In our latest dyno test we had this brand new 2024 VW Amarok Aventura V6 in for tuning and testing. After quick installation of our specifically designed Pro + Boost SENT chip tuning box, it was up on the rollers to see what the engine could achieve.
These vehicles currently have a locked ECU with no way to read or write the ECU data. This means that while traditional remapping is impossible, our tuning box can give owners the opportunity to make fantastic gains without requiring a traditional ECU flash. This has the added benefit of being traceless once removed for warranty purposes.
Dyno testing before and after shows healthy gains across the rev range, with a significant increase in power and torque, really transforming how the Amarok feels to drive.
Peak power was increased, as we were able to lift it from 240hp at stock, up to 273hp with the box. If you take a look at the dyno graph below you can see how we change that curve (dotted red and blue lines). We give real consistency here,

In this latest tuning and dyno testing, we take this 2014 F55 MINI Cooper SD and custom tune it, adjusting the software with our remapping tools and fine tuning the results with the rolling road dyno testing. The result… Some pretty impressive performance gains!!
Firstly, we take the MINI at a completely stock level, no level of tune applied. We get it strapped up on to the rollers, and take it for the first set of tests to establish what the factory mapping is producing. No big surprises with this one, a pretty standard stock dyno graph can be seen below. Power results show pretty close to the mark at 166hp coming from a 170hp manufacturer quoted figure, and torque showing at 363Nm coming from a 360Nm figure.
Once we are happy that we have everything logged and the stock figures are dialled in, it’s time to connect to the ECU. We use our Autotuner system to connect directly on to the ECU here, allowing us to tap straight into the software. The process of this custom tune is very much a

A super quick install of our Pro Petrol box on this Renault Clio TCE, and it was back out on the road again enjoying those gains.
POWER 90hp >>> 106hp
TORQUE 135Nm >>> 155NmNot only have we raised those peak figures, but we really delve into where those gains are applied throughout the rev range. We reduce any turbo lag, whilst giving consistency throughout the entire range.

Audi tuning at Bluespark.
More great gains made here, coming from this Audi A1 Sportback. After a super quick installation of our Pro Petrol box, it was already off and enjoying those gains.
POWER 122hp >>> 142hp
TORQUE 200Nm >>> 228NmNot only have we increased those peak figures, but we also really give a consistency throughout the rev range. We bring those gains in as soon as possible, reducing any annoying turbo lag, and then apply that power and torque exactly where its needed across the rest of the rev range, giving a much more enjoyable drive out on the road.

In our latest dyno test we had this awesome 2020 Mercedes-Benz A-Class A200 in for tuning and testing. After quick installation of our 3 Channel Pro Petrol chip tuning box, it was up on the rollers to see what the engine could achieve.
These vehicles currently have a locked ECU with no way to read or write the ECU data. This means that while traditional remapping is impossible, our tuning box can give owners the opportunity to make fantastic gains without requiring a traditional ECU flash. This has the added benefit of being traceless once removed for warranty purposes.
As mentioned in the video below, the model in which we dyno tested here is the 163ps variant. However the A160 and the A180 which are the 109ps and 136ps variants, both use that same engine, which is just ‘tuned down’ for their respective models. This means that we can tap into this retained power, unlocking that potential, and providing you with similar results to what we achieve here, no matter which variant you own.

In our latest dyno test, we had this 2021 Hyundai i20N in for tuning and testing. After quick installation of our Pro Petrol chip tuning box, it was up on the rollers to see what the engine could achieve. Check out how we install the box on this engine, here:
Dyno testing before and after shows healthy gains across the rev range, with a decent increase in power and torque, really transforming how the i20 feels to drive.
Peak power was increased, as we were able to lift it from 198hp at stock, up to 235hp with the box. If you take a look at the dyno graph below you can see how we change that curve (dotted red and blue lines) changing where the power is applied. We bring that extra power in as soon as possible, as you can see where we start to lift that curve from right down at the 2500rpm mark. We also give real consistency through the entire rev range, as taking a look around the 4500rpm-6500rpm section, you can really see that noticeable difference throughout that whole section of the

Brand-new 2024 BMW gains, from a locked ECU??
Another example here of a locked ECU with no way to read or write the ECU data. This means that while traditional remapping is impossible, our tuning box can give owners the opportunity to make fantastic gains without requiring a traditional ECU flash. This has the added benefit of being traceless once removed for warranty purposes.
POWER 340hp >>> 410hp
TORQUE 700Nm >>> 803NmAwesome gains made here from our specifically designed Pro + Boost SENT box. We apply the gains exactly where its needed, transforming how the power and torque are applied throughout the rev range.
We recently dyno tested this engine, on the similar M340d. Check out the dyno test here:

Here we install our specifically designed Pro + Boost SENT chip tuning box to this 2023 Ford Ranger Wildtrak V6.
These vehicles currently have a locked ECU with no way to read or write the ECU data. This means that while traditional remapping is impossible, our tuning box can give owners the opportunity to make fantastic gains without requiring a traditional ECU flash. This has the added benefit of being traceless once removed for warranty purposes.
For this engine we connect at the Rail Sensor shown at time mark 0:08 and the Boost Sensor shown at time mark 0:56.
Check out the installation here, across on our YouTube channel:
We conducted a full dyno test of this Ranger, providing before (stock) and after (tuned) results. Check out that dyno test here:
