Superchips NZ ‘fine-tunes’ your vehicle’s ECU to optimise the engine’s ability to produce more power, torque, and improved economy.  

Superchips NZ specialises in tuning petrol and diesels. With 25 years’ experience in NZ, Australia and Europe they specialise in optimising your vehicles performance.

Since the mid-1980s, engines have been controlled by the engine control unit (ECU). This controls the ignition timing, fuelling, boost pressure and other engine functions.

After extensive development and testing, they fine tune the settings for your make and model. Each remap is as individual as the software inside your ECU, safely eliminating those ‘performance compromises’. The new remap is based on the original manufacturer’s programme.

In many cases, this remapped program is installed through the car’s diagnostic port, so no replacement chip and we don’t touch the ECU. However, some models can only be done directly to the ECU. They also offer a self-programming option using a POWERGATE hand-held programmer. If you’re not happy with the upgrade, they will alter the map to suit your needs or offer a refund guarantee.

Although they specialise in TDI & Turbo petrol, non-turbos can also be upgraded, but with lower gains. Typically, you can expect increases of 25-35 percent for a turbo diesel, 20-25 percent for a turbo petrol and up to 10 percent, with much better throttle response, for a normally aspirated petrol. On some TDIs they can delete the DPF and EGR.

Power and torque come in lower down the rev range and last longer. Hence there is less need to rev so hard and change gear to get in the power band. Our tunes improve throttle response, power, torque, plus give fuel savings on turbo diesels. There may also be fuel savings for petrol engines due to less gear changing.
