WHAT IS OBD TUNING?

OBD provides an efficient method to remap an engine, effectively replacing the original manufacturer’s map with a customized one to enhance performance. This allows the engine to operate much closer to it’s maximum capabilities.

At HGV Remapping, our skilled technicians access the ECU’s software by connecting a laptop PC to the vehicle’s OBD  socket. They read the existing software, make the necessary modifications and optimizations, and then reprogram the ECU with the updated software.

In some instances, if required, we might need to remove the ECU and perform the programming on a separate bench, which may take a bit longer. Whether you prefer the service at your premises or home, OBD Tuning can be performed to unleash your engine’s full potential.

IS OBD TUNING SAFE?

Certainly, as long as you choose a reputable tuning company. Be cautious of file writers who make exaggerated claims, such as promising massive power increases, as they may not program the ECU within safe operating parameters.

It’s essential to recognize that every vehicle has a mechanical limit to its power output, and exceeding this limit could lead to component failure. This is why race engines, reprogrammed for maximum power, are more prone to failure.

At our company, we understand the high tolerance levels set by vehicle manufacturers for safety reasons.

Each manufacturer establishes specific specifications, making every engine unique. Our expertise covers all major makes and models, allowing us to achieve the best results while ensuring that we avoid any detrimental modifications. We prioritize delivering optimal performance without compromising the engine’s reliability and safety.

ARE THERE ADVANATGE OF REMMAPPING MY DIESEL ENGINE?

Absolutely, there are numerous clear advantages to remapping your vehicle. One significant benefit is the potential to enhance power by up to 30%, while maintaining smooth torque delivery. This improvement not only boosts performance but also contributes to engine reliability and longevity.

The remapping process solely focuses on engine calibration parameters, leaving other critical systems like diagnostics, traction control, stability, and diesel particle filter (DPF) regeneration unaffected. Retaining torque reduction during gear shifting ensures both comfort and durability are maintained.

Moreover, choosing HGV Remapping guarantees several key assurances:

1. Torque adjustments and limitations in lower gears, promoting the longevity of the transmission system.
2. Optimization of boost pressure and air flow, ensuring an efficient performance.
3. Correct fuel consumption displayed on the infotainment system, providing accurate information to the driver.
4. Accurate calculation and application of exhaust gas temperatures, safeguarding engine health.
5. Correctly applied service intervals, maintaining the vehicle’s health and performance.
6. No increase in emissions of NOx, HC, CO, CO2, or soot compared to the original levels during MOT testing.

Furthermore, if you change your mind, you can revert to the original calibration, offering additional flexibility and peace of mind.

WILL MY INSURANCE BE AFFECTED?

It is essential to notify your insurance company about any modifications made to your vehicle, including engine remapping. As the vehicle owner, it is your responsibility to keep them informed of such changes.

HOW WILL MY MANUFACTURER'S WARRANTY BE AFFECTED BY THE REMAP?

Manufacturers typically specify that if a modification results in any problems with your vehicle, the affected part may not be covered under warranty. However, it’s crucial to note that this doesn’t automatically render the entire warranty void. Components unrelated to the remap, such as the steering, should still remain covered within the warranty.

Always check with your manufacturer first, we will not be held liable.

CAN A REMAP IMPROVE MY VEHICLE?

Certainly, during the remapping process, various elements such as torque limits, fuel pressure, injected fuel quantity, maximum legal visible smoke limit, and boost pressure are adjusted. This comprehensive modification results in a complete transformation of engine characteristics, providing you with increased power and improved fuel efficiency. The key aspect to highlight is that all these modifications are made while staying within the preset engine sensor parameters and ensuring 100% feedback control. This ensures that the remap is not only effective but also safe, maintaining the engine’s optimal performance and reliability.

WHAT HAPPENS TO MY ORIGINAL TUNING FILE?

Rest assured, your vehicle’s original specification is in safe hands with us! We take utmost care of the manufacturer’s original data by storing it securely in our archive. If you ever choose to revert your vehicle to its factory settings, we can easily retrieve and reinstate the original specification without any hassle.
