ECU Remapping

ECU Remapping

At JB Garages we can completely re map your vechicles ECU management using BHP technology.

We used BHP technology that offers custom remapping for each and every vehicle engine.  BHP vows to never offer a generic “one-size-fits-all” remap file and are a leading service provider within the Engine Tuning and ECU Remapping Industry.

Each map specifically tailored for your vehicle and all remaps are tried and tested using our 2000bhp Rolling-Road.

What is ECU remapping?

ECU Remapping is the process used to tailor the common functions set out within a vehicles ECU. An ECU is programmed by car manufacturers to control the engines functions & therefore all ECU’s need to be programmed with alot of tolerance. Car manufacturers need to take this precaution as they have to cater for the diverse number of markets that their vehicle may end up in. The ECU needs to cover the levels of neglect some vehicle owners show their vehicle engine, in terms of servicing & upkeeping.

The ECU also needs to be prepared for poor fuel quality, which is common in third world and poorer countries. There is also an incentive to down-tune vehicle engines (car performance), in order to make them fit into specific market and even, insurance categories. This means that more often than not a lower model is in fact, just a down-tuned higher model, with exactly the same engine in both. Without these down-tuned models, manufacturers would struggle to have vehicles for each category.

Therefore, this means that these manufacturers have to come up with a compromise for all these factors and achieve this by having different versions of the same engine – the lower vehicle models are ideal for: third world and/or countries with more stringent emission rules and different market categories and higher vehicle models are ideal for: people looking for higher vehicle performance and car tuning, for use in countries where the fuel quality is high.
