesel 110PS engine, and provides them with an extra 20 hp and 37 Nm of torque. Independent consumption tests on Superchip equipped vehicles have proven that by optimising the ECU’s settings and increasing the low speed torque output, fuel consumption improves by up to 7%. That is amazing how you can increase the power and simultaneously lower the fuel consumption, all through electronics.
Priced at £399.00 including VAT @ 20%, the Superchips bluefin ECU remap for September 2010 onwards Nissan Qashqai.
Superchips press release:
Increasingly, consumers are looking for solutions that can both improve their vehicle’s fuel economy and boost the performance of their car without sacrificing precious miles per gallon, or having to resort to buying a newer, more expensive model.
Which is why Superchips, Europe’s leading provider of high performance ECU reprogramming solutions for petrol and diesel engine vehicles, is pleased announce the launch of a ‘bluefin’ remap for the best selling Euro 5 110PS 1.5 DCi Nissan Qashqai crossover, which enhances performance, driveability, engine refinement and fuel economy.
And with just 108bhp of 1461cc turbo diesel power pulling a hefty 1407 kilos, few would argue that the 1.5 DCi Qashqai requires a performance increase. Happily, the Superchips bluefin ECU remap adds power from just 2100rpm upwards, culminating in a healthy 20bhp gain at just 3721rpm.
Likewise, Superchips’ technicians have worked wonders on the 1.5 DCi Qashqai’s torque output, extracting an additional 37Nm at a mere 2259rpm, highlighting the flexibility of the upgrade.
On the road the extra power and torque from the Superchips enhanced Nissan Qashqai brings the excitement back to daily driving. The 1.5 DCi unit pulls harder throughout the rev range, feeling considerably more responsive, urgent and willing, making overtaking, fast cruising and towing a pleasurable experience. As are visits to the fuel pumps. Independent consumption tests on Superchip equipped vehicles have proven that by optimising the ECU’s settings and increasing the low speed torque output, fuel consumption improves by up to 7% – meaning that the Qashqai’s 54mpg quoted standard figure should be improved upon, even with a power increase of over 18%.
And, thanks to Superchips’ market leading bluefin ‘Plug-in and Go’ handset, it’s never been easier for Nissan Qashqai 1.5DCi owners to enjoy the extra performance, economy and refinement of a Superchips ECU remap.
No technical skills are required as Superchips’ customers plug the bluefin handset into the Qashqai’s OBDII diagnostic port and then follow the simple on-screen instructions, a process which takes a matter of minutes.
