Make Your Workhorse Your Own: Remapping a Working Vehicle

This article was adapted for drivers and tuning professionals in the United States by Viezu USA. Measurements are shown in US units alongside the originals.

Remap Your Working Vehicle

Turn your workhorse into a made-to-measure machine.

Tuning isn't all the same. A trustworthy professional tuner like Viezu will take your own needs and requirements into account when building your bespoke engine remap. See it as a chance to turn an "off the shelf" vehicle into something tailor-made.

Our individual needs, tastes and choices are a big part of what makes each of us different, and we really do differ in all sorts of ways. Naturally, that carries over to the vehicle we pick, the lives we lead and the kind of driving we do.

When a manufacturer brings a new vehicle to market, it's working to a very tight budget while trying to appeal to as many people around the world as it can. So even if it comes close to what you need, it probably isn't ideal for your exact requirements and the different trips you make.

Viezu Technologies Ltd now offers new technology, available for most cars, that lets you choose between different engine remaps, up to eight of them. They can be preloaded onto a device that applies them to your vehicle in under 15 minutes, whenever you want to change how it drives.

Own a double cab pickup or a traditional off-roader? Remap your working vehicle. It might be the family runabout, and it might just as easily be a true workhorse that carries you and your business for miles in every kind of weather, on and off-road, hauling or towing serious weight.

If so, you'll need something very different from the owner of an SUV that mostly stays on the road. These vehicles are hugely capable straight from the factory, but there's still room to make them better.

To get the most from your vehicle and the trips you make, why not look at a home tuning device that lets you switch engine remaps to match exactly what you need at any point in a journey?

Viezu's 'My Genius' personal tuning device, for instance, gives you huge flexibility. It can hold the complete set of Viezu DRIVE settings at once.

Those DRIVE settings, or engine remaps, are:

• CLASSICME: a handy reset that returns the vehicle to its original factory settings whenever you need.
• ECOME: up to 20% fuel saving.
• FUSIONME: the best of both, with more miles from less fuel and, yes, more hp.
• EXCITEME: a truly exhilarating performance DRIVE setting built to release your engine's full potential.
• THRILLME: made specifically for track days, with maximum performance and pure adrenaline.
• PARKME: a DRIVE setting only for low speeds and slow maneuvering, great when someone else has your keys.
• BURBLEME and POPBANG & STEALTH MODE.

Not every option suits every vehicle, but it shows the amazing flexibility an advanced device like this puts at your fingertips.

Tuning can release some truly mind-blowing performance and completely change how your vehicle drives, but the key is tuning for your particular needs. As we've started to explain, there are plenty of reasons why, and a professional tuner like Viezu will gladly work with you to make sure your needs are met.

If your vehicle and driving look a bit like our example, and you ask a lot of it in very different ways, a carefully chosen home tuning device could be the answer. Be careful, though: some tuning boxes are fairly crude, basic devices, whereas personal tuning devices can be highly advanced, easy to use and amazingly flexible.

Remap your working vehicle and transform the way it drives.

US emissions compliance note

In the United States, modifying, removing or disabling emissions-control equipment (including DPF*, EGR*, SCR*/DEF* and catalytic converter systems) on a vehicle used on public roads may violate the federal Clean Air Act and EPA rules, and in California and other states that follow CARB standards, additional restrictions apply. Any off-road, race or competition-only modification described here is not intended for street use. Nothing in this article claims that any product or calibration is EPA- or CARB-certified or street legal. For guidance on options for your vehicle, contact Viezu USA.
