Simple tuning options to improve the performance of your Range Rover

Since its inception back in 1940 when the Range Rover SUV was launched by the British car maker Land Rover, the name has emerged as an iconic name in the world of SUV’s across the world. In-fact, it would not be wrong to say that the name has emerged as the synonym of power and performance merged in a unit, which every car enthusiast wishes to drive. However, with the changing time there is change in the methods of car manufacturing according to the changing technology, and therefore the cars manufactured by the UK based car maker are not an exception to it.

But, interestingly, despite of the new cars, there are lots of car lovers who are even interested to buy the SUV’s with the logo of Land Rover Range Rover that have been manufactured almost six to seven decades back. Well, this might surprise to you, that in today’s scenario when the vehicles of today’s generation are enriched with powerful engines, how the buyers of the old generation Ranger Rover’s will be able to drive them. Surprisingly, an answer to this question in simple words is through tuning the Range Rover.

You will agree that in current scenario that the prices of fuel are rising at jet dynamic speed across the world, and not only buyers of new vehicles but even the buyers of cars that have been four to five years old are struggling with the performance of their vehicle. As an impact of this they are are getting the engine of their vehicles tuned to extract its original performance which has been hidden by the manufacturers due to the restrictions imposed by the government of different countries, depending upon the driving conditions prevailing particular continent. Thus,  in such scenario Range Rover Tuning is not exception to it.

Now the question arises that what are the factors which are considered why tuning any of the Range Rover SUVs. Well an answer to this question is given in the following points;

Engine: With changing methods of car manufacturing there is also a huge change in the methods of its repairing and maintenance. In the early days, the mechanism of all the vehicles was controlled manually, especially before 2000. Because, in the post 2000 period the use of computer was introduced in determining the functionality and the performance of different components placed under the bonnet. The whole process is controlled through a chip or a program that is configured in the engine control unit of the vehicle. During tuning the program written in the chip is re-written or the whole chip is replaced with the new chip, depending upon the type of engine, thus delivering an improved performance of the vehicle, according to the expectations of the owner.

Replacing the air filter: The air filter although acts in transmitting the filtered and fresh air to the engine, but as the time passes there is a decline in its performance, which adversely minimizes the transition of fresh air to engine. Thus, indirectly, affecting the fuel efficiency and power generation efficiency of the vehicle. Therefore, replacing the existing air filter helps in enhancing the performance of a vehicle to huge extent.

Upgrading the exhaust system: Where an air filter sends fresh air to the engine, an exhaust system throws the poisonous gases from an engine to deliver its estimated performance. Thus, replacing the existing exhaust system, with after market system is also helpful in improving the performance of a vehicle, but instantly throwing the dangerous gases emerging inside the engine as the combination of fuel and air from the vehicle.

Upgrading the wheels: An interesting fact about the tuning is that it is not stagnated only the mechanical updates, but also the updates which indirectly affects the performance of a vehicle. You will agree that being a powerful SUV, the counterparts like wheels etc installed in such vehicles are also heavy and powerful. Moving ahead the weight of passengers and various other accessories put extra burden on the vehicle, thus impacting its performance. Installing the light weight, carbon fibre wheels is helpful in getting rid of such problems to a huge extent.

Besides, above mentioned options there are various options like upgrading suspension system, ignition system braking system etc, that are helpful in improving the performance of a vehicle to the huge extent.
