Customisable Tuning Boxes | Unichip Europe
What is a 'Tuning Box' & why are Unichip Modules unique?
Simply put, a rudimentary Tuning Box is designed to intercept signals between your vehicle's ECU (Engine Control Unit), in an attempt to force your ECU into injecting more fuel into the cylinders - thereby creating more power.
We are not the same.
The Unichip Module is better described as a "Universal Multi - Processor ECU Tuning Tool". The Unichip adjusts more than just an engine's fuel & ignition requirements. There are a myriad of other engine parameters it can control, giving our team of passionate and meticulous tuners MUCH more control & refinement when it comes to tuning your engine - creating truly customisable tuning boxes.
What our customers are saying...
"It's a totally different car to drive - responsive as hell and pulls better than I could have hoped for. And no, they are not cheap but like anything that is any good isn't. Richard who done the mapping seriously knows his stuff check them out, I'd give them 11 out of 10 if I could..."

"If you're running a 1HD-FTE don't waste time and money on other chips that might be cheaper, but really can't be compared to the Unichip. It's the only solution that has the necessary map-ability, fuel cut defence, and boost control capabilities necessary to make the FTE engine really come alive..."

Modification Made Easy
Cars today are beautifully engineered – they are an intricate fusion of thousands of different components that are all designed to run in efficient unison. The many sections of your car are all controlled by the Engine Control Unit (ECU) and you would think that when you purchase a new car, it's built to run optimally. However, this is rarely the case. When developing vehicle engine management systems, car manufacturers will often make compromises to account for the different operations and environments that a car will operate in.
No two cars are the same under the bonnet – and no two cars will experience the same climate, fuel quality, service intervals and driving styles.
As a result, car manufacturers will fix the engine management systems of the car with settings (also known as a map), that are middle of the road, geared towards the typical driver – this does not often account for European driving styles and high-quality fuels. Those who wish to modify their car and increase efficiency, can modify the ECU – but this does not always work in the intended manner, can seriously harm other aspects of the car and may even prove to be dangerous.
That's where Unichip steps in…

How Long Does It Take to Fit?
Typically, the Unichip Tuning Kits take 30 - 45 minutes to install with a very basic mechanical understanding. Find your vehicle's ECU, unplug the connections, plug in your Unichip kit, and then plug your existing ECU connections into the Unichip wiring harness to complete the circuit.
Some older vehicles, such as the early Land Cruiser 100 Series models, have a conventional actuator-controlled wastegate turbo. You may need a Unichip Boost Control Kit in order to control boost pressure, which adds a further few steps and prolongs the installation process by another 30 minutes or so. Don't worry though - we've got a comprehensive guides complete with image guidance to help you through it.

What Are the Benefits?
Unichip is an advanced physical map-based system that will track driver demand and driver RPM, and manipulate those signals in a very specific way. The all-encompassing nature of the Unichip means that it can manipulate throttle maps, injection pump timing as well as adjust boost pressure with total accuracy. Alternatives such as tuning boxes and re-flashes are far cruder in comparison and offer far less control when modifying your car.
Furthermore, one of the greatest benefits of Unichip is that with the there is never any trace left on the car that a Unichip was installed. When you modify a car rudimentarily through a re-flash, this will be logged in the car, and will be detected by the supplier of the car. If you have a car under warranty or through a hire purchase agreement it is even more inadvisable. With a Unichip, you can modify your car safely and discreetly giving you total peace of mind.
An additional, significant benefit of Unichip is that for those owners concerned about the vulnerability of their car – an immobilizer security map can be installed, to secure your car against the current trend of key cloning and vehicle theft. Anyone attempting to drive your car without your key, will soon find that it has been rendered useless. This is complimentary addition to most Premium / Ultimate Plug and Play Kits that we stock.
