WHAT IS ECU REMAPPING/PROGRAMMING?
When a manufacturer develops a new car they have to take into consideration all of
the conditions it may be subjected to in all of the regions in which they intend
to sell this model. This means instead of just optimising the ECU’s program or ‘map’
to deliver the best performance or the most fuel efficiency they have to make compromises
to the map to take into account these potential differing operating conditions. These
could include sub-standard fuels, extremes in temperature and altitude, differing
emission laws and even the possibility that vehicle may not be serviced on a regular
basis and in accordance with the manufacturers recommended instructions.
ECU remapping is taking a read from the ECU’s processing chip of the vehicles standard
compromised map and adjusting various parameters within the map such as fuel pressure,
boost pressure (on turbocharged applications) ignition advance and throttle pedal
control amongst others to release the true performance from the engine. It is a completely
safe process as it is just giving the engine the performance it should have had in
the first place before all the compromises were applied to the original programming.
Every engine will have its own unique map and by adjusting this we can fine tune
the characteristics of the engine; unleashing more power and in many cases reduce
fuel consumption too.
PLEASE NOTE
We will not carry out DPF or EGR software removal this will invalidate any warranty
on the vehicle & will also result in an MOT failure
We can remap most vehicles for power or economy
