Tuners adjust the air and fuel mixture in your vehicle to maximize your engine\u2019s power. If you want more control over your engine\u2019s horsepower, installing a tuner in your vehicle may be the right choice for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Basics<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Tuners help tell your car\u2019s computer at what rate to inject fuel into your engine. Programmers and tuners<\/a> can be important parts of modified vehicles. Installing one may result in your car having more power than ever before, so a tuner may be a great choice for you. These are some of the most popular reasons for installing a tuner in your vehicle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Benefits of Tuning<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Tuning allows you to modify the factory settings on your vehicle. Factory settings prioritize safety and reliability over speed and power. This means that tuning your vehicle can significantly increase your horsepower and even your fuel efficiency. Because tuning modifies the fuel and air mixture in your car, it\u2019s also a great choice if you\u2019ve recently modified your exhaust system. With more horsepower, you\u2019ll notice a difference in the way your car handles, and you\u2019ll have a better driving experience overall. Tuners can be a great choice if you want to prioritize boost in your car.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The History of Tuning<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In the early days of tuning, mechanics would \u201ctune up\u201d cars by turning a screw on your engine. It may sound simple, but the process could take hours to get right. With the addition of computers to cars, tuning became controllable by computers, and mechanics no longer had to worry about tuning up a car in the same way. Still, vehicle enthusiasts realized that the programming in these computer systems prioritized reliability over speed. They started to figure out their own ways to hack into the computer systems and customize their vehicles. Early tuners were sometimes a risk\u2014you had to trust the person you got them from\u2014but now, they\u2019ve become standardized and reliable as we\u2019ve learned more about tuning. As tuners became more widely used, they grew better and better, eventually becoming the products we have today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Shop Tuning Versus Handheld Tuning<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Tunes work through a handheld machine or through a qualified mechanic. Shop tuning with a mechanic can be expensive, requires a longer wait time, and may need updates based on your road performance. Handheld tuning puts the power of changing the tune in your hands, and you can make changes based on your car\u2019s road performance without having to wait for an appointment. Handheld tuning is a great option if you know a lot about your car and want your own control over its performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Deciding To Tune Your Vehicle<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If you are perfectly happy with the performance of your vehicle now, a tuner may not be necessary. However, if unlocking the potential of your car, increasing horsepower, and maximizing fuel efficiency interest you, a tuner could be the right call for you. Maximize your car\u2019s power with a tuner today!<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
