Different types of ECU Remapping

Stage 1 Remap

A stage 1 remap is a true optimisation of the stock vehicles parameters within the ECU to unlock the potential power that the manufacturer has left on the table. Stage 1 remap come with a variety of fuel specifications which will result in a greater power result.


Stage 2 Remap

A stage 2 performance remap is the perfect upgrade for Hybrid Turbos, FMICs, induction kits, exhausts and downpipes. Stage two performance remapping employs a quality exhaust system with a good air intake filter or induction kit.


This, in turn, will create more heat, meaning you will need to upgrade the intercooler to provide your vehicle with a far greater core construction, a larger surface area and potentially a bigger inlet and outlet from the intercooler.


Stage 3 Remap

Stage 3 is the last state of tuning for most cars. What’s modified for a tune to be classed as stage 3 open to interpretation, but at the very least, it is here that an upgraded turbocharger/ supercharger, such as a hybrid turbo, is installed.

  • How long to tune my vehicle?

    A custom written OBD remap will usually take between 1-2 hours, depending on the vehicle. However, What if the main dealer wipes the map with a software update?


    some vehicles especially those requiring bench tuning or dyno can take up to a whole day. Get in contact with us for an idea of how long it will take us to tune your vehicle.

  • Can a remap be taken back off?

    Absolutely. We’ll be very surprised if that’s what you want after taking one of our remap products, however in the case of lease cars some customers prefer to put the car back to standard before returning the car. You might want it back to standard if you are visiting a dealer for warranty or service work.

  • Will a remap reduce the life of my engine?

    No. Our remaps are designed specifically to improve the performance of your vehicle whilst remaining within the tolerances of your vehicles’ components.


    Sadly, in an attempt to achieve ‘big numbers’ some other companies over tune engines, placing excessive stress on the engine, transmission, cooling systems, etc, leading to reduced life span and reliability of the vehicle. We pride ourselves in producing reliable remaps which do not overstress your vehicle but still produce impressive results.

  • Why choose a remap over a plug and play machine?

    ECU remapping is far superior to the diesel tuning boxes. When we remap an ECU it optimises various settings and parameters the ECU controls that a tuning box cannot as diesel tuning boxes can only give more fuel pressure.

What is ECU tuning?

ECU Remapping is a way of fine-tuning the vehicle’s brain’ to make it perform more efficiently. All vehicles have an ECU (Engine Control Unit) and the data file stored on the ECU tells the engine how to run. What we do is simply recalibrate the software on the ECU, either by connecting to the vehicle’s OBD (On-Board Diagnostic) port, bench tuning or by adding a plug and play tuning module kit. We can improve a vehicle’s fuel economy by up to 15%, or increase power by up to 40% using these methods. Remapping is sometimes known as chip tuning, which is an old method of tuning.
