chipping JD 6215R

[cowboy1818]

Hi,
What would be a safe horsepower to chip a 6215r too.
Currently 223 at shaft.
Brilliant tractor with autoquad box
Would it be safe at 260?

Don't chip it

Remap the ECU

Power chips just increase fuel rail pressure and/or increase injector open duration

Modern engines stuffed with emissions bollox really don't like dealing with the extra soot

Remap will 'properly' analyse speed and load, and alter injection timing and duration. You'll get increased power without excess inefficiently burnt fuel getting pushed up the pipe



I've no idea how many more ponies your goat will happily live with, but plenty get tweaked to ludicrous numbers by the derv doctor

Remap to boosted power. Don't be greedy. Get boost switched off. Basically just have permanent boost

And get the remapper to delete the adblue when they're at it

does this affect resale value.
Had the tractor 3 months
2018 with 3k hours.
Hoping to get higher hp in future

What jobs are you doing with it, it's lacking hp?

We chipped a 2016 6155r up to 200 at the shaft with a steinbauer and ran it to to 5000 hrs with no issues .

Local contractor did the same with his 2015 6215r it's got high hours on now they just sold it recently and no issues no idea on hp but it was a steinbauer chip as well

What's a 215r meant to be on boost?

I think they're 30hp more but not 100% sure . The early ones were pretty dull tho

I thought it was a fair bit.

Don't remember thinking I'd be dropping much going from our t7 260 to a 215.

to pull 20 tonne trailer.
Needs to be faster to keep up with combine. tractor sprays/ploughs/drills
Can you speed tractor up on a autoquad gearbox?

260hp not sure if that’s at engine or pto

 

[cowboy1818]

240hp not sure if that’s at engine or pto

Mine was 223hp at shaft without laptop plugged in

How fast do you want it to go?

I looked tractor data has it at 252 max at the engine .

Best option is remap while on Dyno by someone who knows what they are doing (but how you judge that I don't know). Nowt wrong with steinbauer boxes by number out there I'd assume.
To be fair it's not hp that's lacking it's torque and how the power/torque curve is set with factory software which due to emissions regs is lacking, they want to keep engine revs up where they burn cleaner.

Not if it's a 50k already .

60

60

Buy a fastrac and re map it then . There's a 4220 locally remapped doing 70k .
