TDi North, the sister company to Torque Developments International Plc, is pleased to announce a change of management at its successful Warrington based tuning facility. As of the 11th January 2010 Paul West has been appointed Managing Director of TDi-North, having previously been employed at TDi North in a workshop and trackside focused role.

“I am sure that this appointment further strengthens the already excellent team at TDi-North, which has been behind some of the most successful high performance tuned Japanese cars since 2004,” says TDi-Plc Chairman Mark Catchpole.

TDi North’s facilities include a 4wd drive chassis dynomometer rated to 1600bhp, a fully equipped workshop and accreditation from the US based EFI University – commonly regarded as the bench mark qualification amongst tuning companies.

TDi North Ltd is an official dealer for TODA, Hondata, HKS (FCON Power writer), Spoon Sports, Tein, Crower, Millers oils, Energy Suspension as well as supplying AEM, Apexi, Blitz, DC Sports, GruppeM, Mugen, Quaife and Jackson Racing products.

The company that’s renowned for producing big numbers from its customer’s cars is now pleased to announce a new sales initiative based around a big, fat zero. That’s because leading British Japanese tuning house TDi Plc can now offer its retail sales customers more choice and peace of mind, in the form of six months credit, at 0% interest.

Subject to status and approval, TDi’s interest free credit offer is available for the purchase, installation and tuning for the following high quality brands:  

• HKS
• MUGEN
• TODA Racing

With a massive variety of upgrades available from these three suppliers suitable for popular models from Honda, Mazda, Mitsubishi, Toyota and Subaru, enhancing your Japanese vehicle’s performance and style has never been easier, thanks to Torque Developments International!

Torque Developments International in co-operation with Xtreme Motorsport deliver a podium finish at Silverston in September 08.

This 24 hour endurance race is one of the most demanding events in the Motorsport calendar, which tests the cars to the very limits of reliability and performance.

We were contracted to take over an ECU installation and calibration from another company that had failed to deliver. The company had the car for 3 months without even getting the engine fired up successfully, whereas we were in a “mission accomplished” position within a few days.

Several other wiring issues came to light during testing and the actual race which we successfully dealt with, that ensured that the car finished the race, and the drivers got on the podium.

Here’s the brand new ’08 BMW 1 Series with 3.0 straight 6 engine.

Here’s the 1 Series giving a Mosler something to worry about.

The drivers requested the ECU to be modified to add fuel on the over-run to throw flames out of the exhaust. This is not good from an engineering perspective, but I have to admit it looks quite spectacular and does please the crowd!

Torque Developments international have become one of the few authorised installers of Quaife Automatic Torque Biasing (ATB) limited slip differentials (LSD’s).

Quaife ATB’s are available for most cars and can be installed at Torque Developments International.
