ECU remapping is a tuning procedure of the engine, that allows several manufacturer constraints to be lifted from the vehicle. Sound confusing, click here for more information on what ecu remapping is & why these limitations are placed by vehicle manufacturers.

This is a very common question that we get asked. The answer is very simple, the factory could have remapped your car, however they choose not to for many reasons, the most important is marketing. Cars are manufactured to fit into a market category and there is certain criteria for make & model categories and the car’s ECU is mapped to fit into these categories. It also allows for a enough power separation between various models. Manufacturers will also produce two identical cars with identical engines, then simply offer the car in two states of tune, this is a very economical way of extending a model range. Examples of such cars include the BMW Mini One and the BMW Mini Cooper, another example is the VW Golf Tdi 104BHP and the Golf TDi 140bhp.

We always remap with consideration for the engine and never exceed the engine’s limits.
