OVERVIEW
This type of "live" mapping is considered by many top tuners and race teams to be the ultimate and most effective form, and is employed by all high end and Professional Motorsport applications such as Rally, Formula 1, Indy car, high end custom builds and Special Project divisions, etc.

Companies who regularly employ such live road mapping techniques include McLaren F1 team, G- Power, Mossleman turbo, Bugatti, ABT etc. *NOTE: Our specialist mapping engineer regularly carries out mapping projects for all the above companies/teams.

This form of mapping is ideally suited to :

- custom hi power engine builds
- forced induction conversions
- carbon airbox conversions
- customers who want the very best customised map possible
- wild engine transplants

IMPLEMENTAION & DETAILS
The ONLY way to live map is to solder special sockets inside the DME/ECU board and connect a device called an Emulator between the DME and laptop, then a good Air - Fuel Ratio gauge to the exhaust and/or manifold,and plugging in a good diagnostic software tool to the OBD port (such as INPA), all expensive hi – tech items. It IS NOT possible to do any kind of live map by plugging a laptop alone into the OBD port, period.

In basic terms the emulator replicates what the DME is doing, in real time onto our laptop whilst we are driving (usually on a track, such as our fully equipped facilities at Bruntingthorpe Proving Ground), allowing us to accurately monitor and instantly adjust all parameters (fuel, ignition advance, vanos control, knock sensoring, safety fields, temp. control etc) whilst driving at all loads, all throttle openings, all revs, under real world conditions, until the optimal map for your car and your requirements is achieved. In essence the laptop becomes the car’s instantly adjustable DME/ECU for the duration of the process. Any changes that are made to the car’s programme take effect and can be felt and measured immediately.

Live road mapping tends to gives the best drivability characteristics possible, as after all you mapping the car in real time during "real world" use and on a real road. This allows the most accurate, effective, powerful and truly custom one – off map possible for each individual car, configured to it’s individual environment and climate, suited to the owner’s individual driving style and fully tested to the maximum on a speed limit-free track.

In the UK we normally carry out these mapping sessions at Bruntingthorpe Proving Ground, near Leicester, but we also travel anywhere in the world as required by the customer.

Dynos are rarely used by us for this process... although they have their uses in initial set up procedures and attaining comparative power figures,a dyno is not always as accurate as many believe, and most importantly perhaps, can never fully replicate real world air flow, climatic and momentary load conditions etc, all of which are very crucial factors. There can also sometimes be a tendency for a dyno- only tuned car to display a "stepped" feeling in power incease as revs rise, rather than a steady seamless progression. Force inducted cars in particular should ALWAYS be live mapped, at least in the final stages, as the fuel/air mixture very often shows up as too rich on a dyno (lack of real world air flow); if the mixture is consequently leaned out too far this can possibly cause engine damage when the car is back to driving on the road. Another point to keep in mind is that is getting more and more difficult to get accurate and meaningful dyno data for modern cars due to their sophisticated electronic systems interfering with the dyno operation and readings.

(NOTE: The above statements are in no way meant to denigrate the many good companies out there that use dynos extensively for tuning nor the good work they achieve.We are merely stating our preferred method of live mapping based on our and our engineers' many years of high- end experience).

COSTS & GUARANTEE
Live mapping can cost anywhere from £1400 to £2100 including track hire fees and we normally only suggest this method for force inducted engines or highly modified cars, one- off engines or for the discerning owner with a car in a relatively normal state of tune who simply wants the very best and does not mind paying a bit extra for it.

Call us to discuss if this is the right option for you and the likely costs.

**REMEMBER, FULL MONEY BACK GUARANTEE IF WE DO NOT IMPROVE ON YOUR EXISTING MAP OR FAIL IN ANY WAY. WE ARE HAPPY TO ATTEND TO A DYNO PREMISES OF YOUR CHOICE TO CARRY OUT "BEFORE" AND "AFTER " COMPARISONS.

2018 Update ...all F series cars can now be re mapped using remote OBD cable, as opposed to having to have the car / ECU at the workshop.

Evolve Automotive are world renowned for their excellent ECU / Software products and engineering.
CA are a long established official agents, working closely with Evolve and we offer all of their products.

A good ECU remap will increase your car's power, torque, throttle reaction, driveability and overall efficiency, as well as fuel economy !

This page lists their ECU remapping products which fall into the following categories :

- LEVEL 1 & 2 REMOTE CABLE ECU REMAPPING KITS
These kits allow you to remap your ECU using a PC laptop or most Smartphones / Tablets at a time and place of your own choosing. The cable kits also acts as a very useful fault code scanner and clearing tool. You can use the same cable for further future software upgrades as may be required.

- ALPHA N ECU REMAPING
Similar to the above and also using the remote cable kit, but with addition of Inlet Air Temperature fitting kit, this version of mapping deletes often the troublesome factory MAF (mass air meter) which can offer several advantages and better, cleaner engine and throttle response. This is also the version of software to use with CSL style airbox plenum conversions ( which we also sell, see listings in our Intake section).

- SMG & DCT REMAPS
Enhances speed and efficiency of your gearshifts

- LIVE REMAPPING
The ultimate form of ECU mapping, 100% customised to YOUR car specifically.

We can also offer customisation of the maps and "extras" in many cases to cater for such as :
- Exhaust Decat
- Camshafts, Intakes and other engine modifcations
- Race fuel applications
- Custom supercharger maps for most popular branded supercharger kits
- Launch control
- Flat shift

Applications and options vary, so please Call or E-Mail us us to discuss your requirements and BEST pricing possible.

Features that we can activate / de activate activate include the following, some of which even BMW do not offer:

-Removal Of Seat Belt Chimes
-Removal Of Seat Belt Warnings
-Windows up/down with key
-Windows up/down with comfort access (Comfort Access Required)
-Folding Mirrors with key
-Folding Mirrors with comfort access
-Unlock doors when engine is turned off (Single pull on door handle)
