Ordered placed for buying my Raptor. I get it in 6 weeks, It will be a nice to come back from my 6 week swing to collect it.
Cant wait 😁
Now let the mods begin ha.
Champion! Hopefully the 6 weeks goes quick👍🏻🍺
Hmm with that little diesel already making 50psi of boost, hopefully the rail pressues and boost pressures aren't so extreme they shorten engine life? Maybe have it dynoed as a bench mark and then again in a years time to compare?
good luck hopefully she holds up
Love the T shirt ha.. this is where I live now. The trucks 1.7 mill baht here, not to bad in price.
Here is Thailand it would be a nightmare getting warranty if things went wrong.
😂 cheers mate! I used to live in BKK a few years back too, very cool country to be in. That price is pretty much on par with how much they are in Australia + around another $8KAUD for on roads costs. You would hope the warranty would be easier in Thailand I’m pretty sure they are made there 😳 heaps of cool accessories already available in Thailand 🤙🏻
Good dealer, should not be an issue..
Top vid bro. Keep up the good work! Will be looking out for the next one!
Thanks Mate, was looking if there was any kind of chip for the Raptor.
Please do more video. I need to know how this performs after installation. Cheers
More videos uploaded 👍🏻
Nice video Round the Fire so you would recommend this product to improve the performance of the truck also looking forward to your comparison videos
Thank You 👍🏻, IMO I think my Ute drives and performs more like the RAPTOR everyone was expecting to get from the showroom floor. I’m VERY happy so far.
Please mate do accelerations video 0 to 60mph, I’m curious how Is defense.. thx
Video is now live 👍🏻
I really enjoy watching the videos, great work
Thank you very much!
"KHAOSAN ROAD"Nice t-shirt and nice car too👍👍👍
Thanks Mate 👍🏻
Hi, i like your videos - great stuff! I would love to hear your opinion about the IDrive throttle controller. Do you think this device is any good? If yes, do you see any downsides when it comes to longevity of the truck as well? thanks in advance and regards from Austria.
Thank you, Im ordering one for my Bi Turbo 4x4 Everest
You won’t be disappointed mate 👍🏻
Hi Alex, any feedback on the DPChip in your Everest? I'm thinking about getting one myself.
@@RD-ni7qe Ive had it for about a year now and no complaints at all. Still performing like it should!
Hey mate..did you try top speed?without the dpchip.its 172kph,half a tank no load with passenger seat,maybe the limiter f is disabled can do more..thanks mate
Thanks mate, I haven’t really tried for top speed. I’m mostly chasing the torque gains from installing this chip 👌🏼
I see your trailer , must do a walk around video of it
Can do mate 👍🏻
good
vid mate! cheers for sharing
Cheers mate 👍🏻
Hey mate, great vid. Easy to follow and answers a lot of questions I’ve had about the chip itself. Thanks!! Also, how’s it on fuel after the chip? Use a bit more or does it also have some fuel saving benefits?
Cheers Thank you 👍🏻, my over all fuel consumption has gone down a fair bit. I definitely notice that I’m using the first third of the throttle only. I’ve just finished a 800k round trip camping towing a 1.4T trailer and my fuel average was at 12L/100, video on that coming soon 👍🏻
Great video, excellent instructions.....do you think this has increased your towing weight or ability..? cheers
It won't increase your towing weight as those figures are set by the manufacturer regardless of power mods, I certainly feel it makes the job easier.
Do a video on how it drives now
Cheers Mate, working on that now.
Nice T-shirt 'bro!
Hi Damo, thks for the great vids. I also tow a camper that weighs about 1500 kgs from time to time. Fully loaded and with the wife and two teenagers the weight starts getting up there. I was wondering if you ever thought about getting a wildtrack with the 3.2 engine and bigger towing capacity and dp chipping it to give more of a buffer to the engine and max weight limits (apart from the raptor just being more fun generally :)) ....cheers
G’day mate, I actually was intending to get an XLT 3.2L originally as I feel like that was the best bang for your buck in terms of payload and not being too concerned about keeping an eye on the kids as they get in and out making the shiny interior a mess. The hardest decision I had to make about choosing the 2.0L over the 3.2L was there wasn’t at the time, much real world information about the 2.0. After owning the 2.0L now for 18 months I think the real benefits of it over the 3.2L is the 10 speed gearbox, the extra 4 gears allows the engine run at a fairly low stress range in terms of RPM and that produces good results (for me at least) as far as fuel economy goes. A huge benefit of the Raptor vs Wildtrack is the ride quality on and off road given the all round coil suspension. They are both very good looking trucks, if you are planning on kitting your truck out more traditional looking with bar work and canopy the a leaf sprung is probably the way I would go. If you can think light weight set up then coils are well worth it. Hope that helps 👍🏻
@@RoundTheFire Mate, thats great...thks for all the info and the vids...I'm looking at swapping from a Jeep Wrangler Rubicon in August and the Raptor is looking like a great option ....cheers
@@rayzerstayzer1947 definitely a fair bit more room to carry gear in the Raptor mate. You won't be disappointed. The Raptor will do a better job pulling your trailer. I Changed out from a 150 series Prado to the Raptor and am very happy.
What's the change to HP and lb. feet of torque for all of us North American Neanderthals still on SAE?
Gday Steve, 1KW = 1.34HP and 1Nm = 0.74ft-lb
Such a great video... I was looking for vids on the install just a week ago and found nothing... you've put my mind at ease now. Do you find yourself adjusting the torque controller much for on road use? Or is there a setting specifically for road, specifically for off road? Looking forward to the next clip... cheers
Gday Mate, There are 3 settings pre programmed into the throttle controller, Sport +, Sport and Off Road/ECo. A single button cycles between the pre programmed settings, I found the Sport + mode works best for me, makes driving easier. Basically I have just been using the 1 setting for ON and OFF road, no need to continually adjust the controller, set and forget. The biggest difference I've noticed is that i never use Sport mode in the Raptors terrain modes anymore keeping the revs way down and fuel economy low.
G’day Damo
Just watched this as I picked up my Raptor last week. Very thorough and great walk through, well done.
With the twin turbo they spin up the Revs pretty quickly in 1st and 2nd. Does the chip take advantage of the extra torque it provides and change the mapping to get it to change gear earlier?
Cheers Shane
G’day Shane, congratulations on the new truck mate 😎 the chip itself won’t remap the gearbox, however the gearbox has an adaptive feature and will adjust its shifting accordingly. Keep in mind that 1st and 2nd gear in the Raptors 10 speed box are actually a lower ratio than 1st gear in a normal 6 speed box. From memory I think the Raptors 3rd is the closest gear to a standard 1st gear.
What I’ve found is after installing the chip I no longer use sports mode which by design keeps the engine in a higher rev range. I simply take advantage of the extra Kw and torque provided by the chip with the relaxed driving feel of normal mode. 👍🏻
Round The Fire Thanks Damo, I had the last 3.2 remapped and it was a different truck! 180kw and 620nm. A much torquier lazy motor than the 2.0 and in my opinion better suited to my driving style than the Raptor, I think 8 gears wold have been plenty but Ford don’t have that box. I have just purchased the Ngauge with the 10 speed remap they do which speeds up the shifts, increases the torque between changes and forces the box to use all gears instead of revving it’s nut off to shift from 1st to 3rd to 5th. I will let you all know how it goes it’s from BPT Motorsport in WA. Cheers and thanks for you input in all your vids mate👍
What help does power chip to the engine of raptor? In general
Great video mate, did you buy the option with common rail injection?
Yep that's the one mate.
Now I think I want to do this to my raptor 🤔.
It is literally that easy to install. No camera tricks. I honestly believe it a reasonable/reliable/mature tune up without compromising the ECU integrity or coming close to the engines max capability.
Hey, where are the video's promised with the chip, 0-100 times, overtaking acceleration, we know out of the factory it's slow at 10.5 0-100 what does the chip give you, is it worth the extra $1500 for the chip and $300 for the PlugNGo
Gday mate, I’m having a hard time editing the video together but it’s coming. Without spoiling the next video if you were looking for a drag Ute, this isn’t the way to go, but well worth it for Towing and Fuel economy.
New video is now live
@@RoundTheFire 👍👍
Also mate did you test performance after installing just the chip? I'm keen to know the difference with just chip in VS chip+throttle controller in... was the chip the bigger performance increase or was adding the throttle controller ?
I did take the Rig out with only the chip in when I first installed it. It was noticeably better but I found myself still wanting to select sport mode to get that little bit extra. Without a doubt the chip combined with the throttle controller really gives the Raptor the bite I think it was lacking from the show room. I would HIGHLY recommend installing both together, you won't be disappointed...I got mine in a bundle package so the throttle controller was free.
@@RoundTheFire yeah I noticed there was a Christmas bundle for both through DP Chip directly... perhaps they'll offer the same promotion at Easter time... only just picked up my ranger last Friday.
Congrats on the new truck mate!! Get out there and enjoy it, if you are in the Brizzy area I know a ton of great tracks.
@@RoundTheFire cheers mate... im on the Gold Coast, but am clueless when it comes to off road tracks.
Hey mate... how you travelling with the performance review video? Been checking daily for updates 😁
Cheers
awesome
All it does is increase the common rail pressure from around 29,000psi to 34-35,000psi. It doesn't change boost, it doesn't change anything else. A good ECU tune is a far better option for any CRD car or 4X4.
I'm actually disappoint that Berrima Diesel are selling these things; those blokes know better than that.
Hi Damo, will you buy a chip again for the new Raptor? In other words, is it worth the price?
Henri how are you mate, yes I’ll definitely be adding a new DP Chip to the 2020 Raptor. In fact it has already arrived at my house and will be doing a new install video on that shortly. The main benefit for me is the extra Torque for towing and it never hurts to have the extra grunt when needed. They are a little bit pricey but you will appreciate it once you are loaded up for a trip. 👍🏻🇦🇺
@@RoundTheFire and how about the speed sir, does it add more speed, assuming this raptor has a max. Speed of about 180km/h, if you installed the dp chip, then how much that would increase then.
Can you give mi a link to buy one a raptor biturbo 2.0
www.roundthefire.store/shop-2
Hey mate. I assume this will work for the PX3 Wildtrak Biturbo 2.0 engine as well? since to my knowledge there is no difference between the Raptor and the Wildtrak engine...
Exactly right, there is a DP CHIP for the Wildtrack, Available on our website www.roundthefire.store
Nice work! Is the DP Chip specific to the Raptor, or compatible with other Ranger models??
Gday David, This particular DP Chip should suit any of the Ford 10 speed, 2Lt Bi-Turbo models. Certainly worth the investment IMO.
Right on. 👍
You’re welcome mate 👍🏻🇦🇺
I’d be interested to hear what this does to your fuel consumption. Given there is no boost connection 100% of any gains are by dumping in extra fuel. Not ideal.
G’day mate. I installed this chip when the engine was only 300ks old.
From 300-3000ks the fuel use was 1L/100ks better than stock??
From 3000-25000ks I’m running 1L/100ks over stock.
So what happens when you take it in to the dealership for warranty work and they say na screw ya mate you've effd with it under warranty?
Gday Mate, The place where I’ve bought the chip from offers full warranty on driveline and engine for the duration of the new car warranty. In my case for the next 5 year and unlimited K’s. There is an interesting debate going on in the 4x4 world in Australia right now regarding new car warranty and if a dealer can void your warranty from doing very simple mods like Bullbars, side steps, roofracks, dual battery systems, things that just about every 4x4 owner does without much thought.
Nice vid bro !! I’ve got the 2019 Wildtrack with the same motor and drive train. It should be the same yeah ??? Cheers 👍🏻
It should be the same? I’ve had a look at the Berrimah Diesel site where I got mine from and they do list the PX3 Ranger 2.0L, 10speed as a seperate item...? I wouldn’t imagine the fitting would be any different, I think the main difference between the PX3 2.0L and the Raptor 2.0L is the amount of shift patterns built into the computer. Best bet would be to call wherever you are looking at getting one from and check with them 👍🏻
Round The Fire Thanks for the feed back Bro. I’ll suss it out !! 👍🏻😁
I wonder what happens when your engine shits itself how much that warranty covers in real life.
So this simply raises fuel pressure? How did you come to the conclusion that a proper custom ECU remap on a Dyno wasnt the go for simular money? Cant be factory warranty as ford can detect use of DP Chip.
Gday mate, the main reason I went with the DP chip over an ECU tune is because 6 months ago when I installed this unit there wasn’t a tuner in the land that could crack the ECU codes on a Raptor, Also I liked the ability to simply disconnect the DP chip if there was any problem with it and send the unit away for repair or replacement rather than have to go back to the same tuner to work out the bugs 👍🏻
Will the chip damage the engine eventually?
Vũ Nguyễn it's big risk having one of these. But the wiser would say this is reversible in the event of a warranty claim. However people don't realize these are traceable via dealer level scan computers. Just buy the car that you're happy with it's power from the factory. Not worth spending hundreds and then making a mess of the engine because you're chasing power.
Probably. 600nm is a mountain of torque.
Might effect the longevity hence the ‘safe working loads ‘ manufacturers build in. The tune won’t affect us first owners of the vehicles.
Are you still happy with the chip 6 months on? Performing well? No dramas?
G’day Dan, I’m very happy with the chip, I initially installed the chip when the engine was 300ks old. Now I’m at the 15000k mark with zero issues. Performance wise, I’ve found the chip comes with a fairly mild tune installed from factory (you have the ability to manually bump it up if you wish). Out of the box the chip is certainly wild enough that you can notice the difference straight away but it’s not trying to ring the neck out of the engine which I would have to say is the feature I love the most.
Round The Fire nice mate. So how much have you bumped it up from the setting it was on when you got it? I just ordered one today. Cheers.
Mate, I have left the settings on the chip alone and just run it as it has come out of the box. I’ve actually wound down the throttle controller to the middle setting and down to 3 orange lights. Seems to bring the power on nicely rather than wanting to launch itself off at every set of lights.
I’ve had guys write to me saying they have bumped the chip up to max output and say it’s wild. Personally my main reason for the chip was the torque gains for towing 👍🏻
Do you remove it before each service to the dealership?
You can if you like, once you unplug it there is no trace it was ever on there. Not much point for me since I posted this on the internet 👍🏻😎🍺🇦🇺
Thanks for another great video Damo. What mode do you find you use the most during city driving? Have you found it takes the lag out of the normal driving mode?
Gday Nath, Mate after I put the chip in I generally don’t use anything other than normal mode. TBH I think the throttle controller made the biggest difference for day to day and around town driving 👍🏻
Gday mate,
i just got my dpchip a while ago. Do you know how to adjust the settings from it? Like the best sitting we can get, i dont understand how to adjust it, alot of color combination heheh thanks much.
GDay Mate, Thanks for watching. Your DP Chip will come pre programmed from the factory with the best settings as the default, there shouldn't be any need to adjust it, that is why they are so simple. Have you have changed your factory intercooler, turbo or exhaust to an aftermarket product? This would really be the only time you would need to adjust the settings.
Round The Fire getting a full exhaust system does it affect the tuning?
If you upgrade your exhaust it will allow better flow for the exhaust gasses. Giving you more power. It won’t affect the tuning as such but it would certainly allow you the option to tune up the chip if you wanted to.
Round The Fire nice... one more thing i dont have the truck info on my ranger ranger raptor, not an issue for me but, others my friend they have the truck info, no idea how i can activate or install the truck info on my rig. Any idea?
@@almahdieddun9688 Its not possible so far to tune the ECU, no one has cracked the code yet.
Is there a website to order thanks mate
Sure is mate 👍🏻

@@stuartronneberg9862 Thanks Mate...It took 2 years later but you can now buy these Chips from our website.
www.roundthefire.store
Do you have tune it after chipping it?
G'day Mustafa, The tune is already installed into the chip. If this chip wasn't going onto a raptor for example and you decided latter to add a bigger exhaust, turbo or intercooler to your vehicle you can adjust or "tune" the chip to suit these changes. hope that makes sense.
Where is this made?
Germany
Can I get a chip for a Holden Colorado, and where,. Ross
Gday Ross, try these guys.

that's great it comes with the 5 year engine warranty .. so when your engine blow up you don't have to cry to ford nothing agist you guys
as a mechanic , there are some people thinks its manufactures fault ..
That’s exactly right mate, if the shop you are going to get a tune from can’t offer a warranty on their product. Is Probably a good idea to keep shopping around. 👍🏻
Cool vid and the mod looks great, but by showing your plates, you have pretty much voided your drive train warranty.
Thanks mate. The best part about installing a DP Chip vs anything else is that DP Chip warrant your engine and drive line for the remainder of your new car warranty...in my case I’ve had the chip on for 12 months so I’ve still got another 4 years worth of cover 🍺🤙🏼
Pretty sure I mentioned that in the video at @4.35?? 🤔
@@RoundTheFire Yeah, I just know Ford can be total pricks when it comes to warranty from experience. They will try to use it for every little thing.
How to make an already unreliable vehicle more unreliable
Thanks for watching 🤙🏻
Is yours unreliable? or are you speculating-
steve hill sorry late reply I work on these cars for a living and reliability on all ford products is an issue !
Haha sorry to inform you but this 2 liter is hopeless. My old 3.2 was chipped and made 200rwhp that is about 190kw at the crank and 700nm.
Hieu Nguyen haha? then you apoligise? inform? comparing apples with oranges little buddy.
How did she ride? your old 3.2?
because nobody gives 2 fucks what your old this or that had or does. fuckboi
All diesels are hopeless. A LS swap will fix the truck
@@stevefractalhilly6245 actually there are some who gives a shit. I also have a 2016 wildtrack and i find the new raptor just a sticker with some tweaks. The raptor should be also about engine performance, not just the suspension tuning.
Ranger raptor should be the ideal vehicle for us the performance truck enthusiasts, but with the 2l engine......being left in dust by far by the amarok and the new mercedes X v6......no thank you. I'd rather import the real raptor or the US petrol powered ranger.
@@octavianc Just some tweaks? Then yo obviously have no idea about the build of the Raptor. I ordered a raptor, but knowing the Amarok and Merc are quicker did not phase me one little bit nor do I give 2 shits. I bought my Raptor for my own personal reasons. Besides, all these knockers talk about the lack of horsepower by the Raptor, 99% of you cant drive for shit anyhow so why do you need the big horses? I thought I might add that I have been involved in motorsport for 27 years before just recently retiring from the sport. From what I see on the roads today, 50% of drivers should not have a car with more than 50kw, 40% should never own a driving licence and the rest, 10% are ok.
@@powderskier5547 speaking from ur 27 years experience all the sudden made you an expert. Ill out drive u any day. Go back to ur go cart racing old man.
cannot see for the life of me the two plug points trying to do this fucking chip
Only one plug point. Follow the common rail all the way to the back. That the plug. Disconnect it, plug the chip into those 2 ends
m.ua-cam.com/video/OAabUIw174A/v-deo.html
no dyno run to prove claim, ok.
Its bullshit oz and nz dont get a proper Raptor. Comeon ford give us the F150 v8 option
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Why would anyone want to do this. If your vehicle is not powerful enough get one that is.wast of money.
That’s exactly what I think about gym memberships. 🍺
It's not a good idea to install this "jumper"chip, what does it do is intercept the single from your sensors And give a false reading so the ECU will not pull timing etc, usually they intercept the coolent temp and IAT.
Want more power buy a landcruiser
Like everyone else and his tradie mate? No thanks, not over a Raptor. . Toyotas are cars for people who know nothing about cars. The default choice for the average Joe who cares nought about style.
