Austec bespoke mapping?
Discussion
Has anyone here had this done? I like the sound of it.
A friend of mine is really happy with something similar on his (brand new) Audi RS4. The basic idea is that the standard ecu map on all new cars is a big compromise that has to take into account boring stuff like emissions legislation, crappy grade fuel etc. A bespoke map as set up on a rolling road can optimise the car and can produce significant results. My friend is claiming 30 bhp extra. That sounds a bit optimistic but interesting none the less.
This type of tuning is commonplace on bikes that need to be set up properly on a rolling road, after you stick on a race exhaust system. I did it on my Kawasaki ZX12r and the results were dramatic. Another 20bhp at the back wheel! It's a massive improvement in smoothness and throttle response too.
Your thoughts please gentlemen (and ladies)?
