Increase the power output of the Alfa Stelvio 2.0 turbo 16V from 200hp to 240hp?
We can get closer to this power. This article again stems from people who, like you, read our tuning blog and write to us for answers to certain questions. Sometimes, we decide to turn the answers to interesting questions into an article to be published on our official website for other users to read as well. Specifically, this question comes from a workshop that usually installs our chip tuning additional units on different diesel cars of the Fiat - Alfa and sometimes Lancia groups.
These days there has been more than one request related to a Stelvio model with a gasoline engine. It seems to be one of those cases of buyer's remorse over the engine, not the car itself. From what we know, those who bought a Stelvio were happy with it; however, there are other circumstances that apply to all cars and brands. In this specific case, we are talking about some customers who chose the 2000 turbo gasoline 16V engine with 200 horsepower while their hearts were probably attracted to the "Veloce" version with the same engine size and 280 horsepower and 400Nm of maximum torque.
Hence the question, "How to increase the power of the Alfa Stelvio 2.0 turbo 16V 200hp?
First, let's see how the Stelvio 2.0 turbo 200hp runs in stock conditions. The engine is an Alfa Romeo 2-liter with a 16-valve cylinder head, turbocharger, and intercooler. The power is not very high for such an engine and is expressed at about 4500 rpm, while the maximum torque is not bad and is expressed at 1750 rpm with a force of 330Nm. All this is enough to reach 215Km/h top speed and a zero to one hundred acceleration in about 7.2 seconds. The mass of this Stelvio is approximately 1700 kg, while the automatic transmission is 8-speed with permanent all-wheel drive.
A small comparison with the 280-horsepower Stelvio Veloce?
First of all, at about 5200 rpm, the maximum power is expressed, and the maximum torque is as much as 400Nm expressed at about 2250 rpm, allowing a top speed of 230Km/h. What is most appreciated is the acceleration; it only takes about 5.6 seconds to get to 100Km/h from a standing start. That is why some people regret choosing the 200-horsepower version. Now let's see what can be done.
See how in a few minutes you can install the CHIPBOX in your Alfa Stelvio 2.0 turbo 16V
Alfa Stelvio 2.0 turbo 16V 200hp electronic tuning
When the SELETRON kit arrives at your doorstep, you will immediately notice two things. First is the quality, you can see it from the packaging, the chip tuning unit itself, and the wiring harnesses with original connectors for the Alfa engine. The clear and thorough instructions and other details complete the picture. The second thing you experience is the sportiness. You can't wait to open the hood of your Stelvio and take back what's yours! A nice dose of extra power and torque from that nice turbocharged Alfa 4-cylinder that wants to gallop off.
All you have to do is follow the attached instructions (which include photos of your engine) and plug some connectors into the engine harness. The chip tuning unit will begin to manage the fuel injection system and turbo differently, leaving all stock controls to the original Alfa Romeo engine control unit. The result is a torque increase of as much as 65Nm and a peak of +39 horsepower on the power delivery curve! Maximum torque reaches a value of 395Nm, practically similar to that of the 2-liter turbocharged Stelvio Veloce.
Power increases significantly, and the engine sound also underscores what the electronically tuned engine can do. The great thing is that no mechanical or electronic modifications are needed, and the engine ECU is not touched in the slightest. This is not a remapping of the ECU but the assembly of an external kit that can be completely removed without leaving any traces.
Performance changes immediately, and acceleration and pickup especially are no longer the same. The Stelvio becomes a middle ground between the more "quiet and lively" 200hp version and the much sportier 280hp Veloce. What about gasoline consumption? This depends a lot on how you drive the car, but we can tell you that several customers who have already installed our upgrade kit on their turbo-petrol Alfa have managed to optimize their fuel consumption. Once again, we remind you that the Alfa Stelvio power boost kit is made completely in Italy, covered by an official SELETRON warranty, and also boasts a TUV Austria certification. It is a top-notch Italian kit for a pure Italian sports car!
