Thread: 2001 td5 auto ecu mapping information

If I had my time over I would have given Davis Performance a go.

Re: checking tunes with Nanocom I don’t think so but other will confirm.

Although not in Australia, td5 inside are very good. The difference it makes is greatly improved.

Unfortunately he can’t keep up with his potential customers .
Took many months for an initial response and to date still waiting.

I have no experience with a Davis tune, however, have read a number of posts with concerns of high EGT and quite aggressive.
This was some time ago and improvements may have been made.
Worth giving them a call.
TRS in Adelaide will also do a remap.

Checking remap I think you can tell if you read out the map and it'll de a .tun file and not a .map
I have s stage 1 tune and can check this afternoon if someone more knowledgeable doesn't chime in first

Also if you can't find an Aussie tunes maybe give Alive tuning UK a try??

Cheers Lemo

Also ask some questions
What type of tuning do they do??
Can they remap the current sensor maps to allow use of existing map and maf and waste gate without using things like boost boxes etc??

You can download the file onto a SD card, then place the SD card into a computer and open it as a text file.
In my case there were text lines which showed who had developed the tune.

The stock tune has lots of information and shows it was developed by Volvo.

You only need the boost box if you plan on running over 20 psi. It stops it from going into over boost or fuel cut out. I would still try td5 inside and see if you get a reply or not. He can be hard to contact some times. But the remap is worth it.

Or a rescaled map sensor?
