Modifying power delivery on modern turbocharged vehicles often requires balancing power increases with factory engine safeties. The DTE PowerControl X module intercepts key engine sensor signals via vehicle-specific harnesses to increase output without over-flashing the factory ECU. Power increases reach up to +53 hp and +55 lb-ft of torque depending on the vehicle application. The system integrates smartphone control for mode switching on demand and can be removed to revert to factory settings.
