Performance Tuning with Ecotune in Swindon

What is Performance Tuning?

Performance tuning, also known as ECU remapping, is the process of reprogramming your car’s engine control unit (ECU) to optimise its performance. Modern vehicles are built with conservative factory settings. This leaves untapped potential in the engine.

Through tuning, we adjust your car's parameters like fuel delivery, ignition timing, and boost pressure to safely unlock additional horsepower and torque. In short, we fine-tune the software that runs your engine, often without any physical modifications.

The result is a more powerful and responsive car, with smoother power delivery and improved overall performance, all while staying within the safe limits of your car’s engine.

• Increased Power & Torque: Get a significant boost in horsepower and torque after a tune. Many turbocharged engines can gain 15% or more in power, translating to faster acceleration and stronger pulling power.
• Enhanced Throttle Response: Tuning refines your engine’s characteristics, eliminating sluggish throttle lag. Your car will feel more responsive and eager, with power delivered smoothly across the rev range.
• Optimised Fuel Efficiency: A well-calibrated engine can improve fuel economy under normal driving conditions. The extra torque at lower RPMs means the engine doesn’t work as hard to cruise or accelerate gently, potentially increasing MPG.
• Maintained Reliability: All tuning we offer stays within safe limits of your engine and drivetrain. We partner with Ecotune, an industry leader, so the software has been extensively tested for durability. We never push your vehicle beyond what it can handle reliably, and our expert technicians are always on hand for post-tune support or future servicing needs.
