Engine Tuning / Engine Setup
(Often referred to as a simple engine tune even though its far superior)
Often referred to by enthusiast's as a simple engine tune or an engine setup. This engine tuning service is one of the most important thing's any performance or highly modified engine can have performed.
We check and adjust all the important parameters that not only affect the way an engine runs and how much power it will develop but also how long it will ultimately last under pressure. Our engine tuning covers things like:
- Compression pressure test.
- Cylinder Leakage Test (subject to above results).
- Intake system pressure check to 10psi. (More if forced Induction)
- Visual cam timing check.
- Spark plug condition and suitability.
- General ignition system check for condition and suitability.
- Spark timing.
- Fuel Phasing.
- Fuel pressure.
- Fuel pressure vacuum pull down.
- Fuel pressure positive increase. (Forced induction only)
- Fuel delivery at idle.
- Fuel delivery under cruising conditions.
- Boost pressure/s.
- ECU code analysis for errors logged and present.
- EOBD live Data stream analysis where applicable.
- Fuelling under heavy load in real conditions**
- Detonation Check under load in real conditions.

Our in car live fuel monitor in action with a Sunny GTiR. This allows us to monitor the Air Fuel Ratio under real world conditions! |
A simple sample pipe at the back of the car, fitted with our special sensor. We can find those problems a normal garage cannot find stationary. |
There's a lot of care gone into this, don't let it be destroyed because you couldn't be bothered to get it checked over and setup. |
Don't let this happen to your expensive engine. Book in for an engine setup / engine tune now. |
Whilst performing an engine setup or engine tune, Fuelling under load is done using our state of the art wide band fuel monitoring equipment as shown in the pictures above. This is the engine tuning equipment that sets us apart from other companies who just guess or use cheap equipment that only costs a couple of hundred pounds. Our wide band air fuel ratio analysis equipment costs thousands of pounds, in fact, the exhaust sensor alone is over £500!
Average cost of a full engine setup on a turbocharged petrol car is £141 inc vat.
Average cost of a full engine setup on a normally aspirated petrol car is is £100 inc vat.
