Performance auto tuning for real-world results

Real performance tuning is about more than power under the bonnet – it’s about achieving safe, reliable and customised improvements matched to your driving style, your upgrades and your vehicle’s technology.
Whether your vehicle runs modern diesel systems, OBD-based petrol engines or even an older carburettor setup, you get tuning solutions that truly fit. Alien Tech diesel tuning lets us flash-tune modern diesels and even turn off your DPF and EGR for off-road 4WD use, keeping engine lights off when you’re pushing the vehicle hard.
For newer diesels still under warranty, Steinbauer stand-alone ECUs offer a proven, stress-free power increase of at least 20%, without overloading the engine or drivetrain.

Performance tuning for petrol as well as diesel vehicles


Petrol vehicles benefit from custom OBD flash tuning ideal for bolt-on upgrades such as exhausts, intakes, camshafts and turbochargers. If your vehicle doesn’t run OBD, bespoke wiring looms and aftermarket tuning computers (including Link) ensure you still get perfect performance control. Even carburetted engines can be tuned for sharper throttle response, cleaner mixtures and power that genuinely feels better on the road.
Every custom tune comes with before and after dyno printouts, so you can see exactly where your gains have been made.

The latest diagnostic tools and dyno equipment ensure every upgrade is precisely engineered for your needs – whether you want crisp acceleration for everyday driving or big gains for serious off-road adventures.
