Car ECU Remapping- the Process and its Benefits
January 24, 2018
Generally when it comes to customizing the car, lots of
people think as decorating its exterior and interior according to your wishes.
But, beyond the cosmetic customization, now it also includes customizing the
mechanism of a car. This might surprise you equally as it did to me when
recently I visited to my known car mechanic to get the rid of decline in the
fuel efficiency of my car and he suggested to remap the engine control unit (ECU)of my car.
In simple, remapping the ECU may be defined as the process
of tuning programming of the car that determines the performance of its engine.
The ECU is an electronic component that basically controls the performance of
an engine and help in enhancing its performance by changing its existing
parameters.
When you take your vehicle for remapping the group offering
you the service will firstly go through the existing settings or the map file
of your car’s engine to understand its existing efficiency and power generation
ability. During the examination of the ECU the experts will go through ignition
timing, fuel efficiency, torque and power generation efficiencies, load and
temperature variables etc.
During the remapping
the whole data set of these parameters will be revised according to your
expectations with maximum possibilities resulting in improved performance andfuel efficiency. An expert remapping group will also offer you the privilege of
enjoying smooth driving of car with improved acceleration. But getting ECU
remapping is an art and before you go to get it done with your car it would be
better for you to collect substantial information about the whole process, so
that you might not be cheated by fake mechanics.
When you think for getting this operation carried on your
vehicle it would be better to visit the mechanic that has vast experience and do
not get impressed by alluring offers offered by the group that falls on your
way. Because most of the times it is seen that such newly established groups do
not have experienced staff and they also lack availability of necessary tools
like rolling road service or garage based dynamometer which play an important
role in conducting the operation.
Moreover an expert group will offer you to go through a chat
session with its experts so that they can understand your problems and
expectations from your car and then going through its make, condition and age
they can decide the type of parameters that will be helpful in offering your
tempting results from the operation.
