Tuned at JF Automotive, MaidstoneDecember 2016Figures from our dyno data

Land Rovers and Range Rovers are heavy, and that is rather the point of tuning one. Peak power matters less than whether the engine pulls cleanly from low revs with a full car, a roof load or a trailer behind it, which is exactly where a standard calibration tends to feel laziest. This page covers the engine and gearbox work we do and how we verify it on our own dyno. What is realistic depends on your exact engine and ECU, so we confirm that from your registration first.

JF Automotive – a Kent UK based company have become market leaders for ECU re-calibration for more power and enhanced fuel efficiency. Calibrating software to the highest level requires passion and enthusiasm and we strive to impart this into your vehicle to deliver a fulfilling sensation every time you drive.

Land Rover Engine ECU Remapping

Land Rover ECU Remapping will offer great power and fuel economy enhancements , however as with most vehicles the peak power gains are only half the benefit. You will also find power delivery earlier in the rev range due to additional low down torque and sharper throttle response along with vast improvements to mid-range torque providing a wider power band.

Land Rover Gearbox TCU Remapping.

If your Land Rover is fitted with an automatic or semi automatic transmission we can perform a gearbox remap in additional to the engine remap. A gearbox remap for your Land Rover will offer faster gear shift speeds, smoother shifts, faster reaction to paddle shift inputs and improved mid range torque by releasing torque limiters. Transmission lock is also improved giving a faster response during acceleration and assisting with kick down at low speeds.

Land Rover Dyno Tuning

Our purpose built research and development facility houses out very own Mustang AWD 2000BHP linked dyno. This allows us to accurately measure every parameter we adjust making sure a tune is every bit as safe as it it powerful. When booking your Land Rover ECU remap, book a set of dyno runs to see a full print out of power before and after the tuning.

Land Rover Performance Exhaust System

We have a range of exhaust systems available for your Land Rover including Milltek, Remus, Capristo, Akrapovič and many more. Just ask us for a quotation.

Questions we get asked

Will a remap help with towing?

It usually does, because the extra mid range torque is precisely what you draw on when pulling away with a trailer or climbing with a load. Tell us how you use the vehicle when you book and we will map it for that rather than for a headline figure.

Can you tune the gearbox as well?

Yes. On the automatic cars a gearbox remap sharpens shift speed, smooths the shifts and revises the shift points, and releases the torque limiters that would otherwise hold back the engine map.

Do you tune the plug-in hybrid Land Rovers?

Yes, and we have a separate page covering the Land Rover hybrid Stage 1 tune. The approach differs, because it is the combustion engine's ECU that we work on rather than the hybrid system itself.
