Get a Car ECU Remap with our ECU Remapping Service

ECU high performance remapping or tuning is a process in which the software within the engines electronic control unit or ECU is modified through a car remap or the engine is tuned to allow the car to gain more power.  Getting a car remap is a great alternative to buying a new car, and can improve your engine performance and fuel economy by a significant degree.

 

Improve car performance and fuel economy

 

Many vehicle manufacturers use the same engine and ECU set up across a range of vehicles whilst producing varying power outputs, this allows the manufacturer to sell these different models for a greater profit without having to expand the supply network.  For example the Mercedes sprinter comes in varying power outputs from 95 Bhp up to 150 Bhp, all of these engines are identical so a stage 1 remap is completely safe for any of these models taking any of them from the stock factory power up to 185 BHP that’s a huge increase of 90 Bhp above the basic model all whilst staying within the safety tolerances set in place when the vehicle was designed.

Stage 1 ECU Remap for your vehicle

Stage 1 chip tuning is designed to work within the vehicles safe designed parameters and requires no hardware upgrades or for the vehicle to run on any special fuel when we remap the car.  Our specialist mechanics will remap your engine, ECU software, and service components in line with vehicle manufacturer guidance, allowing your car to give you more fuel economy resulting in more miles per gallon, higher performance and a greater service.  We also guarantee all of our performance car engine remaps and chiptuning services.

 

Stage 2 Chiptuning for your car

Stage 2 performance vehicle tuning requires hard ware modification to the car's engine ECU to allow the vehicle to reach the power stated.  As a general rule you would need to replace the engine stock air filter for a cold air feed induction kit, the engine intercooler would need to be upgraded and the stock car exhaust would need to be replaced for a performance sports cat. These modifications allow the remapped engine to get more air in and out freely enabling more power to be produced. Some vehicles will require additional driveline upgrades at stage 2 this can include an uprated clutch.

 

Stage 3 Performance Tuning & Remap

Stage 3 and above are real specialist and select tuning services and would require high powered upgrades to the engine turbo, fuel injectors and fuel pump and full dyno session to allow the vehicle engine to be live monitored or data logged.  The map would then be fine tuned and tweaks carried out to ensure a safe smooth power delivery to be achieved from the remapping, resulting in significant power and performance increase and higher fuel economy.
