Tuning boxes

These are mainly used on EFI Diesels, their purpose is to intercept the signal controlling fuel pressure, injector timing (on some models we can also adjust Turbo boost), and vary this signal to improve performance. The difference between our product and the other similar systems is that even though the Tuning box designed for one car is also used on other cars, we prefer to pre-program the unit to with the correct program, to suit the vehicle it has been ordered for. These other systems claim to be directly transferable between totally different vehicles (no additional programming required). And yet also at the same time, claim to be individually tuned to suit your vehicle. For example the same tuning box and cable will fit the Merc. 2.7L 5cyl and also the new 3.0L V6, but the program from the 2.7L would cause the 3.0L to smoke so much that the exhaust particle filter would fail, if the same program was used. To get around this problem these similar systems use an Adjustment Screw, turned by a screwdriver, which you use to either reduce power (reduce smoke), or to increase power. What this does is to move all the internal load point settings up or down by the same amount. To tune the unit to the individual vehicle you need them to do a full Laptop Tune, this is when they actually install, a similar program to what we install, when our systems are first supplied. This places a curve in the load map to individually suit the engines requirements.

ECU Re-programming

This system covers a lot more car models (mainly European), including EFI Petrol & Diesel engines. This system requires the use of a laptop, plugged into the vehicle diagnostic socket, via an interface unit. The program uploads the vehicles original file, copies the vehicles VIN and security details onto a performance modified program (unlike chips which have no identity codes), and then downloads the new program back into the vehicles ECU. The advantage of this is that it can adjust all ECU functions. For EFI Diesel it adjusts fuel pressure, injection timing/duration and boost. For EFI Petrol it adjusts injection timing/duration and ignition timing.

Merc. ML55 EFI: Before 255kw & 510Nm – After 280kw & 539Nm
Merc. ML270 & Jeep Grand Cherokee 2.7 CRD: Before 120kw & 400Nm – After 150kw & 480Nm
Plus many more vehicles, both Petrol & Diesel

Pocket Flash Programming

This one is the same as an ECU re-program but it allows the customer to restore the car back to original program as often as required in about 10minutes, without the use of a laptop. The unit is the size of a small mobile ph. and simply plugs into the Diagnostic socket. The vehicle is programmed with one button (short press to select options "Read std map", "Write std map", "Write performance map", and a long press to implement chosen option). Once programmed, remove the unit from the Diagnostic socket and store somewhere safe.

Also available for VW/Audi PD Diesels, VW/Audi 1.8L EFI/Turbo & Mini EFI

The difference between these systems and other systems on the market is that our main objective is Engine Torque, not Kilowatts. The rule is that any engine is only as efficient as the amount of fuel it can completely burn per combustion stroke and convert into torque.
