What are the terms for ECM remapping and tuning?
Car remapping tuning program Most modern vehicles have an ECU (or Engine Control Unit), which is essentially a small computer that regulates how the engine operates. Vehicle manufacturers de-tune the engine by setting the software on the ECU to default before sending the vehicle out. This is done due to the manufacturers having to sell their cars all over the world; this means that the software settings on the ECU must take into account different climates, laws and restrictions, and the varying quality of fuels. Vehicle remapping is basically the replacement of the manufacturer's default software on a vehicle's ECU.
WHAT ARE THE EFFECTS OF ECU/ECM REMAPPING?
Many people say that ECU remapping doesn’t affect fuel usage; however, this is not technically true. Because of the process involved in ECU remapping, more fuel is going to be consumed to produce the increase in power. If the car is driven in an enthusiastic way after the remap has been carried out, then the fuel economy will not increase (and, in some cases, may decrease). If, however, the driver modifies their driving style to make the most of the increased power and torque throughout the rev range, then fuel economy can be increased. A good example of this could be that the improvement in torque produced by the engine after remapping means the driver no longer has to drop down a gear to maintain speed on an incline or may not have to change gear as frequently in traffic. All of these little things add up to an improvement in fuel economy.
ARE THERE ANY DISADVANTAGES IN DOING ECU/ECM REMAPPING?
Some people have reported engine damage from ECU remapping, but this is exceptionally rare. To offer our customers total peace of mind, Bhadra Tuning offers a warranty on the software itself as well as a full 12-month warranty or 30,000 miles.
