Are you considering Re-mapping your Car? Do you want to know how it is done, or how to do it yourself?
Re-mapping is the electronic tuning of your Cars ECU. It is also known as chip tuning.
When a car is designed the engine will be tuned down a certain amount so that it lasts a very long time. The engine is actually designed to run at its original specifications, and will run perfectly at those settings. You should also consider that if a car has the best engine possible, there would be no future improvements, and no future models to make more money!
A re-map can edit the settings stored in the ECU and increase your overall horsepower and torque.
On petrol-fuelled cars the effect is minimal, yet on a modern diesel car there can be an increase of 20-50% in power.
Common rail diesel engines have very high-pressure fuel systems, and can atomise the fuel to release its full power.
