Whether you drive a daily commuter or a performance-focused machine, our expert ECU tuning and remapping services can help you achieve optimal performance, improved fuel efficiency, and a customised driving experience.
What is Dyno Tuning?
Dyno tuning involves using a dynamometer—a sophisticated piece of equipment that measures your vehicle’s power output—to optimise your engine’s performance. This process allows our certified technicians to make precise adjustments to your vehicle’s Engine Control Unit (ECU) settings, unlocking hidden horsepower and improving overall driveability. When your car is on the dyno, we can measure real-time performance metrics and make calibration adjustments for optimal results.

Frequently Asked Questions About ECU Tuning
Can I do ECU tuning myself?
While technically possible, DIY ECU tuning is not recommended. It requires specialised knowledge, skills, and equipment to ensure the process is done safely and effectively. Attempting to tune your car’s ECU without proper expertise can lead to severe damage to your engine or other vehicle components.
How much does an ECU tune cost?
The cost varies depending on your vehicle’s make and model, the specific tuning services required, and the complexity of the work. We recommend contacting us for a quote and a personalised consultation.

Dyno tuning is generally considered the most effective way to optimise your vehicle’s performance parameters, resulting in noticeable improvements in horsepower, torque, and fuel efficiency. With our certified technicians using state-of-the-art equipment, you’ll experience a significant enhancement in your car’s performance.
How much can tuning changes increase your car’s power?
Horsepower and torque gains typically range from 5% to 30%, depending on your vehicle’s make, model, and tune quality. For a car with 200 horsepower, this could mean an additional 10 to 60 horsepower.
