Chip Tuning for DS: Upgrade Your Car Without the Faff
How to Make Your DS Even Cooler: Chip Tuning for Beginners
DS is like French chic on wheels: style, comfort, the lot. But even this beauty can be levelled up! In this article, I’ll walk you through how chip tuning can turn your DS into a proper beast on the road. We’ll look at two simple ways: remap the car’s ECU or fit a module from GAN Tuning Buro. All straightforward, with pros and cons, so you can pick what suits you best.
A Bit About Tuning DS
DS comes from the PSA family, alongside Peugeot and Citroën, so they share a lot under the bonnet. That’s ace because your DS already has a stash of power waiting to be unleashed, no hassle. Plus, modern DS models play nicely with external modules, and your dealer won’t even clock it. Basically, it’s all set up for you!
What Will You Get from Chip Tuning?
Chip tuning is like an energy drink for your car. Here’s what it brings:
More power: Turbo engines can gain up to 30%, naturally aspirated ones up to 12%. Picture this: you hit the accelerator, and your car surges forward like you’re in an action flick.
Better fuel efficiency: Save up to 15%—a real lifesaver in traffic jams.
Phone control: GAN’s app lets you switch modes from your screen. Want some thrill? Flick to Sport. Need to save fuel? Tap Eco. Just cruising? Go back to Stock.
And GAN throws in a two-year engine warranty with coverage up to €5,000. That’s so you can sleep easy while your car tears up the tarmac.
Why Is GAN Simple and Handy?
GAN offers two modules for DS:
GAN GT: For turbo engines—up to 30% more power.
GAN GA+: For naturally aspirated—up to 12%.
Fitting them is a doddle, even if you’re clueless about cars. It’s plug-and-play: connect and drive. Heading to the dealer? Whip it off, and there’s no trace.
Plus, you get 50 days to test the module. Not feeling it? Return it for a refund and move on. It’s like a test drive, but for tuning.
The Bottom Line: Is It Worth the Effort?
If you want your DS to be even cooler, chip tuning is your ticket. More power, lower fuel costs, phone-controlled settings—all without any headaches. With GAN, you’re not just getting a boost; you’re getting peace of mind for your motor.
So, if you’re itching to give your DS a new lease of life, try GAN. It’s like giving your car a fresh spark without losing any of its charm. Let’s hit the road!
