Fuel Optimisation Programme

All drivers have a collective responsibility to make the best use of the fuel we buy and burn. Airmax has in-depth knowledge and can optimise most vehicles to give at least a 15% improvement in diesel fuel economy.

All modern vehicles use sophisticated Electronic Control Units (ECU) to manage every aspect of the operation of the vehicle.

ECUs controlling the engine determine all-important aspects of the internal combustion process, including the quantity of fuel, ignition timing and other parameters. In doing so it is trying to optimise the engine’s efficiency under any given set of conditions—hot, cold, heavy load, accelerating etc.

Often, this optimisation is a compromise, where the manufacturer is balancing the needs of the world market they are supplying and not taking account of driving and the road conditions.

By re-profiling the firmware within the ECUs, through a process called “Fuel Optimisation” we can provide a better set of running parameters for the engine for typical UK driving conditions and styles. Historically ECUs were ‘chipped’ or re-mapped for power or performance but these days this includes specific mapping for fuel economy and resultant lowering of CO₂.

Having your cars ECU fuel optimised we arrange all the parameters that are set for compromise to optimise. This in turn gives better fuel consumption, more power, lower CO₂ levels at specific, optimum and usual driving conditions, reduces and eliminates flat spots giving you a smoother power curve for a better driving experience all of this can be achieved without reaching any of the safe tolerance put on the engine and therefore not affecting it’s life.

Our fuel optimisation program is fully warranted and is completely reversible.
