On the VP37 electronic rotary pumps, there are major differences. The EDC controller decides the timing, or phase, which operates in PWM to control an electro-hydraulic actuator that shifts the injection phase. The timing is no longer tied directly to the engine speed alone, but the ECU decides (based on the internal mapping contained in the EPROMs) which timing value to hold.

Specifically, we have developed a chip tuning unit for the 150 hp BMW 318d able to manage the amount of diesel injected by the common-rail system and the boost pressure that is electronically controlled on this engine as well. The power increase on the BMW 318d G20 is +30 horsepower and +55Nm of maximum torque.

I believe this Stelvio is the best performing SUV with an engine displacement around 2-liter (Diesel) cars, at least compared to other cars of this size. Its performance is already great at factory settings because of the chassis (which resembles the Giulia), the suspension, and the powerful brakes. The 2200 common-rail diesel pushes well with its 210 horsepower, and the engine torque is also not bad for this displacement.

Have you noticed this distinction when reading the data sheets of some cars? Have you ever wondered what these terms mean? Let's get a little bit of clarity to better understand what this is all about.

The acronym 25d on the BMW 5 Series has often changed meaning over the years. With reference to models produced since 2000, we find several 525d, all turbo diesel, but with profound differences in the engine. Let's have a look at the main engines that this acronym indicates.
