Default chipping vehicles

Chipping is a generic term that really applies to older vehicles.
My 96 VW has chips that can be changed but later newer vehicles have chips that need to be de-soldered and changed out. Beyond that, the newer vehicles can now be programmed through the OBD-II port that is used for diagnostics. A common unit for VW type engine management systems is referred to as a Q-loader. Using a Qloader you can reprogram the engine ECU with new programming to make it perform different or better.
I'm sure it will not be long after the Mahindras hit the market that there will be products to boost the engine performance of this vehicle.

Basically, with a diesel engine, if you give the engine more fuel and more air it will produce more power. That is what the programming does. Injected quantity and turbo boost pressure are what matters and thats what the chips or re-programming does..............J

Excellent photos.
The wait is for a TR40 is long but the pictures make it look like it will be worth every minute.
I am hear to stay. There is nothing else offered in the US market.
Unless a competitor has something hidden to release, which would be a longer wait than for the TR40, a few more months in nothing. We lived this many years envying the rest of the world, now it is our turn to have a vehicle we all discussed but never thought we had a chance to own.

Default Costa Rican TR40 for sale

Here's a TR40 for sale in Costa Rica, they're getting closer.

07 TURBO DIESEL 4door Mahindra 4X4 PICK UP best in class economical





Hi, we are selling our beloved 2007 Mahindra, it has everything you need for lots of travels, trips and work, it has a very economical 2.5 turbocharged diesel motor with only 47,000 gently traveled kilometers (La Fortuna, San Carlos to San Jose and back loaded pretty heavy for our soda for $20 dollars!
and that's with 3 people, plus we spend half a day driving around San Jose, that's over 260 kilometers!), it sits high above ground, and i've hauled lots of weight (like a load of a wet sand for construction) up the road to the waterfall which is VERY steep with no problem. This truck is so capable and has better traction then Land Rover Discovery, where in the sand of a desert Mahindra during a test was pulling them and other trucks stuck in sand! It has a 4 LARGE doors especially the rear ones, you would feel like you are in a limousine, the amount of space is MUCH bigger then in any similar trucks! Then there is a 4X4 switch you can turn on the fly, also a CD/MP3 with remote. This truck is so much better then anything else like it, similar one like Toyota Hilux with all of the options would cost you OVER $35 GRAND! And it's not AS capable. Our Mahindra has commercial plates, the marchamo is good until 2011, it is registered under a sociedad anonima corporation ready to be transferred to a new happy owner, oil has been changed 3 days ago and diesel filter a week ago, there is absolutely nothing wrong with it, it has always been services at the dealer and treated by me like one of the family, we would like $17,300, price is negotiable and no reasonable offer will be refused, drop me an email, if you need a good truck this one beats all others.
