Dear Taxi Drivers
 
I am writing to you to introduce a product which can genuinely reduce your spend on diesel by about 7-10%.
 
We Randstad are the UK importers and distributors of a revolutionary, high technology product called DPT. We are a well established (1975) distributor of quality automotive products to the professional automotive market, with a reputation for supplying quality products. We operate with a network of almost 150 installers throughout the UK. I am sure as a professional driver with niclreasing fuel overheads  you will be interested in the benefits of DPT to your own fleet or vehicle, and am contacting you to provide some information and invite you to ask whatever questions you may have relating to the product.
 
DPT is proven cutting edge technology, designed in Europe to the very highest quality standards by an ex Formula 1 / F3000 engineer. The constituent parts of the product are manufactured in the Netherlands. The wiring loom by a company who also manufacture looms for Philips medical equipment including their MRI scanners. At the heart of the PCBs is an Atmel 32 bit microprocessor.
 
DPT technology improves the combustion of a modern turbo diesel engine, by injecting fuel at a very slightly higher pressure, this results in reduced fuel demand to develop torque. By programming the DPT units we can optimise the fuel consumption for most diesel vehicles in your fleet.

Respected motoring TV presenter and journalist Quentin Willson recently had a DPT unit fitted to his 2.7 L Jaguar XJ and highly impressed. In his Sunday Mirror column on 15th June he wrote about DPT, his article included the line "the bit you need to know is that it added about 5 miles to every gallon".

Subsequently on 22nd June he wrote following fitment to his Range Rover TDV8… More news on the DPT economy module I told you about last week. I’ve now had one fitted to my oil burning Range Rover and early indications suggest that economy has improved from 23.8mpg to 29.8mpg…. Given the results I’ve had on my Jag as well, it looks like this £ 300 black box will pay for itself in less than a year at today’s derv prices. As far as I’m concerned, it is the only diesel economy device that really works.
 
Quentin Willson will be introducing a prime time TV programme on ITV at 8pm on 30th June entitled “Priced Off The Road” in which he will further extol the virtues of this exceptional product.
 
Already we have tuned a TX4 which is operational and attaining 7% savings in MPG. At present only alimited number of cabs have this. We have yet to get PCO approval which is a long process but we know you need a solution NOW. SO maybe you can hep us to help you by demanding this technology be made available.

A travel company in Surrey, Titan Aviation, carried out a rigorous evaluation of the product and committed to fitting DPT to 160 VW T5 based minibuses it operates, after calculating that DPT was saving them 8% in their fuel overhead. Note this also means they had reduced their CO2 emissions on these vehicles by 8% too. Already they are talking to us about having the units fitted to their cars once the installation process on the minibuses is complete. I am sure Richard Baxter Transport Manager of Titan would be willing to provide a reference should you so require.

There is a lot more information about DPT available on http://www.dieselpowertuning.co.uk , please visit the site , use the savings calculator, read the news which includes Quentin Willson's full articles as well as many other supporting documents.  The following link should specifically be of interest; http://www.dieselpowertuning.co.uk/calc.php

I would welcome the opportunity to speak to you about how we can help you reduce the diesel fuel overhead on your fleet. Ideally we would like the opportunity to supply an initial unit for a suitable vehicle for evaluation.
 

Regards
Martin C Dowd
Managing Director

I've just had my Nissan diesel ECU remapped by Collins Performance in Congleton. They actually plug a device called "Genius" into the ecu comms point and upload the programming from the vehicle. This is transferred to a computer and is overwritten to improve the fuelling and injector settings and fully remap the ecu. The new program is then transferred back to the ecu via the Genius and thats the job done. No extra devices need to be fitted to the vehicle and theres no way of knowing anything has been done to it unless you plug a computer into the ecu.
The difference in the way the engine performs is immediately obvious. The power delivery is silky smooth right across the range and the torque is far better. The power is up by about 30bhp and economy is also up dramatically. All for £300 +vat. This conversion can be done on any petrol or diesel engine with electronic injection.
I am so impressed with the difference of the way the vehicle drives now. Its like its got a different engine fitted from the original one. It pulls from slow traffic in 6th quite happily all the way to motorway speeds without changing down.
