FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Manufacturers generally sell one vehicle that covers various markets, with different tax and emissions regulations; different climates with extremes of heat, cold, humidity; different fuel quantities; different operating altitudes, etc. A manufacturer has to take all of these factors into consideration and make substantial compromises in the vehicles operation. We optimise the engine tuning and outputs.

Every Mapro Tuning Remap is guaranteed to ensure your complete peace of mind and continued service.

We offer a lifetime warranty against software faults. If the installation becomes faulty, we will re-install it free of charge. A professionally remap engine will not cause technical faults with a well serviced and maintained the engine.

If you want to tune your vehicle and still keep the vehicles safety and durability functions for the engine/transmission/ESP intact, the only way to tune a vehicle is to make changes in the existing control system of the engine. That is exactly what we offer with a Mapro Tuning remap. Our tuning process has total control over all parameters at any moment, and we don’t disturb the safety functions of the car by deceiving the system.

Apart from an obvious power, torque and fuel economy benefits you get the following advantages with a Mapro remap:

– The Mapro Tuning Remap is installed within the hour, normally without lifting the bonnet

– Nothing needs to be connected to the vehicle after tuning to get the benefits

– No loose boxes and wiring flexes in the engine compartment

– Torque comes soft and smooth

– Torque is adjusted/limited on lower gears (to avoid damage on the transmission)

– Boost pressure and air flow is optimised

– The original settings can be reinstalled if required

– On board computer shows correct fuel consumption

– Anti-skid program (ESP) function is fully retained

– Torque reduction when shifting gear (for comfort and durability) is retained

– Regeneration (emptying) of diesel particle filter (DPF) is retained optimal

– Correct calculation of exhaust temperature

– Correct calculation of service interval

– The diagnostic system is retained

– No enlarged NOx, HC, CO, CO2, Soot emissions compared with original when going for MOT and servicing

Our Mapro Tuning re-mapping process enhances and optimises the power of the engine within safe limits, not beyond them. Extra power will also result in fewer gear changes, which might actually reduce overall wear. Manufacturers have to build in a tolerance for the parts in the engine, to manage the effect of wear and tear, production variations, and to ensure their warranty claims during their warranty period normally 3 years, are kept to a minimum.

Most race and rally engines are pushed for every last bhp, and thus they more common to fail, whilst normal car/van/lorry engines are limited back, well away from probability of multiple failures. Each individual engine is different as in how much it can be pushed in a remap, but a good remap from a quality tuner like Mapro Tuning will never get close the limits of component failure.

You will see that the top companies within the market place have all develop vehicle improvements to similar outputs. Beware of tuners who claim significantly more, it’s either lies hoping that the average customer wouldn’t be able to tell the difference, or the engine is being pushed too hard and will quickly become unreliable.

Some manufactures diagnostic equipment may detect a remap. Additionally many forward thinking manufacturers turn a blind eye to a quality remapping service , knowing that a properly enhanced vehicle can only ever benefit them. The official line from most manufacturers is that if a modification causes a problem with the vehicle, then the part of the vehicle affected will not be covered under warranty, this does not mean a unilateral cancelling of the whole warranty.

We are very confident that your Mapro Tuning Remap will both improve your driving experience and save you substantially on fuel*

We advise that it is your responsibility to inform your insurance Company of any modification to your vehicle. We are finding that more and more insurance companies are not penalising their customers for saving fuel and recognise our economy upgrades, in particular with Mapro map.

* Please do not expect MPG increases in winter months, we will be honest and upfront with you at the time of booking, if we cannot improve your economy due to it already being above average we will tell you, if you still proceed with this and do not get increases after we have advised you we will revert the car back to standard but there will be no refund given as of 21/05/2021.
