Price v Value ECU Remapping MPG Tuning

Did you ever look at the price of a product or service and think “that’s expensive” and “I’ve seen it cheaper”?

We all have, but in many circumstances, we don’t take in account the work, experience and investment that it has taken for it to get in front of us, and how all these steps along the way add to the final price we pay.

Price

Price is the amount given as payment by one party to another in exchange for goods or services; but what does it reflect?

That all depends on what you hope to achieve from the product or service in question, and how much benefit it will add to you or your business.

Value

Value is something that is of high importance, to most people.

When a product or service is of high value to you, you want to make sure it is of high quality and that is often reflected by a higher price, than a supplier offering “what appears” to be the same at a much lower cost.

The fact is, that in a marketplace where investment in providing the product or service is high, lower prices also means cutting corners on quality.

Unfortunately, providers that have offered lower prices by cutting corners don’t tell you that, they simply hold themselves out as being “cheapest” and claim you are getting a better deal.

When you are buying a product or service, you need to stop and think about what is important to you.

Do you want the lowest price or the best quality?

Of course, it goes without saying there will always be a cheaper option, but at what cost? It is usually at the cost of quality.

Unfortunately, for those people that do make decisions based on pricing in total isolation from any other criteria, especially quality, in order to save money can lead to a lot of rework and a higher cost as a result.

Comparing Quotes

When comparing a quote, firstly make sure it is like for like

Not all remaps are the same for many reasons, so you need to know what expertise is brought to the table? Is everything explained in full and perhaps most importantly, what have our past customers said about their experience?

The best way to find out the value we offer is to check recommendations from other customers who already have had work done by us.

The most critical part of a remap is the software we write to your ECU.

To the average customer, remapping is a bit of a mystery technically (completely understandable), you cannot see the data changes and even if you could you wouldn't understand them.

Because the software is effectively invisible to you, the only thing you can go by is how the car feels and performs after the work has been done, something a bit of paper with numbers on cannot give you.

Unfortunately, in this industry some people have convinced customers that they need a bit of paper with numbers on to justify the money they have spent, but here are a few questions for you to consider.

  1. Are the numbers on the paper accurate? (Dyno results can be manipulated)
  2. Do you drive a bit of paper?
  3. How do numbers on paper translate to real-world driving?
  4. Would you sooner have a bit of paper showing impressive numbers or have a car that is a pleasure to drive because of the way your power is delivered in the real world.

WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS SAY

Choosing a Good Tuner is as important as choosing a Good Doctor.

You will be presented with a bewildering selection of companies, all claiming to be the best in the industry. Unfortunately the industry has been flooded with “Get Rich Quick” merchants all desperate to take your money from you. In many cases the “Get Rich Quick” operators have invested in “Cloned” counterfeit remapping tools off the internet. They have little “if any” industry knowledge, experience or liability insurance…

Don’t get sucked in by a good story and what appears to be an incredible price. Instead of taking the word of self-acclaimed tuning experts, a search on google will reveal some very interesting, yet disturbing facts about a few “so called” professionals. Unlike some testimonials “Bert for Bognor says we are Brill” our customers are real people. Don’t take our word for it, ask the people that know best “Our Customers”

I went for a remap on my T5 as it had an awful flat spot around 2800 rev's I got great personal service and its like having a new engine in the van smooth power and greater economy.... Highly recommended wish I'd done it months ago it would have paid for it self already thanks a lot hills are no longer a drag.

Adrian McManus

Popped in to see Mike on Friday to have my A4 2.0TDi 170hp remapped. Have to say I was a little pessimistic at first having being told by another firm that remaps on these were a nightmare so was expecting the worst! Thankfully, nothing of the sort, straight in, one error message unknown but Mike worked it out and all done in no time. Straight out for a test run and the drive is very different, certainly mid ranged (where these engines seem to suffer) pulls away nicely and can definitely feel the benefit. Best money I've ever spent on a car in, well, forever! Thanks again Mike

Mark Patterson

Had the ECU my 320D remapped by Mike yesterday. Very impressed with the results. Noticed it straight away after having it done. Service was also great, talked me through all of it to get exactly what I wanted out of it. Highly recommend mpg tuning.

James Aston

Took my Civic Mk VIII 2.2 CDTI to Mike following a recommendation from a friend who's had his last few cars remapped at MPG., professional service and answered any questions I had. Customised remap that gave me a good balance between performance and economy. Mike was happy to let me watch the whole procedure and explained what he was doing. Makes a good brew as well! Would highly recommend, Will definitely bring my future motors here.

Dan Wright
