I React to Horribly Wrong Information about ECU Remapping and Reflashing.

I hate videos like this, because any Tom, dick or Harry now has a platform to air their "'opinions" and most of them are just plain flat out wrong, with the person in the video having zero experience much less expertise on the topic he's talking about. I am on a crusade to rid the internet of these types of blatantly wrong information of the blind leading the blind.

[@julian23561]

I know you guys work mostly on gasoline cars and diesel but I have a question regarding motorcycles. My question is, when a motorcycle engine is mapped lean out of the box and is equipped with a narrowband O2 and you decide change the exhaust system to a full-sys (more open, cat delete), will that change the fueling to go even leaner than before and possibly brick your engine? Or will it go the other way around and run rich? It's great that you guys do this and call out the horri-bad info out there. Thanks.

[@kamkamtoy000]

There's a lot of vloggers and influencers out there talking and making a lot of videos about remapping that messes up your vehicle but they never experienced their cars to be remapped at all! Or had their car remapped by a backyard/junkyard copy/paster tuner! Tsk! Tsk! Tsk!

Speedlab, maybe a dumb question but ill ask it anyway.. after remapping, do we need to check/maintain the reprogrammed ECU after a certain number of km driven or months? new subscriber thanks for the free knowledge sir

[@renzvillaflor3509]

Good pm, sir. Question about remap, does changing tire size affect your remapped ECU? Planning to have a remap first then changing the tire size to a bigger one. From 265/60/18 to 265/70/17. Will it affect the remap drastically or not? Thank you sir.

Does anyone from this group have a remapped vehicle here that have lasted over 200k km?

[@violetaarellano3672]

Correct me if i'm wrong. If remapping is bad, how do you explain a 1.5L turbo engine of an accord generates more hp than a civic's engine. Simple explanation, manufacturers are doing what speedlab is doing. They are just tweeking their engines to put out more hp rather than developing another engine to cope with the added weight of the accord's body. Same with the fortuner and innova. In the innova's case they de-tune it's 2.8L engine.

[@charliebravo08]

And yet that same 2.8 engine can be tuned up to 220whp. Matulin na innova kahit stock what more kung same power like the fortuner gr-s

correct me if I'm wrong sir, a car goes to limp mode after remapping meaning it's not perfectly remapped? did this happen to one of your clients? Thanks!

If it's possible to double performance without any downside, why do manufacturers tune so conservatively? Being more aggressive with the tune would benefit them from a marketing standpoint. I'm genuinely curious and not trying to argue.

[@poochypooch24]

its business, so they still have room for improvement without designing new engine whenever their competitor upgrade theirs
