Elecauto Whats chiptuning
As the name says it is a tuning of the engine control unit (ECU). ECU controls the whole engine and the other functions of the car. ECU controls it according to the information received from many sensors spread throughout the car (temperature of the engine, temperature of the inhaled air, lambda probe speed of the driving, rotations of the engine, position of the accelerator, gear applied, etc.). According to this data three-dimensional diagrams or maps are constructed, from which the obtained measurements are used to apply needed power. By changing these parameters we can decrease the efficiency, increase the efficiency, decrease the exhausts, and many other functions.
Of course the most important reason for us to do it is increased efficiency of the engine and thusthe increased power or maximum possible power. Each manufacturer tune the ECU according to the countries rules and regulations where the car is going to be primarily used.  Engine and the engine control program must meet two basic criteria: high engine efficiency to low fuel consumption, and limitations to exhaust and different qualities of gasoline in that particular country. That is the reason for engine to be tuned to meet this high demands. In case that the car is driven in the countries with a good gasoline equality, it is possible to tune suchengine according to the conditions mentioned above.
 
 With the interactive way of programming and by meeting the exhaustion criteria, the requests of the most customers to power increase are met. The efficiency can be increased within certain limits + 10% in atmospheric engines and much more in turbo engines (about 30%). Car is much more flexible, has better acceleration, and reaches greater max speed.
 The fuel consumption depends greatly on the way of driving. In general, with the same way of driving, or with the same uniformed speed the fuel consumption is the same if not less.  If you compare the efficiency curve of the serial and the tuned engine you will find that the same engine with the same rpm (rotations per minute) has the higher efficiency and the torque and that's why youare able to continue in a higher gear and lower rpm  where before you would have to shift down the gear. The general rule is that the engine with lower rpm has a lower gasoline consumption, so the tuned engine has the lowered consumption as well.  Of course when we use the max power of the engine, the consumption is also higher, because the second rule is also valid that: "higher power = = higher consumption of gasoline".
 
 Engine is composed out of many parts which make rotational or straight movement. This moving parts determine the life-span of the engine. Bulb-bearings are designed for certain number of cycles or rotations. Under the normalconditions the rule is that the more rotations cause the more abrasion of theengine. In conclusion, the correct tuning technology cannot and will not decrease the life-span of the engine.
 
 Yes! We archive all the original data. Any time you can return back to your original data.
And in all cases, we respect the manufacter parameters . Of course we do recommend to use a high quality semi-synthetic or syntheticoils.  In certain types of the engines we do recommend the use of gasoline with octane number 98 once they are tuned.
 
 We offer one year guarantee for a ECU chip and tuned program.
 
The same as with the non-tuned engine. All you have to realize is that the engine will have a higher efficiency thus you might have to take some time to get used to when driving a tuned car. Quite another case is with the overfilled engines, where after the tuning efficiency rises by 20kW or more. These types of cars reach a much higher max speed. A brake system is not altered.
