What Is An ECU Tune?
The simple explanation of ECU tuning is that it is the process of editing the settings within the ECU. The goal of ECU tuning is to increase the power of the engine to which the ECU belongs.
ECU stands for Engine Control Unit and is a computer that is installed in most modern engines. The ECU can be thought of as an engine’s brain. The ECU controls how powerful an engine can be within its settings and sends the signal to the engine. You can tune the ECU on many different engines like cars, trucks, tractors, bikes and even marine vehicles. ECU tuning also gives you the option to adjust emission settings in diesel engines, this solution can help people save fuel and avoid breakdowns caused by failing or blocked emissions systems.
