OBD – The majority of cars can be tuned via the cars On Board Diagnostics port, which means I get to stay warm and dry in your vehicle while doing my things 

Bench – on some vehicles it’s just not possible or considered “safe” to tune via OBD, in which case we plug into the ECU directly using a special cable. Not only is this a faster method of reading/writing ECU’s (20 min OBD write times reduced to 2 mins), it is inherently more stable and considered “safer”. Which is why you may see me using this method anyway, especially if the sun’s out! 

Boot (pictured) – in some cases or for particular tasks, we may need to open the ECU and pin or solder directly onto the PCB. There are a handful of ECU’s where this is the only way of reading/writing, additionally it can be the only way to extract all data from an ECU, for example – for ECU cloning or deleting things such as DPF/EGR.

– Focus ST 250 💥
– stage 1 remap 📈
– supply & fit of RamAir induction kit 👨🏻‍🔧

These are surprisingly well tuned from factory, with 250hp out the box! They are however quite conservatively tuned, with data-logs showing peak boost around 5.5k RPM 😪 meaning there’s plenty of room for improvement 😉

Now we’ve worked some Rhino magic 🦏 peak boost is just above 3k RPM 📈😉 this makes the power-band so much more usable, with bundles of torque available low in the rev-range 💪🏼

The RamAir induction kit supplied by us helps aid airflow and make the most of a remap, and adds a nice bit of noise from under the bonnet 👍🏽

Since moving from a 1.6t to a 2.0t, these really are a different animal being a John Cooper Works edition it already had a respectable 231hp from factory, along with the usual JCW bits

Our dyno-developed software for these is awesome, with a stage 1 calibration taking it up to 280hp when data-logged it was seen to be running exactly as you’d expect great car to work on and now such a fun drive!
