We can also use the time to perform diagnostics.
VW ECU TUNING UPGRADE
This gives you the most accurate picture of the performance upgrade we have performed. We have a number of dyno operators around the country who will be able to help you with testing your vehicles new power level as it is recorded at the wheels. A Race Package is a sure way to ensure that your vehicle is more powerful than the pack. This can be for something as basic as an octane boost product or something more advanced such as race fuel: Dyno time is also included when optimising for different fuels. We are able to optimise files to suit different grades of fuel and develop advanced timing maps to suit.
VW ECU TUNING SOFTWARE
While the flexibility of the parameters is not as great as OBDII Port Tuning or Open ECU Tuning, its an excellent balance where those options may be too difficult.ĬPi software is not just for pump fuel. This is particularly useful for those who wish to avoid risking their warranties as the traces of Plug and Play Systems are very difficult to find and detect after they have been removed. A plug and play system allows us to tap into the vehicles sensors and to make changes to parameters without notifying the ECU that changes are being made. The nature of Open ECU Tuning means that quotes will need to be based on a job per job basis.ĬPi utilises a number of Plug and Play Systems in order for us to load our software. You can even send your ECU to us and we can perform the work no matter where you are located. Essentially this form of tuning is the same as OBDII Port Tuning with regards to the parameters changed, however, the process is more in depth and will require a skilled technician to perform the work. When this happens we have speciality tools designed to program the circuit board directly. In some situations its not possible to get past the OBDII port of a vehicle. So that there is space to make new performance models next year
So that certain models in a range do not compete with more expensive models To build factors of safety into their motors To meet emissions laws in multiple regions There are a number of reasons why manufacturers turn these parameters down: Through port tuning we can optimise cars even further so that they can take advantage of higher octane fuels all the way up to 110 octane. Usually when a car is optimised for 98 octane its the timing which has been "advanced" to take advantage of the higher quality fuel. By igniting the air and fuel mixture early its possible to achieve increased power. Timing: During the combustion cycle the pistons move up and down inside the combustion chamber. We find this optimal figure and tune the vehicle accordingly. There is an optimal Air to Fuel Ratio for every motor. We will typically tune a vehicle so that we can reduce unnecessary boost and utilise it to create smooth power delivery without surging and through smart tuning we can continue to generate power all the way to the rev limiter without feeling as if the vehicle has "run out of puff".Īir to Fuel Ratio: The ratio of air and fuel effects, fuel economy, efficiency of combustion and the temperature of combustion. By increasing the compression pressure of the turbocharger we can introduce more oxygen into the motor which will in turn create greater combustion forces. Some of the common parameters which can be set are as follows:īoost Levels: In order to create combustion, a motor will use a mixture of air and fuel. This can often number between 30-60 maps. Port Tuning allows us to access the greatest number of programming maps for a vehicle. Our master engineer has been working with the tuning tool manufacturers for the last 8 years and we are an integral part of the R&D network used to unlock new vehicles. We are able to get past the encryption on most vehicles and change the programming directly in the vehicles memory. Each of these methods is fully customised and will allow us to work with your specific modifications. We offer 3 methods to tune your vehicle depending on your requirements and the available methods for the vehicle. CPi offers customised software solutions for VW for a multitude of models and modifications.*
