We are still able to operate in this current climate, but with social distancing measures in place, and mainly for Key workers.
We are mainly working on cars where we can tune or update vehicles through the OBD port.
Unless customers send us their ECU in the post.
Tuning Emporium are specialists in EGR deleting and have been for sometime. And this is still a busy time for us, as many key workers have experienced their cars going into limp mode. Here at Tuning Emporium, we can advise which is the best solution.
Option 1:
Replace the EGR system with new OE ones. Only problem here is the cost.
Option 2:
Blank the EGR’s and have car reprogrammed accordingly
Option 3:
Blank EGR’s via the ECU, this does require the car to have no lights on the dash though, and the EGR’s to be able move still, and not in a stuck position.

Yet again, we have another failing EGR system, this time on a 2009 Land Rover Freelander 2, 2.2 160bhp engine.
Although this engine in question done 83,000 miles, it was quite clogged up, and pulling out at junctions did take a delay or two.
Despite what everyone says, when an EGR system is severlly blocked, you can not just write a new map, with the egr system disabled, as it will remain stuck open and not shut. Hence you need to manually block these as well.
What is an EGR?
EGR” stands for exhaust gas recirculation. When engine combustion temperatures near 2500°F, the formation of smog-producing nitrogen oxides (NOx) increases. Exhaust, however, is mostly composed of carbon dioxide (CO2), which does not burn. The function of the EGR valve is to recirculate small amounts of exhaust back into the combustion chambers of the engine in order to decrease the combustion temperature, thereby reducing the formation of smog-producing nitrogen oxides.
Its this build up of carbon that promotes failure of these items. Add to that the cost to customers to is not cheap either.
Once the EGR is blanked off mechaincally we can then set about tuning it properly, with egr function deleted, written into the new map.
standard power output is 157bhp and 295lb ft.
Stage 1 power will be
200bhp and 369lb ft.
MPG is a massive improvement of 15% so far on like for like driving.
Again proving that the cost of the remap will be paid for within the year, subject annual mileage.

Had the pleasure of helping out a local garage with a Ford Ranger 3.2 5 cyinder, customer will be doing a lot of towing so wanted some extra bhp and lb ft to help.
Standard tune these engines produce 197bhp and 347 lb ft.
After a stage 1 tune these produce
243bhp and 400 lbft.
This is still a safe limit on the drivetrain, and imrpoves mid range power quite a bit now!

Had a great example of a Mark 1 Range Rover Sport 4.2 supercharged in for a remap recently.
Although we could have fitted it, the engine already had a 10%supercharger pulley upgrade on it.

Despite been such a heavy vehicle we knew that the engine could have more power extraced from it.

Standard power is 395bhp.
In tuned form it should now be 470bhp 🙂

What is remapping?
Engine remapping has become increasingly popular in recent years, as drivers become more familiar with the little black boxes that control their cars vital functions, and more aware of the opportunities to ‘tweak’ the settings.
The process used to be called chipping, as it literally meant swapping a microchip in your car’s Electronic Control Unit (ECU) with a modified version. Nowadays the black art has advanced to the point where home-brewed engine remapping software is available to download from various internet groups for brave and/or tech-savvy home-tuners who like to experiment. We’d never recommend that route, as unsurprisingly there’s a significant risk of causing expensive engine damage if a remap is not done properly.
So for most people an engine remap involves a trip to a local specialist Like Tuning Emporium, where we can overwrite your factory engine settings via a laptop, directly into your car’s OBD port, or we can tune your ecu on the bench.
There are two primary reasons for wanting a remap, and they’re called power and torque. When your car left the factory there’s a very good chance its performance was deliberately muted in order to meet product planning objectives or economy and efficiency targets.
These days the power and performance of most cars is limited, not by any particular mechanical factor, but by the software running in the engine control unit (ECU).
Computer algorithms running behind the scenes while you’re driving a modern car affect all sorts of parameters, such as ignition timing, air/fuel ratio and turbocharging boost pressure.
So if you want greater performance and pulling power from your car, or alternatively if you’re seeking mpg improvements, the first place to look is the little black box under the bonnet. Here at Tuning Emporium, we receive plenty of emails asking advice about ECU software changes, and we’ve compiled this guide to explore the pros, cons and costs.
Chipping turbodiesel engines can increase economy by seven to 10 per cent, because it adds torque lower down the rev range. This means the engine doesn’t have to work as hard as before. It’s these turbo diesel engines often known as TDI, HDi, CDTi, CDI,depending on the manufacturer that are cornerstone of the car chipping industry because an engine chip or software upgrade can cheaply add so much to the performance.
Our Prices start at £199 for OBD tuning, and ECU bench tuning costs start at £275.
Are ther any downsides to getting your ECU “chipped”?
Some people are concerned that engine remapping could cause problems with their car. But it shouldn’t affect reliability if you use a reputable company such as Tuning Emporium.

A recent customer had his Land Rover Freelander in for a remap and software update with us at Tuning Emorium.
We did this remotely at customers house. Before we commenced the remap process we had to do a software update on the vehicle. This we can do for all models of the Jaguar Land Rover range, contact us for more details.
Land Rover Freelander ECU remap with software update
Again this is not a job we can rush, we always take our time to ensure our work is correct.
In standard tune the engine should produce 156bhp and 295 lb ft.
Once tuned with our bespoke remap and egr delete function it should produce 199bhp and 369lb ft.
And as its a manual gearbox, it certianly delivered the extra power a lot smoother.
One main benefit of remapping will be a reduction in fuel consumption meaning that fuel will last you longer so saving YOU money. With the gained extra torque especially at the lower rev range you will see a fuel saving, as it will require less throttle input.
ECU remapping not only improves the engines power and torque, it will also heighten throttle response and expand the power-band. This means things like power delivery will be a lot more linear, which in turn will make the vehicle feel a lot more responsive too. The vehicles power output is frequently restricted by the manufacturer for no reason. Being a driving enthusiast, there is no need for such restrictions to be placed upon your ECU and reducing its performance therefore getting your ECU remapped you could benefit from the hidden power and torque that is hiding within your engine management system.
Benfits for a turbocharged diesel engine:
Increased torque
Increased horsepower
Better throttle response
Smoother power delivery
Improved fuel economy
Safer overtaking

Tuning Emporium goes through stages of just a partiulcar brand of vehicles, last week seemed to be nothing other than BMW’s, 1 series, X5, 3 series and this 5 series.
In standard tune 187bhp and 295 lbft its no slouch, but the higher up the rev range you go, the more this saloon struggled a bit with weight on family holidays.
Upon initail inspection all seemed ok, however upon reading the ecu, we found something wrong in the current set up. This had been to another tuner not that long ago.
BMW 520d ECU remapping at Tuning Emporium
Boost values, injection and air flow all incorrect. We cleared the map, and started again. This is why we are not the cheapest for remaps, but at the same time we’re not the most expensive either. For BMW OBD tuning we charge £299.

Maybe this was why the engine ran out of umph up long hills?? Had we not beeen able to recover this ECU, we would have had to get the ECU flashed with our BMW software tool.
So why a remap?

When the customer is back off their travels we will get the car on the dyno to prove our figures.
We are looking for 238bhp and 340lb ft, given the engine has only done 24k, and it was comepletely different after test drive, we’ve no doubt in our figures.
