Professional tuning of your diesel will deliver significant torque gains and fuel savings, thanks to using a dyno to change your vehicle’s air, fuel and temperature parameters.
Modern Toyota engines make excellent candidates for performance upgrades like dyno tuning. It is due to allowing mechanics access to more adjustment points within the engine control unit or ECU.
Increased Torque
4WD diesel tuning Adelaide is one of the best ways to increase power and torque in your car by altering its ECU (Electronic Control Unit). ECU remapping can unlock your turbo diesel’s full potential for improved driving experience, better fuel economy and reduced turbo lag.
Manufacturers program vehicles with conservative maps to perform optimally across various road conditions. As such, a Toyota Hilux or Land Cruiser designed for driving on autobahns of Germany won’t fare so well when driven on country roads of England or Malaysia with hot and humid climate conditions; nor when pulled heavy loads towing boats, horse floats or caravans.
Willys Workshop of Gold Coast offers professional diesel tuning solutions. Their experts can remap your engine and improve how it interacts with the rest of the vehicle, leading to smoother driving, increased torque, and horsepower, as well as better towing performance when towing caravans or boats.
Better Fuel Economy
Many vehicle owners are searching for ways to increase fuel economy, given today’s rising fuel costs and their desire to keep costs as low as possible. 4WD diesel tuning Adelaide can assist here by helping engines use less fuel while still giving you all the required power.
Diesel remapping can improve fuel economy by reconfiguring how your engine operates, using ECU programming to adjust to meet your specific needs rather than how the manufacturer designed it. By changing parameters like diesel fuelling, boost curve and torque request settings, your engine can work more efficiently and save money at the pump.
Many companies offer plug-and-play “Chips” designed to improve fuel economy and power. These chips work by altering how your diesel engine uses fuel, shifting torque production towards a lower RPM range and shifting it down about RPM range – boasting up to 7 MPG improvement in fuel efficiency!
Willys does not recommend these modules due to their potential to cause irreparable engine damage, as they change ECU settings beyond what your engine can tolerate and may put it into limp mode or cause it to shut down completely.
Reduced Turbo Lag
Modern diesel engines utilise an intricate network of sensors and components that monitor everything from injector duration and pressure, common rail pressure, ignition timing and engine idling speed to injector duration and common rail pressure management. At the centre of this system is an electronic control unit (ECU) – a metal box containing software programming instructing your engine on its behaviour.
Tuning allows this data to be optimised, increasing power and torque to enhance performance, towing capacities and fuel economy. 4WD diesel tuning Adelaide also has the power of optimising combustion by decreasing consumption while improving economy by optimising combustion rates and decreasing how much fuel is burned during combustion.
Plug-and-Play (‘Chip’) devices are becoming an increasingly popular solution to increase power. Installable by any number of diesel tuners or auto stores, these ‘Chips connect directly with your engine ECU, allowing it to leverage existing data without altering any components in its operation. They increase your vehicle’s power potential significantly without altering internal engine components directly.
Before trusting your engine to a tuner or “Chip”, be aware of the risk involved with this tuning. Without experienced technician guidance, wrong settings could damage your engine or transmission. For the safest and most reliable way of tuning 4WD vehicles, use a dyno facility where technicians can monitor air/fuel ratios and boost levels in a controlled environment.
Improved Performance
An engine performance tune can give your Toyota diesel more power and torque, better fuel economy and reduced turbo lag – all while improving economy and economy. Our dyno technicians specialise in tuning Toyota engines with more points of adjustment for fuel and timing per cylinder, making them the ideal candidate for upgrading. They will modify its Engine Control Unit (ECU), unlocking its potential.
