WHEELS AND TYRES
A high grade, well-treaded set of tyres are the first point in the braking system of your car and keeping your car gripped to the road. Just as important are properly aligned and balanced wheels to ensure your vehicle travels and straight and handles safely.
If you are experiencing poor handling or vibrations while driving, have noticed your tyres deflating quickly, have low tyre tread or can see obvious damage to your tyres, then it’s time to get them checked.
VEHICLE MODIFICATIONS
A number of Carline stores are state and federally recognised vehicle engineers and certifiers and are authorised to provide engineering certificates, Blue ‘Mod Plates’ and VSCCS Compliance Certificates for all states and Territories of Australia.
As legislation varies from state-to-state and individual stores may hold different certifications from one another, it’s best to give your nearest certified Carline a call to find out if they’re right for you.
ECU TUNING
The benefits of ECU remapping include: Improved Torque and Power Remapping the ECU can remove the limitations set by the car manufacturer. The tuner inputs new parameters that are suitable for the area you do most of your driving.
Increased Fuel Economy: With proper tuning, the engine can achieve more power throughout its ranges. This means you’re able to use less throttle to cruise at certain speeds. When you apply less throttle on the road you burn less fuel. With good driving practices, you can improve the number of kilometers you can travel within a single tank of fuel.
Performance and Response: Once your engine is performing better than before, then its other functions would follow suit. You would notice a great improvement in turning, stopping, and speeding through different surfaces. Even if you only use your car for going to and from work daily, the little performance boost would bring huge rewards over time.
Customised For Your Vehicle: The best thing about ECU remapping is that you can personalise it for your needs. The tuner would ask you about driving preferences and requirements, and can come up with remaps to suit your driving needs. This is useful if you have a vehicle that you use on various driving conditions and terrains.
Things To Consider: You should look into whether your car can be remapped or not, models made prior to 2000 don’t have the ECU required to optimise the performance of the vehicle. It‘s also important to find a reputable tuner to do the remapping for you, that way you can reduce the risks of something going wrong. An established company can provide long-term warranty giving you assurance should something go wrong in the future.
