ECU Remapping Guide TO Motoring
Mapping an ECU is an advanced procedure that is taken out on newish cars, that will help to aid the running of the motors engine. ECU-Remapping on the other hand, is where the map of the the car’s motor is modified to aid the car’s engine such as the brake horse power (BHP), as well as gain an improved fuel consumption from the car.
The ECU of a motor is the brain in younger motors, and is the internal brain of the carthat controls the other electronic products of the vehicle. newish motors rely a lot on electrical functions and computer processors, and they are often used to assess the running of the car and to maintain it. As the parts are understood, they can all be modified and upgraded to offer a more efficient engine.
You may be trying to figure out why the Engine Control Unit on a car is not at first optimised prior to being sold, and the only reason for this is that the engine is optimised in such a way for the ‘normal’ driver and for mainly ‘normal’ climate conditions.
The main flaw with this is that, not everyone experiences ‘normal driving’ climates, and is generally not a ‘normal’ driver, so an remap of an engine is often a way to make the car unique to its driver.
The technical skills needed in an ECU remap, is usually a trained mechanic. There are customised computers available which apply directly into a car, and give the appropriately qualified person a detailed report on the engine, and also show where there could be changes made in the tuning of the engines engine.
These alterations are carried out by the professional, and then reinserted back into the vehicles ECU.
The improvements experienced by the person driving the car are often subtle but still can be noticed. For example, they may find more speed when the engine goes quickly, or a better all round slicker driving experience. The other main benefit is of course the fuel efficiency.
For further information on visiting ECU Remapping, and on remapping surrey there is much information available on the internet, and many review sites that will help you.
