The extra performance achieved by the Powerchip allows your vehicle to respond much better than stock Rexton RX290 2.9s. You will notice an effortless push back into the drivers seat, to give you a much more enjoyable and at times safer driving experience. The Powerchip will tap into your Ssangyongs hidden reserves, to give you an immediately noticeable improvement from your vehicle we guarantee it!

Torque
Torque is a measurement of your engines pulling power, and it is torque that pulls you up hills, allowing your engine a more linear and aggressive acceleration curve. With the Powerchip, you notice the increase in torque right throughout the rev range, which gives you far greater flexibility at low engine revolutions. Towing will become less demanding, and you will no longer feel the need to take the engine to the redline in each gear to get the performance you demand... Its always there for you, when you really need it most!

Acceleration
Increased Power and Torque results in faster acceleration. And it is not just standing start acceleration that is improved, your ingear acceleration is as well. If overtaking is important to you, you will feel safe knowing that you spend less time on the wrong side of the road, improving the safety of your car, for you and your family or passengers. Perhaps you feel that you need that extra bit of power when you are lined up at the "traffic light grand prix" against another car with similar (or more) power? If you want to have the unfair advantage that will give you more GO away from the lights, you need a Powerchip performance software upgrade for your Rexton RX290 2.9.

Fitting Details
Your car uses a Surface Mount Chip. Most late model vehicles are fitted with the latest technology Surface Mount Technology chip (SMT). The SMT style chip must be de-soldered by a trained specialist in electronics soldering. Fitting takes between 1 to 3 hours and can be arranged in most areas. Please enquire at the time of order for your nearest installations facility.

On Road Development
Where Powerchip really shines out over its competitors is the emphasis and time spent refining the program for drivability and enjoyment. Much more a real world gain than full throttle horse power runs on a dyno, part throttle refinement is a gain everyone uses every time they drive the vehicle. Flat spots and poor off the line performance are smoothed out in this process, and transient throttle conditions are made razor sharp for the ultimate in response. Real time changes to tables like throttle response and power enrichment are done on road to fine tune the driving experience of the vehicle, with acceleration timing equipment used to ensure consistent and measurable gains in part throttle drivability.

Drivability
Powerchip technicians do not spend their whole research and development focus tuning the full throttle performance of each vehicle. A significant emphasis is placed on the part throttle performance. We understand that driving in everyday conditions is more than just flat out acceleration, with your foot flat to the floor. With Powerchip performance software, your car will perform to its potential, even when you are not demanding the peak performance. You no longer need to mash the throttle to take off briskly, and in-gear overtaking can be performed without needing to change down gears. One of the main benefits of choosing to enhance your vehicle with the Powerchip is the improvement you will feel in all driving situations, no matter what your driving style is...

Manufacturers Tolerances
Ssangyong unfortunately leaves large tolerances in the performance characteristics of its entire fleet to allow for drivers that are negligent on maintenance, and who are non-enthusiasts. The Rexton RX290 2.9 is de-tuned to be able to run on the poorest grade of fuel that the car is likely to encounter anywhere in the world, and also to allow for the small percentage of owners who put their cars reliability to the test due to their lack of mechanical understanding. In most cases, our clients are enthusiasts who place more emphasis on the performance characteristics of their vehicle, and therefore the Powerchip does not need to be programmed as conservatively as the stock software.

Exaust Gas Temperature

The Powerchip is designed to get the best from your diesel engine, to do this your engine is tuned with longevity in mind. A diesel engines Exhaust Gas Temperature (EGT) rises as fuel is added. The more fuel, the higher engine output and EGT. The Powerchip upgrade utilizes the manufacturer's fine resolution adjustment of injection timing and duration, turbo boost and torque limits to ensure torque, drivability and throttle response are not compromised across the rev range.

Cetane Rating
Cetane Rating is a quality rating for diesel fuel, similar to octane ratings for petrol. It indicates how easily the diesel fuel ignites and burns. Powerchip understands and develops all our performance diesel software in Australia to suit Australian weather and altitutde conditions.

Our Satisfaction Guarantee

Every Powerchip sold in Australia comes with an unconditional 14day money back guarantee*. This ensures that the Powerchip will live up to your expectations, not ours! If for any reason you are unsatisfied with the Powerchip, you may return the Powerchip to your place of purchase for a full refund of the purchase price (not including shipping and handling, installation and removal etc.). Our satisfaction guarantee* offers you total peace of mind, and makes the purchase of the Powerchip risk free. By purchasing a Powerchip you have nothing to lose and everything to gain!
* Valid for purchases from March 11th 2005 until December 31st 2005

Warranty
All Powerchip upgrades come with a three-year, unlimited kilometer warranty, which means that if anything occurs to the Powerchip in that time, we will replace it without charge to you. An optional extended Powerchip warranty is also available at an additional $190 at the time of ordering. This extends the warranty period on any Powerchip to six years. If your car is covered by a new or dealer warranty, the dealer may not void a warranty simply because you have fitted an aftermarket product. The fitment of the Powerchip will not have a detrimental effect on your vehicle performance or engine longevity, and therefore does not interfere with the manufacturers warranty in any way. The terms and conditions of the Powerchip warranties can be viewed in detail on our web site at http://www.powerchipgroup.com/products/warranty.asp

Value for a Lifetime

The investment you make in the Powerchip will last for as long as you keep your car, and for most of our customers, that is normally for 3 or 4 years. So when you consider the benefits of the chip over a number of years, it is not a lot to pay for extra performance you will probably use nearly every day. As a percentage of the total cost of your car, the Powerchip works out to be very cost effective. Also, with the Powerchip, you can expect your car to command a higher price when it comes time to sell!

Cost Effectiveness
As we all know, modifying late model vehicles is not a cheap exercise, however, when you look at it on a kw per dollar basis, the Powerchip comes in ahead of any other modification you could make to your Ssangyong. Have a look at just how well the Powerchip stacks up:
