hey fellas!
moved from 2001 model to a 2010 one(2500cc, 2kd engine). both manual

start moving at an uphill with the 01' one was easy(even though it was weaker)- release the clutch and push the gas a bit.
on the 2010 model i find it challanging:

bringing the clutch to the engaging point, revving-up for a couple of seconds until it gets close to 2000rpm, and only than start moving.
it's the only way i can make it start moving at an uphill.
recently replaced the turbo + turbo unit(computer) when i bought this vehicle.

*i guess i'm not the only one with this power hasitation
*i actually prefer to have more power on low revs than final speed on highways
*is mounting a chip solves/helps with this issue?
*what else can be done?

cheers mates,
Guy
