ECU Remapping for Diesel and Petrol in Ayrshire



ECU Remapping is one of the main performance tuning services provided by Moorfield Motor Services in Kilmarnock, Ayrshire.

Benefits of an ECU remap
  • Increased throttle response
  • Increased torque
  • Better driveability
  • Improved fuel economy
  • No compromise on reliability

Diesel cars, most notably turbo diesel cars, stand to achieve some of the best increases from an ECU Remap. Typically a remapped diesel turbo ECU can produce a 30-40% increase in BHP and up to 60% increase in torque depending on your specific car.

ECU remapping is better than a diesel tuning box

ECU remapping is much safer than using a diesel tuning box which simply tricks your ECU into supplying more fuel to the engine. This approach can lead to problems including excessive wear on components, heavy black emissions and engine check lights being activated. Compare this to the ECU remap service offered by Moorfield which adjusts specific areas of your car's original ECU map.
