You may think remapping and tuning is the preserve of upmarket performance cars, but many vehicles from a humble van to a high performance sports car can benefit from a specialist ECU remapping.
Whether you drive a new or older vehicle, performance car, city runabout or work van we have the expertise, experience and state of the art equipment to save you money at the pumps and boost your engine's performance.
At our Goole premises, we can provide a remap to suit your particular requirements. Perhaps your priority is improved fuel economy? If so we can remap your ECU accordingly. Likewise, if you want a more powerful and responsive drive we can help.
What is remapping?
Put simply, it's a form of brain surgery for your vehicle designed to improve performance and economy. We at R-DSGN in Goole have a wealth of experience in providing remaps for a variety of vehicle types.
Even if a decade or two old, your vehicle will likely be fitted with an Electronic Control Unit (ECU). This 'electronic brain' controls various engine functions such as fuel mixture, ignition timing and turbo boost pressure (where fitted) to various pre-set parameters programmed into it at the factory.
One size fits all factory ECU settings
These 'one size fits all' factory settings are structured so the vehicles can meet a range of emission standards depending on where they're sold, withstand extreme conditions such as high or low temperatures and variations in fuel quality amongst other variables.
They also take into account a multitude of owners' driving styles and their varying adherence to servicing and maintenance schedules.
Different factory ECU mapping also means different performances can be achieved from a small number of engine designs, so saving on development and production costs.
For example, the same 1.0 three cylinder petrol engine is used by Ford in its Fiesta and Focus models in a variety of different power outputs and performance characteristic guises mostly due to varying ECU settings.
Is remapping an involved process?
Not particularly; we simply plug our specialist diagnostic equipment into your vehicle's ECU to find out how your vehicle is currently performing. These findings are analysed before we upload new software to your ECU with new settings parameters; in two hours or often less depending on make and model, your vehicle's performance is transformed.
The software we load onto your ECU is created especially for your car based on your needs; it's not an 'off the shelf' copy of software for your vehicle type. In short, we provide a true 'bespoke' service.
We guarantee your satisfaction with every bespoke remap we carry out. Call to discuss how we can help.
