Chiptuning and Optimization:
The optimization will be
exclusively performed in the ECU (Engine
Control Unit) that means the engine itself
will not be modified in any way, only the
chip which contains the data used for the
engine management.
The
ECU History and Benefits:
This device basically
consists of one or more micro computers
which are responsible for the monitoring,
controlling and complete management of the
vehicle. All data is optimized
during the Chiptuning process, which
translates to the maps for injection,
ignition and charge pressure. These
are measured and constantly monitored
through the complete RPM band. This
process is recalculated with a very
intricate computer programming process
which is optimized in relation to load and
RPM. As a result, maximum possible
power and torque is gained. Power
and torque is gained. Power and
torque improvements of 20-30% with Turbo
applications and 8-12% with normally
aspirated engines are realized. This
directly results in improved acceleration,
responsiveness and top speed. In
addition to all of the improvements made,
the reliability and integrity of your
vehicle is still maintained, while
attaining maximum possible fuel economy.

and after the Upsolute Chiptuning.

These are the
most important areas that are optimized at
the Chiptuning process:
Ignition:
To
use the fuel in a effective way, it is
very important to maintain the best
possible timing in relation to the RPM,
load, temperature and other control
signals. In regards to Diesel
engines- the optimal injection pressure is
controlled.
Fuel Injection:
In
relation with the available amount of air,
RPM, load and other variables, the
electronic processor calculates the needed
fuel to be injected at the precise time
and amount. This ensures the
reduction of fuel consumption, a reduction
of emission, and a gain in the engine's
horsepower.
Charge Pressure Control:
Turbocharged engines have the most
noticeable improvements over normally
aspirated (non-turbo or supercharged)
vehicles. This is contributed to the
increased volumetric efficiency created by
increasing the charge pressure on the
intake side of the engine, thus resulting
in such increases up to 30%.
