      Can my vehicle be damaged by a tune?

      We have tuned thousands of vehicles over the last decade, all without damaging vehicles in any way - check out our reviews of our happy clients around the country.

      What is a tune?

      A tune (OR REMAP) is the process of removing the Original ECU software, and installing our modified (tuned) software. The software changes are are often subtle but give a massive improvement and incredible results!

      Ordinary to extraordinary!

      What is the difference between a tune and a chip?

      Chips 'piggyback' signals from a few (typically one or two) specific sensors in the vehicle, the ECU (computer) then adjusts commands to areas of the vehicle like boost and fuel pressure based on the 'false' information given by the  chip - this can cause problems with other systems in the vehicle, high exhaust gas temperature, over fueling, soot and much more!

      A Tune (or remap) is much more comprehensive and actually gives the ECU new commands using the accurate real time information from the vehicles sensors. Because a Tune can affect all of the systems involved in engine performance we don't have to strain one or two components beyond safe levels like a chip can. 

      A tune/ remap is a much more comprehensive way of getting a more from your turbo diesel - here are SOME of the components a remap can affect.

      • Timing of start and end of fuel injection

      • Type and duration of fuel injection-pulse

      • Constant Fuel rail pressure

      • Turbo boost

      • Exhaust Gas Recirculation cycles

      • Valve Timing

      • Electric Coolant pump run times

      • Air Fuel ratios

      • Throttle position

      • Gearbox shift points

      • Torque limits for each gear

      • Anti-pollution hardware

       

      What is our 7 day satisfaction guarantee?

      If you are not completely satisfied for any reason - we will return your vehicle to its original settings and return your payment in full.

      no questions asked!

       

      What is a dyno-developed proven Tune?

      A dyno-developed tune is exactly that - hours of research and development to create the perfect tune for a given model. Before we say a tune is proven, we road test our tuned vehicle for at least 6 weeks, sometime for months at a time before we offer that tune to the public.

      What can i expect from my Tune?

      improvements vary between makes, models and generations of vehicle - but you will have more torque, better throttle response, less turbo lag and improved fuel economy!*

      *improvement in fuel economy is typical but does depend on individual driving style
