Again and again we are asked how to get a good one tuning workshop can recognize. Of course you can do that in general not respond. But we can give a few pointers. The following text represents the optimal case If all points are there, then the tuner should be perfect for your vehicle. If there are a few points, then that is already a good sign. If none of the points are available, then better "hands off". In addition to an online shop or at least a website, many tuners also put their own visions of professional tuning in a special one tuning workshop around. Here they make the vehicle/motors faster and, ideally, safer. With a modern test stand and a lot of knowledge on the subject Tuning & Motorsports get your tuned car on the road. Good tuners generally only use the best components from well-known manufacturers. In addition, they are always happy to develop their products further based on their own experience. It is often the case that the respective tuning team even consists of employees with special experience in the field Motorsport exists who share your love for increasing performance. Often it is even not entirely unimportant whether the tuner has a YouTube channel, for example. Because in this case you get an impression of the ongoing projects and the knowledge of the company.

Passion / Technology in the tuning workshop

A tuner is usually enthusiastic about fast vehicles and about making them even faster. If you take a look at the projects, you will find that they can get even more out of the car in the tuning workshop. Modern tuners do almost everything that demanding tuning fans like and the possibilities are almost unlimited. From voting by means Chiptuning to the meticulously constructed racing engine a lot is possible depending on the workshop. A good tuner attaches importance to the best results through new technologies and will be happy to advise you in order to enable you to have the greatest possible driving pleasure. A smile when looking under the hood is then included.

the chip tuning

In the Chiptuning the software of the control unit is changed in such a way that you can expect more torque, more power and usually less consumption from the engine. The experts do this by extracting everything that is possible from the factory parameters. To do this, all the necessary data such as power loss, torque, engine power and other aspects are first measured in the tuning workshop and then overwritten for a balanced increase in performance. It is particularly important that a tuner generally controls the safety functions of the engine stay activatedto protect the engine from possible damage.

Transmission and engine construction, or racing engines?

If you want to go all out right away, you can get your own in a good tuning workshop racing engine. The tuner installs coordinated components that, when combined, are a lot of fun to drive. When building the engine, a good tuner attaches great importance to increasing the respective racing engine for the highest speeds and all this in consultation with you. If the tuner only uses purebred motorsport parts, then the engines are particularly stable. At the same time, you can get the right one in a good tuning workshop Transmission construction/ conversion to be able to package and implement the strong performance.

BEDI cleaning

At a BEDI cleaning (Gasoline direct injection), the tuner frees the respective engine from coking, which occurs again and again in engines with direct injection. The main consequence of this coking is that the performance is very low and the engine runs unevenly. To make the engine fit again, the tuner removes deposits from the combustion chambers, intake ducts, valves, EGR valves, idling actuators and throttle valve parts.

special things: angle connecting rods

The connecting rods should always be on their parallelism be checked to prevent piston seizure. This happens quickly with small deviations and then the cylinder and piston bores wear out on one side and that's how it is Piston seizure there. In a good tuning workshop, the employee has the opportunity to measure and angle the connecting rods so that you can continue to achieve full performance in the future. The connecting rods should definitely be checked for correct function during tuning.

Injector service

The good tuner has been upgraded to such an extent that it can also take the test and the Cleaning of high-pressure injectors and injection nozzles can do. The rule is that even completely new injectors are checked have, since scattering can occur. An optimal cleaning in one nozzle test stand is usually sufficient to restore smooth running of the engine. After that, the nozzles look like new and any misfires are gone. At the same time, consumption levels off again.

Tuning and performance measurement on the test bench

On a modern test very accurate measurements can be made, using those from the Formula 1 are to be compared. Thanks to the many options, measuring techniques and sensors, the driver quickly gets a picture of the current condition of the vehicle and can use this as a basis to optimally tackle the increase in performance.

Of course, that wasn't the end of it!
