Welcome To Hardcut Remaps

Tuning your vehicles true potential

HERE AT HARDCUT REMAPS WE OFFER A HASSLE FREE CUSTOM REMAP SERVICE

Petrol (Naturally Aspirated):
Remapping a petrol engine ECU will produce 10 – 15% BHP depending on exact specification, the engine will also be more responsive on initial acceleration and produce more torque (up to 20%) through out the entire rev range, giving more response on lighter throttle.

Petrol (Turbo):
Remapping a petrol turbo engine ECU will produce 20 – 30% BHP depending on exact specification, the engine will be significantly more responsive with power coming in immediately relative to throttle input with no lagging at higher revs. This large increase in power & torque gives far more flexibility in all gears reducing the need to change down unnecessarily to overtake safely and quickly.

Diesel (Turbo):
Remapping a diesel turbo engine ECU will produce 30 – 50% BHP and 40 – 75% torque depending on exact specification, diesel engines give the most impressive power and torque gains available. Extra power is gained through out the entire rev range and under all load conditions.
Serial remapping Serial port programming allows us to remap an ECU (Engine Control Unit) without removing the ECU from the car, the remapped software is uploaded direct to the ECU via the vehicles diagnostic socket, this allows for the performance conversion to be totally invisible with no soldering or removal of components.

7 Day Guarantee
At Hardcut Remaps we offer 7 days money back guarantee unlike the another tuners. So if you not happy with our service we will give you full refund we also will return stock file into your ECU so that will remove the remap from your car if you not happy with the power delivery please note that we can’t offer money back guarantee with tuning for economy.

Why Choose Us?

We provide QUALITY REMAPS, our custom remaps are professionally customised We will write the maps for each car choosing the finest settings and to your requirement. We NEVER use generic database or off the shelf files

Very knowledgeable about the remapping business, mu jaguar 2.7 v6 twin turbo was very slow. Jordan mapped it to what i can say would be better than a new car performance. Very highly recommend this guy, don't go anywhere where they charge a fortune, try this guy first, he is cheaper than half the price of the cheapest out there!

Jordan did a remap on our car on Friday and wow what a difference going from 35 - 43.5mpg and also more power beneath your foot really pleased. Good job, well done and hubby happy with the price. Would recommend to anyone thinking about getting it done.

What is remapping chip tuning?

ECU Remapping/Chip tuning as it’s known, enables engineers(not mechanics) to tune all aspects of your vehicles performance and engine management without getting their hands dirty. You can expect to get an instant increase in overall performance by up to 40% (depending on the make and model of your vehicle). Chip Tuners strive to achieve best gains in torque, performance and fuel economy.

Will I notice a difference?

You will definitely notice a difference straight away! We go on a test drive with you, after the remap to ensure you’re ok.

Will I use more fuel?

Because we are actually fine tuning your vehicle, everything should improve. This means that a remap to produce more power and torque should also provide slightly better fuel economy. We cannot guarantee this unless you choose to go for one of our specific ‘fuel economy’ tunes.

Will remapping effect fuel consumption?

We can do a tune specifically for economy where you can expect to achieve a better cruising fuel consumption of between 2 and 9 mpg. With one of our performance tunes, you may see a slight increase in economy. With a power performance tune you can expect a slight decrease in fuel consumption.

How will the remap affect the longevity of my engine?

Our stage 1 Reprogramming is designed to work inside the safety margin imposed by the manufacturer. This is 100% reliable and we guarantee the same engine life.
For those who want even more power, we have some cars also stages 2 and 3 are available, this approach does have a number of potential risks related to longevity.

Do I need to service the car more often?

Not really. Servicing your vehicle should be done as and when the manufacturer recommends. If we have provided you with a performance tune, we would usually recommend that a customer gives their car an additional oil change between services and also checks their air filter etc.

Note: A specific fault does not include clutch slip on any vehicle with over 100,000 miles on the original clutch. Therefore no refund will be given.

Will my vehicle still pass its M.O.T (emissions etc.)

Yes, your vehicle is being ‘fine-tuned’. Although your fuel consumption may go up or down depending on the type of tune you opted for, it will be burning the fuel more efficiently due to being finely tuned.

Why can we do a better job than the manufacturer?

The manufacturer can do what we do, but the manufacturer has many reasons for not providing you with optimum performance and economy when you buy the car;

Marketing: Manufacturers often use the exactly the same engine in a range of cars – even different makes – and need to adjust performance according to the position they want the car to take in the product range. If all models had the same power, the premium models wouldn’t sell so well and justify the extra price.

Mass markets: Fuel quality varies from country to country, and manufacturers tune the engine to a standard that can handle poor quality fuels rather than taking into account that some countries, such as the UK, have top quality fuels. They also tune to allow for poor quality oils and poor maintenance programs.

Future ‘upgrades’: The engine is sometimes held back in new cars so that mid-life face lift models can be given more power a year or two after they are first introduced.

Government Testing: The strict and artificial testing conditions for fuel consumption figures by European Governments means that manufacturers tune an engine to optimize fuel consumption for the test, but in real-world conditions, their tuning robs the car of power, introduces flat spots and actually degrades fuel consumption. A remap ‘repairs’ these weaknesses in the manufacturers tuning to restore proper power, eliminate flat spots and improve fuel consumption in real-world conditions.

Can it be reversed?

The beauty of the remap is that this process is completely reversible without any trace, therefore if within 7 days you want it changed back, we will carry it out free of charge with a full refund. If after 7 days you wish to reverse it then there is no charge for the process but NO REFUND will be given unless there is a specific issue arising from a fault associated with the remap itself.

I intend to make further modifications...?

Again, let us know what your planning so we can advise the best way forward and can even offer great package deals on other performance upgrades.

Is remapping better then chipping or Tuning Boxes?

OBD remapping is the modern technique replacing chipping. It reads and writes on your ECU via the OBD port this is still reprogramming the chip but in a safer better way. Tuning boxs work only to either increase injection duration or rail pressure. More advanced systems also increase boost pressure. Cheap and simple tuning boxs do nothing more than fool your ECU or trick the pressure sensor on the fuel rail into lifting the pressure beyond acceptable levels. We alter thirty plus maps on some vehicles to achieve the proper results ensuring reliable smooth performance which works hand in hand with the Engine Managements Diagnostic Systems. This is the best method for a complete and proper tune.

What if I want to sell my car?

If you wish to sell the car with the map on then no problem, if you wish to have it reversed back to standard after a period of time then again no problem.

Usually there is no charge.

What about my insurance?

This is up to you. We have to advise that you inform your insurance companies that the remap has been carried out but it is extremely difficult to detect. Ultimately it is your responsibility.

How long do you need the car for?

After an appointment is made, most cars take about 1-3 hours of work, this varies a lot from car to car because we adjust each car individually and often do this several times before the result is perfect. We do not release the car if we are not satisfied. You will need to leave the car with us and return when this is done.

What is the finance option available?

What is Payment Assist?
Payment Assist’s offering is one that was designed for the automotive sector, with the intention to ease the burden of the unexpected bill that you may have when your car is taken in for a Service or MOT, or when the garage has carried out a vehicle health check. Whilst you may have budgeted for the original work, when your car needs more parts, this additional cost can make a dent in your finances, sometimes meaning that the critical work that your car needs to make it roadworthy is put off until you can afford this extra cost.

Payment Assist are here to help and spreading the cost of this work means that your car is roadworthy and you can remain driving safely, whilst paying for the work over a 3 month period.

How do the payments work?
You will pay a deposit of 25% of the total bill via your debit card on the day, followed by three more equal monthly payments from the debit card – that’s it.

Where's the catch?
There genuinely isn't one. Quite simply, rather than incurring the cost of borrowing money from other sources, use Payment Assist and pay no interest or fees on the funds you need, providing your payments are made in line with the payment plan.

Do you carry out a check on my personal credit status?
We simply check that your card has adequate funds to pay the 25% deposit and the address registered to your debit card, but no ‘footprint’ is left on your credit status and this on-line check takes literally two seconds.

Do I pay any charges?
None at all, the payment plan is totally interest and fee free and is designed to support you when you need it most
