How To Upgrade 2.0L TDCi Engine (Ford Duratorq) 150 to 180 hp and + 50 Nm of torque

In this video, I show you how to upgrade with FORScan your Ford vehicle (Mondeo in my case) equipped with the DURATORQ 2.0 TDCi 150 engine, in order to upgrade it at 180 hp and 400 Nm of torque.
As mentioned, it is the same engine block for the 150 and 180 hp. A setting in the ECU limits the power to 150 hp and 350 Nm.

- An ODBII adapter: amzn.to/2VBZf2Q

I tried this and happy with the results. Also the increase in torque after 1500rpm is very noticable. Thanks

[@harryfishfork1613]

I hope you changed the ABS module setting to 180 HP as well? That isn't mentioned in this video 🤦‍♂️

Anybody knows if it is also possible to upgrade the 2.0 TDCI Duratorq Mondeo MK IV from stock 115 hp to 150 hp or 163 hp without needing the change of physical parts?

[@funnya656]

It doesn't come up with power rating on my forscan just engine number and bhp so not a clue what to go for only a few say dw10 on it any ideas I seen the 180 bhp one but says 2.2 engine would that be ok

I see people saying about reconfiguring the ABS module. All ive got in mine is a fault code in there, regardless of it being stock or this map. I dont have the option to change the power in the module on my 2016 Smax, can anyone help?

[@CarlitaFernanna]

How do i do this i can only view it in "as-built" format ?

[@Attic-Toy-Design]

I have done the 183 a 2.0L TDCi DW10F power rating 3. Very good. What happens if I do the 184 - 210PS power rating 4? Works? Thanks.

[@alexthebest68]

The version with 210 P is for bi-turbo version. Power Rating 1, 2, 3 have only one turbo. Be careful because you will probably damage smth.

[@MuhammadSh-ie8rz]

Does this work after engine upgrade from 2.3 to 2.5 on mk4?

[@JohnDoe-pn3qu]

Hi, great video! I would like to try this on my 2013 Ford Kuga MK2 2.0DCTI 140HP. According to all/only info I can find online and in my 'Haynes Manual', with this engine there can be an increase up to 180HP as you show in your video with Forscan. I could also find that in the 'dealer-official 180HP' the engine has the same stroke&bore, but different compression-ratio. Now, I am not super technical in car mechanics and wonder how it is possible to change this compression-ratio, without changing any physical parts on the engine (like for example cilinderhead? How does this software change the compression-ratio needed to upgrade the power? Maybe dumb question, but I hope somebody can explain before i F.... up my car....☠

[@GBOB68]

Where did you get a Haynes manual for your kuga? I've been trying to get one for my mk1, but they only offer the autofix online manual.

[@MK-bs4bd]

What year is your car? Is it the ecoblue engine with adblue ?

[@zexxonije]

Ecoblue is a different engine from TDCi.

[@rok904]

I have just checked difference between engines and it seem everything except turbo charge is equivalent, am I right? Since I am not an expert hope turbo charger wont be at risk. Is everything ok after upgrade? :)

[@user-cj3mx4cy9q]

Turbos are indentical, one difference is intercooler core thickness (65 mm for 180 & 210 and 40 mm for 150)

You need to remove current car off forscan and make sure you have the correct elm cable with the toggle switch

@@sparky325 This is not true man. You don’t need to remove anything from Forscan. Leave it as it is.

As easy as that? by just chaninging engine type using Forscan? Sounds like a joke.. this really works?

[@harryfishfork1613]

Yes it does BUT you have to be careful. For instance, this guy makes no reference to the fact that you should also uprate your ABS module configuration to the 180hp value. If you do try it, make sure you back up all your original values first.
