What do the Chrysler 300C 3.0 CRD, Jeep Grand Cherokee 3.0 CRD and the very latest Jeep Commander 3.0 CRD have in common? All three models are powered by an advanced 3.0-liter CRD common-rail V6 turbodiesel engine. And for all three there is SD6 tuning from STARTECH.

The STARTECH SD6 tuning kit consists of a computer-controlled auxiliary control unit. Thanks to an included model-specific wire harness and detailed installation instructions the plug-and-play module can be installed in less than 30 minutes by any authorized Chrysler/Jeep dealer.

The new engine mapping increases maximum power output of the 3.0-liter V6 common-rail turbodiesel engine from standard 218 hp / 160 kW to 262 hp / 193 kW at 4,000 rpm. Even more important in everyday driving is the increase in torque from a standard peak of 510 Nm to 580 Nm, available between a low 1,600 and 2,800 rpm.

These impressive power figures naturally benefit vehicle performance: The Chrysler 300C 3.0 CRD with STARTECH SD6 tuning shortens acceleration time for 0 – 100 km/h from 7.6 (Touring wagon: 7.9) seconds to 7.2 (Touring wagon: 7.5) seconds. Top speed increases from 230 (Touring wagon: 227) to 235 (Touring wagon: 232) km/h.

The Grand Cherokee 3.0 CRD with SD6 performance tuning also exhibits markedly improved temperament: 8.5 instead of 9.2 seconds for the sprint to 100 km/h and top speed increase from 200 to 210 km/h clearly reflect the added power.

The new Jeep Commander 3.0 CRD also benefits notably from a STARTECH SD6 module. The added driving fun also expresses itself in improved performance figures such as a sprint time from 0 – 100 km/h of just 8.5 instead of normally 9.0 seconds and a new top speed of 200 km/h, up from 191 km/h for the production car.

Yet another benefit of the STARTECH SD6 performance kits is their excellent environmental compatibility. Thanks to the optimized torque curve fuel consumption remains on the low level of the production car while exhaust emissions meet the same strict limits as its non- tuned brethren.

As the perfect complement to performance tuning STARTECH recommends installation of a STARTECH sport exhaust system for all Chrysler and Jeep CRD models. The fully stainless- steel exhaust further optimizes power yield. It also gives the engine a throatier exhaust note without being obtrusive. The characteristic oval-shaped STARTECH tailpipes lend the various Chrysler and Jeep models a more striking rear appearance.
