ECU Remapping
\nEngine Control Unit (ECU): what is it and what does it do?<\/h2>\n
\n
The ECU (\u2018Engine Control Unit\u2019) is sometimes referred to as the brain of the car. The ECU monitors data from various sensors and ensures your engine is running at its optimal performance. This data is interpreted using performance maps (relevant tables) to ensure excellent performance, whether the output is low or high. Elements such as the engine\u2019s fuelling, ignition timing, boost, and torque values are calibrated within the ECU code depending on the quality of the fuel, the altitude and how your car, van, motorhome, truck or tractor is used.<\/div>\n
\n

 <\/p>\n

ECUs are far from simple in modern cars and no two units are alike. At Top Tuning, we have in-depth knowledge of the technical complexities that arise with each new generation, especially with BOSCH, Siemens, Delphi, Magnetti Marelli and Denso, and can providing the cutting edge expertise required in order to make your vehicle faster, more fuel efficient or more powerful, according to your preferences.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”full_width_content” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”none” equal_height=”yes” content_placement=”middle” vertically_center_columns=”true” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”column_reverse” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none” shape_type=””][vc_column column_padding=”padding-2-percent” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_spacing=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/2″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1609690413865{padding-top: 30px !important;}”]\n

Professional ECU remapping\/programming: what is it?<\/h3>\n

Two identical makes and models of new car in a showroom may seem identical \u2013 but can be very different once bought and driven away.<\/p>\n

Lower quality fuels, extreme differences in temperature and altitude, points of difference in emission laws, lack of regular servicing or servicing not in line with the car manufacturer guidelines can all affect how a vehicle performs.<\/p>\n

Therefore, there is no \u2018one size fits all\u2019 of ECU programme (or map) for ensuring optimal performance of fuel efficiency with any new car; a\u00a0 manufacturer must consider all operating condition variables across all sales regions. This results in compromises to the ECU programme.<\/p>\n

ECU remapping\u00a0means removing those compromises to ensuring the engine\u2019s pure and intended performance.<\/p>\n

At Top Tuning, we achieve this by reading the ECU\u2019s processing chip of the standard compromised map and fine-tuning elements within it such as fuel pressure, boost pressure (for turbocharged applications) ignition advance and throttle pedal control. The result is a customised engine that delivers increased power \u2013 and even decreased fuel consumption.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_spacing=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/2″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” bg_image_animation=”zoom-out-reveal” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][image_with_animation image_url=”6064″ animation=”Fade In” hover_animation=”none” alignment=”” border_radius=”none” box_shadow=”none” image_loading=”default” max_width=”100%” max_width_mobile=”default”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”full_width_content” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” equal_height=”yes” content_placement=”middle” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” bg_color=”#045184″ scene_position=”center” text_color=”custom” custom_text_color=”#ffffff” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overlay_strength=”0.5″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none” shape_type=””][vc_column column_padding=”padding-4-percent” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_spacing=”default” centered_text=”true” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][split_line_heading animation_type=”line-reveal-by-space” font_style=”h3″ text_color=”#ffffff” content_alignment=”default” mobile_content_alignment=”inherit” text_content=”Different engines & how remapping works” max_width=”500″][\/split_line_heading][tabbed_section style=”default” alignment=”center” spacing=”side-30px” tab_color=”Accent-Color”][tab icon_family=”none” title=”Turbocharged Diesel Engines” id=”1648375065975-4″ tab_id=”1648375065976-0″][vc_row_inner column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” text_align=”left”][vc_column_inner column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_spacing=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/2″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_column_text]\n
