ECU tuning services
Bring the vehicle to the bay, or send the ECU file. Stage 1 through 3, gearbox and TCU work, DPF and AdBlue programming, limiter removal and board-level ECU repair.
The short answer
Binary Blitz works on anything with an engine control unit: cars, 4x4s, trucks, buses, JCB and construction plant, agricultural machinery, generators, marine engines and jet skis.
Performance remaps run Stage 1 to Stage 3, at a partner workshop in Abu Dhabi or Sharjah, or from a file you send in from anywhere.
Every performance job is timed on a Dragy Pro on the factory file and again on the tuned one, in a single session on one stretch of road.
- Stage 1 in the bay
- 2 to 4 hours
- Hardware, bench or file
- 24 to 48 hours
- Typical gain
- 15 to 30 percent
Software only, vehicle present
Fitting, bench reads, files sent in
Forced induction. 5 to 12 naturally aspirated, and neither is guaranteed
Performance & drivability
Power, torque delivery and how the gearbox behaves once the engine makes more of both.
Stage 1, 2 & 3
Performance Tuning
We rewrite the torque request, ignition timing and boost tables against the fuel you actually buy here. Typical Stage 1 is 15-30% on forced induction and 5-12% naturally aspirated. We tell you which one your engine is before you book.
VMAX & Fleet Caps
Speed Limiter Removal
We lift the VMAX ceiling and the soft limiter in neutral, or set a lower cap across a fleet. UAE speed limits are enforced by camera regardless of what the ECU allows, so treat the upper end as a closed-course change.
TCU Calibration
Gearbox Tuning
A Patrol's 7AT hunts between third and fourth because the factory shift map is chasing fuel economy. We move the shift points, raise line pressure and lock the torque converter earlier so it stops searching.
Emissions & intake
Regeneration cycles, urea dosing and the intake hardware that fails around them. Road-legal fixes first.
Regeneration Faults
DPF & EGR Work
Most DPF trouble is a regeneration cycle that never completes or a blocked differential-pressure sensor, and on a road-registered vehicle that is what we fix. Software removal is for plant and machinery that never sees a road.
Intake Manifold
Swirl Flap & TVA
Swirl flaps seize, snap, and go straight into the cylinder. Once the manifold work is done we delete them in software so the ECU stops looking for a part that is no longer fitted.
Trucks, Buses & Plant
Commercial DPF & AdBlue
DPF and AdBlue programming for working vehicles: Mercedes, Fuso Canter, Ford, Toyota, Mitsubishi, Dodge and SANY plant. We diagnose the regeneration and urea dosing faults that drop a truck into limp mode, and tell you upfront which fixes keep the vehicle road-legal and which are off-road only.
Diagnostics
Finding what set the code before anything is written, in the bay or over a remote session.
Diagnostics First
Fault Code Work
A warning light is a symptom. We read the freeze-frame data and find what set the code before touching it, on the manufacturer's own software rather than one generic box: Xentry, ISTA+, E-Sys, ODIS, Pathfinder, IDS, Techstream, HDS and Consult III.
Camera & Radar Aiming
ADAS Calibration
A new windscreen, a repaired bumper or a change in ride height leaves the forward camera and radar aimed at the wrong place. Lane keeping, adaptive cruise and automatic braking then work confidently against the wrong target. Static and dynamic calibration, run to the manufacturer's own procedure.
Case-by-Case Support
Remote Assistance
Secure remote diagnostic and programming support over TeamViewer and dedicated remote tools, wherever the vehicle is. Evaluated and quoted case by case.
ECU repair & recovery
Board-level work on modules other workshops have written off, including water damage.
Board-Level Service
ECU Hardware Repair
Board-level ECU repair: micro-soldering, component replacement and circuit restoration, plus ECU and TCU cloning with the checksum corrected so the module accepts the file. We usually recover units other shops write off, so the module does not have to be replaced.
Displays, Motors & Backlights
Instrument Cluster Repair
Dead pixels and blank bands across the display, a needle that sticks because the stepper motor behind it has worn, backlights gone dark, and water damage from a leaking seal. A replacement cluster also has to be programmed to the vehicle before the car will accept it.
Module Recovery
Flood Vehicle Recovery
Water leaves corrosion that reads as a dozen unrelated faults across unrelated modules. We recover what can be re-flashed, identify what has to be replaced, and tell you which is which before you spend anything.
Coding & specialist builds
Module coding, feature activation and recalibration for vehicles that left the factory and were changed.
Module Coding & Retrofits
Luxury Vehicle Programming
Module coding, feature activation and retrofit programming for Mercedes-Benz, BMW, Porsche, Bentley, Rolls-Royce and Range Rover. Most of what owners want on these cars is already in the module and switched off.
Immobiliser & Rolling Code
Key Programming
Adding a spare, replacing one that has gone missing, or all keys lost and the car will not crank. Rolling code systems, immobiliser matching, and deleting a key that is no longer in your hand. Proof that the vehicle is yours comes first, every time.
Ballistic Conversions
Armoured Vehicle Support
Armouring adds a tonne of mass and strips out electronics the ECU still expects to find. We recalibrate for the new weight, program DPF and AdBlue systems, reconfigure air suspension where heavy-duty springs have replaced the electronic setup, and recalibrate ADAS after ride height and sensor angles move. Includes the 2026 Mercedes G-Class and current BMW chassis.
Battery & high voltage
Hybrid and EV packs, and the charge strategy a chemistry change forces you to rewrite.
Hybrid & EV Systems
High Voltage Battery Service
Diagnostics and module-level repair for hybrid and EV high-voltage packs. We isolate failing modules, balance cells, set the charge and discharge limits the BMS protects to, recover a pack that latched itself off after an impact, and build custom packs where one cannot be bought.
Battery System Retrofit
Lithium to Lead-Acid Conversion
Changing battery chemistry changes the charge profile the vehicle must use. We re-register the battery and reconfigure the charging strategy so a lead-acid pack is not cooked or left chronically undercharged.
Plant, agriculture & marine
Machines that hold full load for hours instead of seconds, where there is no road to time them on.
In the bay, or by file
Two ways to get the work done, and they are not equivalent. The bay gets you a diagnostic scan and timed runs on your own vehicle. A file posted in gets you the calibration and nothing else.
How the two routes differ on turnaround, diagnostics and measurement.
| What you get | Most chosenVehicle in the bay | File sent in |
|---|---|---|
| Turnaround | 2 to 4 hours for Stage 1 software | 24 to 48 hours |
| Diagnostics first | Full fault scan before anything is written | Only what your own log shows us |
| Measurement | Dragy Pro passes before and after, plus ECU logs | ECU logs only, recorded by you |
| Hardware work | Intercoolers, headers and bench reads possible | Software only |
| Where | Partner workshops, Abu Dhabi and Sharjah | Quoted case by case, wherever you are |
| Best for | Anyone within driving distance who wants the before and after runs on their own vehicle. | Fleets going through in batches, workshops outside the UAE, and modules already off the vehicle. |
Who this suits
Some of what gets asked for here is the wrong job for the vehicle. We would rather say so before you book.
What this is good for
- Diesel 4x4s and pickups where mid-range torque is what actually helps.
- Trucks and plant dropping into limp mode on regeneration or urea dosing faults.
- Automatics where the factory TCU hunts for gears and refuses to downshift.
- ECUs other workshops have written off, including water damage and board-level failures.
What this is not for
- A DPF delete on a road-registered vehicle in the UAE. That hardware still has to be present at inspection, so we repair the regeneration strategy and the differential pressure sensor instead. Software removal is for plant and machinery that never sees a public road.
- Engines with an existing mechanical fault. Worn injectors and split boost pipes get fixed before the file is touched.
- Anyone who needs a signed dyno sheet to hand to a buyer.
