ECU Tuning and Remap

COURSE INTRODUCTION

Learn how to Tune Automotive ECU’s and gain the knowledge of how engine calibration works.

ECU tuning and remap is the process of making changes to the data inside the ECU to bring about performance changes to the working / behavior of the engine.
ECU Calibration is the Technical word used for it.
Discover the concepts and terminologies of ECU Tuning (Engine Calibration) used in the Automotive Industry and the tuning strategies taken to calibrate the engine.
Learn how to tune and remap the ECU based the requirements such as for Race Applications, Motorsports, Fuel Efficiency or for devloping Performace engines.
On completion of the ECU tuning course you will know how to Tune OEM and Standalone ECU’s with complete understanding of Engine Calibration and Control Parameters.
Develop your Skill Sets in terms of Engine and ECU Calibration to enhance your career as a Mechanical Engineer or Automobile Engineer.
