Stage 1 tuning
We look at tuning cars, and taking the car to stage 1, where most people start. We blow open many common myths around common stage 1 mods, and help you decide which are the best mods for your car and upgrade options.
Clutch tuning: performance clutch modifications and triple plate clutches setupThe clutch takes the engine power, and puts this down through the drive shaft, to the driven wheels on the road but allows you to disengage the engine whilst performing a gear change.
Contact like this requires a lot of grip and a fast response. The more power you have the harder it is for the clutch to operate.
Gearbox RemappingWe look at ways to improve gearchanges on your automatic gearbox. Remapping the gearbox will improve shift times, improve acceleration and provide a more lively drive. So OBD port engine tuning/remapping of modern gearboxes is possible and certainly a mod you should consider.
Brake PadsWhich type of Brake Pad Should you choose, with the array of materials and options it can make a big difference to your cars braking.
