Torque Tuning refers to the process of adjusting and optimizing the performance of a vehicle's engine through modifications to the Engine Control Unit (ECU), aiming to enhance engine response and torque output. This process involves tweaking ignition timing, fuel quantity, and air pressure in the engine to boost power and improve overall performance.
Benefits of Torque Tuning:
- Increased Power and Torque: Enhances engine performance, providing better acceleration and power when needed.
- Improved Fuel Efficiency: In some cases, tuning can result in better fuel economy.
- Faster Engine Response: Ensures quicker engine response when pressing the accelerator.
- Overall Vehicle Performance Enhancement: Boosts torque at higher speeds, making the driving experience more enjoyable.
What Torque Tuning Includes:
- Modifying the engine’s ECU programming.
- Adjusting ignition timing and fuel delivery.
- Modifying boost pressure in turbocharged engines.
- Optimizing air-fuel ratios for better performance.
