What is stage 1 and 2 etc? I was on the understanding the only way to really tune a car once added supporting mods is to do it live on a dyno otherwise you are just downloading a generic map still not one speciffically designed for you car? I remember as a kid superchips popping up, back at the start of car remapping so have always found it interesting pretty sure they were the first, i vaguely remember reading a story that the founder was originally a washing machine repair guy and realised his cars ecu used the same eeproms as washing machine programme boards, his equipment all worked on var ecu still... you then bought a pre flashed eeprom to install into ecu

Honestly a bad idea.. you’re giving yourself more headache down the line when people have issues with cars you sell. Personally I’d also avoid maps that don’t have a rolling road printout as there can be issues on the test runs that one of these maps won’t detect without the live graph/rolling road. Not trying to be downer, just think it’s something you should think about again before jumping in as I can see you regretting it.

A major point in this has been lost in translation i think. The initial and primary idea is to help car dealers make sure cars are going out without a tune on.

I had a plug and play I fitted to my 102bhp 2.5tdi VWT4, 1999 vintage. 3 kids camping gear, bikes and towed a caravan. The tuning box in its day was £150. It absolutely transformed the van for that purpose it was used for. Had to take it off for MOT because smoked a bit. Did 300k before it was sold. For me it’s a good experience but I know people who have not been so lucky. Re maps do not have to be purely for power but can be changed for economy or torque for towing

Had a Megan 230 chipped a few years ago. It was supposed to take it from 230 bhp to 280bhp. I couldn't tell any difference. When I complained I was told the power would come in gradually after a few hundred miles. Never saw any difference! So to me it was a complete waste of money. Over the years it occurred to me that if I'd have told my Insurance my premium would have increased for nothing and if I had not told them and had a serious accident the insurance would have been void. If by some chance I'd have killed someone, I dread to think of the consequences. So would I do it again..... I'll let you go figure. I've now bought a TVR 4.5L CERBERA Red Rose.

Your knowledge of what you actually did is limited to what you were told and what you experienced when you stuck your foot down. I was actually thinking of having my Golf remapped and was excited when this video dropped (was one of the recalled ones due to the efficiency con from VW and has ran "delayed" since they "fixed" it)......but i wouldnt trust you to do it based on this video and visible 30 minutes training.

With the greatest respect, writing/uploading a slave file to the ECU of any car isn't remapping in any way shape or form. Remapping is all the work that goes into creating the master file for each vehicle. Adjusting all the relevant calibrations from the information gleaned via real-time data logs from an individual vehicle is remapping. I'm not demeaning what you are doing, and so long as the correct process is followed you won't be bricking anyone's ECU, the customer gets what they want and you're making money. I have no issues with any of that whatsoever, you are providing a service and adding value to your business but you cannot call what you are doing remapping. Sorry to be pedantic but it is what it is. I wish you all the best.👍

Unfortunately I lost my trust in mapping. Fast forward 4yrs I had the best car I've ever owned (a 530 bmw n57 engine) I had a few glow plug and module issues. I decided to take it to Darkside Developments in grimethorpe for work, I opted for a stage 1 map, glow plugs, module, swirl flaps removed and the inlet side walnut blasting. This absolutely transformed the car in to something special. I owned the car for many years after and it never skipped beat. Lesson learnt, go to a reputable tuner who knows their stuff.

Isn't this tuning rather than remapping. A remap would require you to manipulate parts of the programming based on output data files and in the process you would also need to upgrade some of the parts to avoid them blowing. Better inlets... forged parts.... different cats etc depending on the power change. To be honest I wouldnt buy a vehicle that was remapped so a good idea to check it for remapping and return it to the manufactures spec. From experience this is an insurance nightmare... remap reported (premium rejected or increased) new part installed to complete the remap (not retune) insurance company rejects the modification etc

Tuning and remapping are the same thing just different ways of saying the same thing. There’s different “stages” as they are now called.

They don’t but ok😂collision investigation would have a go but they can’t prove you mapped it, when and where it was done all they can see is file change which could mean repairs too. You admit it and you’re done for.

These mobile map guys are a joke they have no idea what they’re doing just upload whatever they’ve been sent with no clue how it works. Guy started near me and he’s wrecked one of our cars.

Well you used him! Maybe if he was with a company like MET it wouldn't be wrecked
@LC-xu3ti2 ай бұрын
@ it wasn’t MET but they were signed up to a similar system. The problem stands if you’re loading a map to a car and don’t understand what’s really going on it’s fairly risky. Few bad experiences our end

I don't think that guy truly understands what he's talking about. Real experts with deep knowledge of their subject are able to explain things in plain terms that anyone can understand. This bloke is talking gibberish.

All this remapping, is it reducing the reliability of engines. Aircraft engines might be derated to give a longer life.

Remapping is the quickest way to shorten the life of any engine, the manufacturers spend millions to find the best all round mapping for the engines they design and manufacture so why mess with it?

They are mostly mapped for emissions reasons and different power options actually but OK 😅

It doesn't look like anyone has asked you, but for future information and irrespective of whether you choose to remap a vehicle or leave it standard, you as the driver is the only person in charge of the speed being travelled......it's called the accelerator pedal.😉

Oh, definitely not your pal, I'm more selective than that with my friends! You are obviously entitled to your opinion, however, that also makes me entitled as you've chosen to voice that opinion publicly and online to show you that you're an idiot with your comments. You obviously know nothing about the subject of the video, nothing about driving and seemingly very little about manners because when someone spends their time employing people out of their own pocket to make free content for others to watch and all morons like you do is spout utter shit in the comments it proves how ignorant you are. Maybe just stick to riding your push bike and wanking in your mothers spare bedroom🤔
