STEINBAUER P-Box UK Exclusive
for Alfa Romeo

The Steinbauer P-Box
for Alfa Romeo Diesels is now exclusively available in the UK through
Auto Lusso.
20% more power and 20% more torque gives more response at even low
rpm and stronger mid range acceleration, overtaking becomes not
only quicker, but safer too. Gear change frequency is reduced and
the drive feels more sporty.
Advantages of the P-Box system over
Engine Re-mapping
The P-Box fitted by Auto Lusso far exceeds the technique of re-mapping
for the following reasons:
Money Back Guarantee
If for any reason you are not happy with the P-Box supplied by Auto Lusso we provide a full money back guarantee for 2 weeks after purchase,
this means the P-Box can be removed from the car which will then
be back to the original manufactures specification.
Only Tuning Upgrade with a Warranty
The P-Box is the only tuning upgrade that comes with a warranty
for damage caused by the installation of the product:
Software Remapping is often Irreversible
When a company offers to re-map your car they download software
to your car which they have either purchased or written themselves.
This software can then be downloaded on to as many vehicles as required.
This is extremely cost-effective for the company providing the re-mapping,
as they incur only initial purchase costs however, in many cases
the software can be unstable, irreversible and always with out warranty
and can case excessive smoke from the exhaust.
P-Box Features Tuning Options
The P-Box has adjustments within the box so the user can fine tune
the performance of the box to suit their own individual requirements.
The standard increase in performance is 20% but if you open up the
box you can adjust the performance up or down 30% of the 20% gained.
Auto Lusso has been selling new Alfa Romeo
cars for many years and in the past we have purchased equipment
to re-map cars but we have found this to be unreliable. The only
product that we use or recommend for new Alfa Romeos is P-Box. As
the owner of a new car the last thing you want to do is to invalidate
the manufactures warranty, the P-Box has its own 3 year warranty
to run alongside your manufacturer’s warranty.
We believe the P-Box is the best product available for the Alfa
Romeo range, so much so that we have taken up the opportunity of
having exclusive selling rights to this product in the UK.
There is a Sport Version of the P-Box that will give a larger increase
of power but this product only comes with a one year guarantee on
the unit itself. We will supply this product but we do not advise
its use on new cars. This will take the 1.9 JTD M-Jet from 150 BHP
to 200 BHP and on the 159 2.4 JTD M-Jet can increase power from
200BHP to 270 BHP this also requires the use of an upgraded air
filter.
The Three-years’ Warranty on the
STEINBAUER P-Box
The STEINBAUER Tuning Technologies Austria GmbH issues a warranty
for damage on engine, gearbox and transmission according to the
warranty confirmation.
Cost-binding additional or agility guarantees and all components
of the automobile which are not related to the power enhancement
are not included in this warranty.
Exception:
Upgraded versions (Sport Version) of the STEINBAUER P-Box are supplied
only on demand of the customer. In this case STEINBAUER Tuning Technologies
Austria GmbH does not offer a warranty for engine, gearbox and power
train.
On the STEINBAUER P-Box a 3 years’ warranty is granted, but
only in case of appropriate use and correct installation.
