• Maximum torque: 920 Nm

A power and torque curve is systematically provided so that you can see exactly how performance has changed after the work has been carried out.

Depending on the configuration of the vehicle and its intended use, several options are available:

• Cold Start Off: no high-speed cold start
• Vmax Off: removal of the maximum speed limit

Each option is set within a controlled framework, respecting the mechanics, transmission and use of the vehicle.
