Digital Adrenaline For Your…

Toyota Landcruiser 4.5 (FZJ75/FZJ80)
Powerchip technology enhances your Toyota to its ultimate level,
delivering faster, smoother acceleration in all driving conditions.
Whether you enjoy a leisurely weekend cruise or a hard racetrack
drive – there is no easier and more effective way to release the
potential from your Landcruiser 4.5 (FZJ75/FZJ80).

The following information is an overview of the performance the

Powerchip will deliver. If you have any questions, your Power
Consultant will assist you as best as possible. We look forward to
giving you the best performance possible from your Toyota.

The extra performance achieved by the Powerchip allows your

vehicle to respond much better than stock Landcruiser 4.5
(FZJ75/FZJ80)s. You will notice an effortless push back into the
driver’s seat, to give you a much more enjoyable and at times
safer driving experience. The Powerchip will tap into your Toyota’s
‘hidden reserves’, to give you an immediately noticeable
improvement from your vehicle – we guarantee it!
Torque
Torque is a measurement of your engine’s 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... It’s 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 in-
gear 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
Landcruiser 4.5 (FZJ75/FZJ80).
Fitting Details
Your car uses an ECU which features an embedded processor
rather than a normal chip or EPROM which means that your car
does not use a chip that can be modified. The Powerchip upgrade
for your car is an additional computer which alters the ignition
timing of the vehicle in the same way as a normal chip style
upgrade. Installation takes about 1 hour and can be performed by
a Powerchip Authorised Fitter. We have authorized fitters in most
areas. Please enquire at the time of order for your nearest fitting
station.

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
Toyota 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
Landcruiser 4.5 (FZJ75/FZJ80) 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.

Detectability
The dealer tool is able to detect upgraded software, if they were to
'go looking' for it, however it does not interupt the operation of the
scan tool
Modified Spark Advance
In the old days the ignition distributor controlled the engine spark
timing. Changes to the position in the distributor will result in
changed ignition settings, and is a good method of ‘tune-up’ for
older vehicles. Modern engine ignition is controlled by a series of
tables or maps. These maps give the engine any instructions
required to operate, under ALL load and rev per minute access
points.

Similar to the old systems, advancing the point of ignition within a

cylinder results in increased power and toque. It is important not
to advance the timing beyond the capabilities of the fuel used, or
else detonation can occur. Peak kilowatts are achieved when
ignition timing is set as close to the point of detonation as
possible, without exceeding it. This is the primary purpose for
asking the octane rating each client uses most frequently, so that
the software is set to the correct level of ignition advance for the
fuel used.

The end result of ignition advance changes is increased power

and torque, resulting in better acceleration and various other
driving benefits.
Octane ratings
The Powerchip is designed to get the best from your engine, and
to do this it is recommended that you use a high performance
fuel. When ordering your Powerchip upgrade, your Power
Consultant will ask you for the octane rating you would like your
program to run. The advantage of using better fuels can be
explained in further detail by your consultant.

Powerchip Gold is designed to run on fuel with an octane rating of

95 (Premium Unleaded, Caltex Vortex, Ampol Gold). Powerchip
Gold 98 is designed to run on fuel with an octane rating of 98 or
higher (Shell Optimax, BP Ultimate, Mobil Synergy 8000). We
highly recommend that you use the highest-octane fuel available
to you.

Our Satisfaction Guarantee

Every Powerchip sold in Singapore comes with an unconditional
14-day 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!
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 Toyota. Have a look at just how well the
Powerchip stacks up:

The Powerchip is designed to offer excellent value for money

compared with other modifications you might be planning in the
future.
