2009 Defender 110 Puma 2.4 XS DCPU Rimini Red

Got the file late last night (talk about customer service on Guy Fawk's night!) and installed it this am.
Just a quick test drive so far, but very nice.
Basically, one can do everything one gear higher.
The big test was a tight roundabout near my house followed by a hill. Up to now I had to drop down to second and accelerate a lot up the hill to get into third. This morning I did the whole thing in third.....

HP increase supposed to be around 28 hp and torque 60 Nm.

I don't know, but my thinking is:
- if the motor "feels and sounds" happy,
- if the performance is improved,
- if the engine temperature does not increase,
- and if the fuel consumption does not increase and even possibly drops

there should not be any bad effect on the engine?

OK, may be the increase in torque could have a negative effect on the transmission, but that is a question of using the vehicle properly I suppose?

Did 200 km today, with about 1/3 off road (checking out a large property along the River Guardana). It is a different vehicle altogether. Your dreams come true. What the Defender should be out of the box. Not overdone. Just very nice to drive.
Like when you take out the plate at the back of the carburator of a Harley, or when you put a Screaming Eagle carb (I know that comment dates me a bit, it's all EFI on Harleys now....

Defender, Harley-Davidson: exactly the same concept. Same shape since conception, charisma, possibility to personalize, very high customer loyalty, performance simply adequate. Boldly going nowhere

HD is heavy to drive on the road (tried on our Alps, is like to drive a long truck) and impossible to drive off road, Defender is born to run off road.....

.....so HD is useless
