FAQ's:

Can BMW ECU remaps be reversed?

Yes! We use the latest technology on the market today. This allows us to restore to the original factory settings at any time. For example, if you want to sell your car with the standard factory settings bring the car back to us and we will do this free of charge.

Why does my BMW need remapping?

When a manufacturer releases a car onto the market it has to be able to cope with many different demands in many different environments. For example, the car has to cope with differing countries fuel quality, different climates, differing servicing standards and at the same time provide reliability and economy. This means the manufactures have to make a compromise or “detune” your car. In the UK we generally do not have these issues to the extent that the engines have to be detuned so, we have the ability to change them releasing hidden power.

What warranty do E-Maps offer?

E-Maps offer a 12 month warranty on the software only should an issue arise. We can also restore the car back to standard if there is a problem for testing, diagnostics etc.

How long does it take to install?

This depends on the ECU.The whole process, including a copy of the standard settings takes roughly 1 hour.

What parameters are changed in the performance remap?

Typically we will change about 35 different tables in a standard remap. Load, turbo boost (where applicable), ignition timing, and fuel are all adjusted as well as the variable cam timing. Some tuners change only one table while most others no more than 6. By increasing one table it may be indirectly increasing another table and causing it to "max out" or be at the limit of the table. This effectively leaves this table ineffective in providing necessary data for the control systems. We have the ability to rescale any table to add to its range. We have many proprietary methods and programs that we use to make the most powerful and smoothest software available.

Can this damage my car?
The ECU has built in safety mechanisms that prevent damage to engine if the values are set too high. The performance of the car will be less than optimised until the adjustments are lowered or a pre-set program is selected. More is not always better in tuning.
