1stDiagnostics

Up here your engine breathes about 27% less air than at sea level. The factory map doesn’t know that. We measure it.

First, we listen to the engine

Before we touch a single map, we make sure the engine is healthy. A car with leaks or worn plugs doesn’t gain power; it gains problems. That’s why every job starts with an hour of diagnostics and a baseline run on the dyno.

2ndMapping

We map it cell by cell

Ignition, fueling and boost are tuned live, with the car running on the dyno and a wideband sensor in the exhaust. Write, measure, correct. Repeat.

Ignition
Timing optimized cell by cell, with knock detection on every run.
Fueling
Target mixture by load, corrected for Quito’s thin air.
Turbo
Target boost and wastegate control, always inside the turbo’s limits.
Safeguards
Temperature, rpm and torque limits that protect the gearbox and clutch.

We keep your original file. If you ever want to go back to stock, we flash it back in twenty minutes.

3rdPower

The curve doesn’t lie

Every car leaves with its own dyno sheet: the stock curve, measured here, and the curve after the map. The orange gap is what you’ll feel on the climb.

Not sure which?

Start with a baseline run

We measure your car as it is for USD 90 and tell you which stage makes sense. If you go ahead with a map, it comes off the bill.

4thBrakes & suspension

More power needs more brakes

Adding 40 horsepower, then coming down off Pichincha on factory pads, is not a plan. We bring the rest of the car up to its new engine: it stops shorter, grips harder and reaches the last corner in one piece.

5thTrack

From dyno to apex

Once a month we take our customers to the track. We check the cars the day before, time every lap, and an instructor rides with you for the first sessions. That’s where you learn to use the power, not on the street.

Bring your car in. We put it on the rollers, and you leave with your curve on paper and an honest diagnosis. If you decide to map it later, the baseline run comes off the job.
