FAQ

Many of our customers have questions about our services. We've gathered the most frequent questions here for your convenience. Please reach out if you don't find what you're looking for or need further information. We're always here to help!

It's the process where the software on your vehicle's ECU (Electronic Control Unit) – responsible for managing your engine's performance and efficiency – is updated. The factory-set maps are changed for our newly optimised maps.

Remapping is the process of updating the software on your vehicle's Electronic Control Unit (ECU) to optimize its performance. By refining the settings and instructions that control your engine, remapping can lead to several benefits:

  1. Enhanced Performance: By adjusting parameters, your vehicle will experience improved horsepower and torque.

  2. Better Fuel Efficiency: Properly tuned settings can make your engine use fuel more efficiently, saving you money at the pump.

  3. Smoother Drive: With optimized settings, you notice smoother acceleration and better throttle response, making for a more enjoyable driving experience.

Manufacturers set the engine settings on the ECU to handle a wide range of conditions and scenarios. Given that the same model might be sold globally, it's designed to withstand extreme temperatures, varying fuel qualities, vehicles that arent maintained and different driving habits.

By choosing our remapping, you're customizing your vehicle to fit your specific needs and preferences. It's akin to getting a suit tailored just for you rather than buying a standard one off the rack.

In the hands of experts, it's a straightforward process. We don’t swap out engine components or take anything apart. Instead, we link your ECU to our tools, examine its existing software, and then upload a uniquely crafted software just for you onto the ECU.

By choosing our remapping, you're essentially customizing your vehicle to fit your specific needs and preferences. It's akin to getting a suit tailored just for you rather than buying a standard one off the rack.

It depends on the vehicle and what exactly needs doing. But it ranges from 1-2 hours.

Absolutely! Many of our customers own standard vehicles, including compact hatchbacks, mid-sized sedans, family cars, and small vans. With a Vertex Remap, you can expect a boost in the car's drivability and responsiveness, regardless of its type.

We only work within the manufacturer tolerances of the engine and transmission. Primarily, our remapping services aim to enhance the overall driving experience rather than just focusing on raw power.

 
 
Yes. We back up the ‘factory’ software on your ECU and retain it if you require your vehicle restored to its original state.

Absolute pleasure dealing with Vertex Turning! The beauty of them being mobile is I had a last minute job that we met me at and everything was done there instead of at home. Quick, Easy and Professional! 🏆 10/10

Remapped and the car has never been so good. Fuel economy has risen and I have that extra bit of power and pull when I need it on the motorway.

After visiting a few tuners for tuning my mercedes A35. Darren by far blew me away. i had people blaming the cpc module for not noticing any difference in the tuning applied. as soon as Darren applied his tune we took it out on the road, did several pulls. The car made my legs go like jelly! This guy knows his stuff and made my A35 a total animal. Thanks again!

I contacted Darren with an issue I had with my car. it had been mapped by the previous owner. To me it didn't quite feel right. I booked it in for a check up. I received a call 2 hours later, explaining the problem. I picked it up later that afternoon, OMG, its a totally different car, drives so smooth. Thank you so much!!
