The ECU Process
How it Works...
INSPECTION - VISUAL & MECHANICAL
Before connecting our tuning software, we will always do a visual and mechanical check of the vehicle. We will check for any obvious signs of damage or alarming noises coming from the vehicle that may hinder us from being able to perform a tune.
​
READING & REMOVING THE ORIGINAL ECU FILE
Using our tuning software, we read and remove the original ECU before sending it off to our headquarters be modified and reprogrammed.
​
SECOND DIAGNOSTIC SCAN
Once the tuned file has been uploaded into the vehicle's computer, we run a second diagnostic scan. This is to ensure that everything has been installed, and updated correctly, and that there are no faults or error codes showing following the installation of the new ECU file.
DIAGNOSTIC SCAN
We will connect our software to the vehicle's computer to check for any faults or error codes that may stop us from being able to perform the tune.
We will then log and save the file, informing you of any current or past errors or faults, and advise the best performance benefits for your vehicle.
UPLOADING YOUR NEW ECU FILE
We upload and install the data of the tuned file. This will update the car's software with the new data improving power, speed, and overall performance of the engine.
TEST DRIVE
The last, and most exciting step in the process, is to test drive the car! We will always perform a test drive to ensure the car handles as expected and that the client is satisfied with the results.
