ECU Remapping & Dyno Tuning 

on the Fraser Coast

Dyno Tuning for Diesel Vehicles

ECU Remapping is the best and most cost-effective way to improve your vehicle’s performance for when and where you need it most. Core Diesel Custom Diesel Tuning can enhance driveability, throttle response, off-road performance, towing ability, and efficiency, ultimately increasing fuel economy while unlocking your vehicle’s full potential.

 

We only use the best when it comes to modifying any vehicle. We have a purpose-built soundproof Dyno cell with the latest technology, Mainline Chassis Dyno, capable of up to 850KW ( 1130hp) and 1700nm ( 1254 Ftlb ) of torque.

This gives us the ability to ensure that you receive the best possible performance result, safely & reliably. We provide a “Before and After Dyno sheet” to show your power and torque gains achieved.

We offer a variety of packages and options to help you safely achieve the goals you have in mind for your vehicle. Whether it’s towing, touring, fuel economy, or even all-out power, we have got you covered! Contact our team today to discuss creating a custom package tailored to your specific needs.

Benefits of Performance Tuning

Safe, Reliable Tuning

Our ECU remapping services are designed to be safe and reliable, ensuring that your vehicle performs at its best without compromising on safety or reliability. We utilise state-of-the-art equipment and software to deliver a custom tune tailored to your vehicle’s specific needs.

Increased Power

ECU remapping can increase your vehicle’s power output by optimising fuel injection timing, ignition timing, and other parameters. This can result in improved acceleration and top speed, making your vehicle more fun to drive.

Performance

ECU remapping can improve your vehicle’s performance by increasing horsepower and torque, optimising fuel injection timing, and improving throttle response. This can result in improved acceleration, a faster top speed, and enhanced handling.

Increased Torque

ECU remapping can increase your vehicle’s torque output, resulting in improved low-end power and acceleration. This can be particularly beneficial for towing or off-road driving.

Mainline Chassis Dyno

Our mainline chassis dyno allows us to precisely measure and optimise your vehicle’s performance. This ensures that every aspect of your tune is perfectly dialled in for optimal results.

Fuel Economy

ECU remapping can improve your vehicle’s fuel economy by optimising fuel injection timing and air-to-fuel ratio. This can result in reduced fuel consumption, saving you money on gas in the long run.

Towing / Touring Tunes

If you use your vehicle for towing or long-distance touring, we can create a custom ECU remap that is optimised for your specific needs. This can result in improved torque and power delivery, better fuel economy, and a more comfortable driving experience.

Reduced Turbo Lag

Turbo lag occurs when there is a delay between when you press the accelerator and when the turbocharger kicks in. ECU remapping can reduce turbo lag by optimising boost pressure and improving throttle response, resulting in improved acceleration and drivability.

Drivability

A custom ECU remap can improve your vehicle’s drivability by optimising the engine’s performance to match your driving habits and preferences. This can result in smoother power delivery, reduced engine noise and vibration, and a better overall driving experience.

What Sets Core Diesel Apart?

At Core Diesel, we don’t believe in one-size-fits-all solutions – because no one tune suits all. Unlike generic “car park tunes” or plug-and-play chips, our remaps are fully customised to your engine, vehicle setup, and specific use case.

We use industry-leading tuning software and advanced diagnostic tools to deliver reliable, road-tested results. Every tune is backed by real data from our dyno runs and performed by experienced diesel tuning technicians who understand what your vehicle needs.

We’re proud to be the only diesel tuning shop on the Fraser Coast offering dyno tuning and real-data-backed performance tuning tailored specifically to your vehicle. That’s the Core Diesel difference.

Stage 2

Custom ECU Remap & Exhaust/Throttle Controller/Trans Cooler Upgrade/Scan Gauge

Stage 2

This is the most common package we do for people that like to get away with the van on the back & explore the open & off-road adventures.

Stage 3

Custom ECU Remap & Exhaust/Throttle Controller/Trans Cooler Upgrade/Intercooler Upgrade/Trans Valve Body Upgrade/Scan Gauge

Stage 3

This is for the motivated travellers that get away more often than a couple of times a year &/or have that great trip planned – these are more tailored to suit customer/vehicle needs.
