Generally when it comes to customizing the car, lots of people think as decorating its exterior and interior according to your wishes. But, beyond the cosmetic customization, now it also includes customizing the mechanism of a car. This might surprise you equally as it did to me when recently I visited to my known car mechanic to get the rid of decline in the fuel efficiency of my car and he suggested to remap the engine control unit (ECU)of my car.

In simple, remapping the ECU may be defined as the process of tuning programming of the car that determines the performance of its engine. The ECU is an electronic component that basically controls the performance of an engine and help in enhancing its performance by changing its existing parameters.

When you take your vehicle for remapping the group offering you the service will firstly go through the existing settings or the map file of your car’s engine to understand its existing efficiency and power generation ability. During the examination of the ECU the experts will go through ignition timing, fuel efficiency, torque and power generation efficiencies, load and temperature variables etc.

During the remapping the whole data set of these parameters will be revised according to your expectations with maximum possibilities resulting in improved performance andfuel efficiency. An expert remapping group will also offer you the privilege of enjoying smooth driving of car with improved acceleration. But getting ECU remapping is an art and before you go to get it done with your car it would be better for you to collect substantial information about the whole process, so that you might not be cheated by fake mechanics.

When you think for getting this operation carried on your vehicle it would be better to visit the mechanic that has vast experience and do not get impressed by alluring offers offered by the group that falls on your way. Because most of the times it is seen that such newly established groups do not have experienced staff and they also lack availability of necessary tools like rolling road service or garage based dynamometer which play an important role in conducting the operation.

Moreover an expert group will offer you to go through a chat session with its experts so that they can understand your problems and expectations from your car and then going through its make, condition and age they can decide the type of parameters that will be helpful in offering your tempting results from the operation.
