Truck Tuning Frequently Asked Questions
Why doesn't the factory do it?
The manufacturer develops a vehicle for the international market. In doing so, they have to consider various framework conditions such as national emission standards, regional differences in temperature, different types of fuel or specific categories of insurances in different countries. This means that an ex-works vehicle needs to be equipped for a wide range of different influencing factors. The adjustment of the above-mentioned parameters to one single target market can therefore be carried out only by ECU remapping.
Can you save me fuel?
When we remap a vehicle, especially when fuel saving is the priority we focus on improving the low end torque in particular and widening the power-band as far as we can.
This increase in low end torque will mean less throttle pedal input is required to maintain cruising speeds, when fully laden or when on a gradient. It will also mean that the vehicle will be more comfortable in higher gears at slower speeds as well requiring fewer gear changes overall.
If you combine these factors with adjusting your driving style to make the most of the extra low end torque you will see an improvement in fuel consumption. This is most effective on turbo-diesel engines where the savings could be as much as 20%!
What is ECU remapping?
When a manufacturer develops a new car they have to take into consideration all of the conditions it may be subjected to in all of the regions in which they intend to sell this model. This means instead of just optimising the ECU’s program or ‘map’ to deliver the best performance or the most fuel efficiency they have to make compromises to the map to take into account these potential differing operating conditions. These could include sub-standard fuels, extremes in temperature and altitude, differing emission laws and even the possibility that vehicle may not be serviced on a regular basis and in accordance with the manufacturers recommended instructions.
ECU remapping is taking a read from the ECU’s processing chip of the vehicles standard compromised map and adjusting various parameters within the map such as fuel pressure, boost pressure (on turbocharged applications) ignition advance and throttle pedal control amongst others to release the true performance from the engine. It is a completely safe process as it is just giving the engine the performance it should have had in the first place before all the compromises were applied to the original programming. Every engine will have its own unique map and by adjusting this we can fine tune the characteristics of the engine; unleashing more power and in many cases reduce fuel consumption too.
What are the benefits?
ECU programming will not only improve the engines power and torque figures it will also sharpen the throttle response and widen the power band. This will make the power delivery a lot more linear, which in turn will make the vehicle feel a lot livelier to drive and the engine more flexible. Frequently, the vehicles power output is restricted by the manufacturer for no other reason than to ensure that the vehicle fits into a class to suit fleet buyers. As a driving enthusiast, you do not need or want such restrictions placed upon your vehicles ECU and its performance therefore you can benefit from the hidden power and torque locked away within your engine management system.
The other main benefit of remapping will be a reduction in fuel consumption. With the extra torque especially at the bottom of the rev range you will see a fuel saving as it will require less throttle input to maintain motorway speeds, you can drive in a higher gear at a slower speed as well as helping significantly when fully laden, towing or on gradients and even in start stop traffic.
Specific benefits for turbo diesels
Many see the modern crop of Turbocharged diesels as the future of road car’s chip tuning. Even in North America, a nation famed for its love of the petrol engine is starting to come around to the benefits of turbo diesel passenger cars in particular. These engines offer fantastic potential for reliable low cost tuning without removing any of the appeal of buying and running a turbo diesel powered vehicle, such as economy, reliability and longevity.
After your ECU upgrade to your turbocharged diesel engine, you will enjoy:
- Increased horsepower
- Increased torque
- Better throttle response
- Smoother power delivery
- Improved fuel economy
- Safer overtaking.
What we can do for your tractor and how we do it.
Our team of specialist dealers come to you, find out what you require. They then read your ECU data with specialist tools. We then modify your ECU data to achieve what you require. Our dealers then load the software back in, log the machine running and do a field test to ensure you are happy.
Reliable and economical agricultural machines are an important part of every farmer’s work. No matter if you have a tractor, a combine harvester or a forestry machine – we develop technologies for a more efficient use. By using our economy and fuel saving tunes you can achieve lower fuel consumption for your agricultural machine, you reduce running costs and at the same time receive a better performance.
Tractor tuning can achieve torque increase by up to 30%, an increase of horsepower by up to 20% and a reduction of fuel consumption by up to 5–15%. Due to our ECU software, a reduction in fuel consumption is achieved very often while the driving style stays the same. How does that work? By shifting the torque. This enables the driver to drive at a lower engine speed and reduces fuel consumption. After our tune, your tractor has the same power at a lower torque as compared to before with a higher torque
Truck Tuning for all makes and models
Power Gains & Fuel Economy
Our power gains and improved fuel economy are achieved by carefully matching parameters such as boost pressure, fuel delivery rates, and pump timing and adjusting maps that electronically limit torque, throttle response, and top speed.
All this information in your ECU calibration file is carefully optimised to our exacting standards, programmed back into your ECU, and the vehicle is comprehensively tested before we allow you to take it away.
Efficiency and Safety
When creating our truck and commercial turbo diesel engine ECU tunes, our aim is to improve the power and torque curves while improving fuel economy, yet retain all the safety parameters originally programmed into the engine management by the manufacturer to protect your engine and drive train from damage
