Special Notes:

Your HOLDEN COLORADO can become significantly slower when towing, especially when your air conditioning and other accessory systems require power to run, and the engine provides that power.

Many drivers feel frustrated while driving, which can make simple overtaking a big problem, and applying full-throttle is a natural reaction when they think their HOLDEN COLORADO is not capable of performing as they expect.

This is because a diesel engine is meant to deliver a strong "torque" delivery and towing force at middle ranges of engine speed (2000-4000rpm). As a result, the car cannot complete an overtake even at full throttle if driving on a gently sloping road with a medium load onboard.

This results in potentially unsafe driving conditions and higher fuel consumption.

Diesel Tuning Brisbane Tailored ECM Tuning gives your HOLDEN COLORADO an additional 32 Horsepower of power and 28% of extra torque with a 100NM gain over stock, resulting in a much more responsive and safer car.

Many HOLDEN COLORADO owners are also frustrated when their car will not select 6th gear and will search for gears at highway speeds of 100km/h.

Diesel Tuning Brisbane Tailored TCM Transmission Tuning makes your HOLDEN COLORADO change gears more responsively, reduce Automatic Transmission Fluid Temperature, lower Torque Converter lockup speed, cruiser at lower engine speed, and select 6th gear on the highway, saving you fuel, money, and reducing your environmental impact.

TRANSMISSION TUNING is recommended for optimal results when tuning with an ECU REMAP  in your HOLDEN COLORADO.

To add a more pronounced exhaust note, fitting a HOLDEN COLORADO PERFORMANCE EXHAUST from the DPF-Back also enhances response and exhaust note. See more about performance exhausts for your HOLDEN COLORADO by clicking here.

A CLUTCH UPGRADE IS RECOMMENDED FOR MANUAL MODELS BEFORE TUNING.
