This was running 99ron which allowed us to tune this without worries of fuel quality. Huge volume in both power and torque curves especially in the mid range. Logs spot on with 1.45bar and tailed off to give huge mid range without straining the turbo and giving it as much boost as possible till redline. This was a night and day difference on the road with a nice strong pull through the rev range whilst remaining linear and not just lighting the tyres up in lower gears. A little pocket rocket 🚀

⚡ BMW G21 330e STAGE 1 – ELECTRIFICATION CAN BE FUN! 🚀

**419 BHP | 496 LB-FT** 🔥 Who said plug-in hybrids can't be exciting? This 2021 BMW 330e Touring recently visited PERON HQ for our Stage 1 ECU calibration, demonstrating just how much potential lies within BMW's B48 turbocharged petrol engine when combined with electric assistance. Running on 97 RON fuel, with a rear silencer delete and otherwise standard hardware, the results speak for themselves! 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗗𝗬𝗡𝗢 𝗥𝗘𝗦𝗨𝗟𝗧𝗦 📈 Stock: 306 BHP | 346 LB-FT Stage 1: 419 BHP | 496 LB-FT 🚀 GAINS: +113 BHP | +150 LB-FT! These figures represent the combined petrol and electric output, with sufficient battery charge maintained throughout testing. 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗖𝗔𝗟𝗜𝗕𝗥𝗔𝗧𝗜𝗢𝗡 ⚙️ With extensive experience calibrating the B48 platform across BMW and MINI applications, our engineers first carried out a bench unlock of the locked Bosch MG1CS201 ECU. From there, we developed our Stage 1 calibration, optimising the petrol engine's performance and revising torque limits to allow the hybrid system to work effectively alongside the additional power. ✅ Bosch MG1CS201 ECU bench unlock ✅ PERON Stage 1 ECU calibration ✅ Optimised petrol and electric power delivery ✅ Factory gearbox and electric motor software retained ✅ Torque carefully limited to protect the rear differential 𝗣𝗘𝗥𝗙𝗢𝗥𝗠𝗔𝗡𝗖𝗘 𝗪𝗜𝗧𝗛 𝗥𝗘𝗟𝗜𝗔𝗕𝗜𝗟𝗜𝗧𝗬 🛠️ While these hybrid drivetrains can produce even greater torque, we deliberately limited output to remain within the hardware limits we consider appropriate. The result? 419 BHP from a practical plug-in hybrid estate, delivering serious performance without sacrificing everyday usability. ⚡ Electrification doesn't have to mean sacrificing driving enjoyment! 📩 Interested in unlocking your BMW's potential? Contact PERON Automotive to discuss our ECU calibration packages. #PERONAutomotive #BMW330e #BMWG21 #BMWTuning #Stage1 #B48 #HybridPerformance #BMWPerformance #ECUTuning #DynoTuning #PlugInHybrid #TruePerformance

Eventually. ⏳ Proof that you don't need 1500 BHP to make history! #MalloryPerformance #Peugeot205 #DynoRecord #LowestPowerRecord #DynoTesting

A very special project recently arrived at PERON HQ, belonging to our good Scottish customer Jack, who competes in the Super Lap Scotland Time Attack Championship in his Ford Focus RS Mk1! 🏁 This UK-first setup combines a TVS Engineering-supplied DQ250 DSG gearbox with MQB mechatronics, working alongside Syvecs engine management in a car never designed to run a DSG transmission 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗖𝗛𝗔𝗟𝗟𝗘𝗡𝗚𝗘 🔧 When Jack brought the car down to PERON, the gearbox was struggling to operate correctly, either refusing to engage gears or being unable to shift beyond second. Getting a conversion like this working isn't simply a case of plugging in a laptop and uploading software. It requires an understanding of the gearbox, mechatronics, vehicle electronics and communication between the engine and transmission. 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗦𝗢𝗟𝗨𝗧𝗜𝗢𝗡 ⚙️ Working closely with TVS Engineering and Jack himself, our PERON engineers tackled the issues step by step: ✅ Verified the gearbox wiring and electrical connections ✅ Reviewed the Syvecs ECU configuration and communication ✅ Worked directly with TVS Engineering to identify calibration issues ✅ Developed and installed revised TVS DSG software ✅ Successfully completed the required gearbox adaptation procedures ✅ Restored gear selection and functional upshifts and downshifts 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗥𝗘𝗦𝗨𝗟𝗧 🚀 From a car that couldn't drive properly to a functioning DSG conversion, selecting gears and shifting as intended! A huge milestone for Jack and his Focus RS, with the next stage being on-track testing and further calibration refinement ahead of the upcoming Super Lap Scotland season. Projects like this demonstrate that TVS Engineering offers far more than conventional DSG remapping. With the right hardware, software and technical expertise, we can help bring complex transmission conversions to life. PERON Automotive works directly with TVS to support everything from everyday DSG upgrades through to bespoke motorsport applications. 📩 Planning a DSG conversion or need specialist TVS gearbox support? Get in touch with the PERON team to discuss your project.

Imagine paying for a remap that promises big gains, only to receive a file that hasn’t been tested on your car. Rescaling the accelerator pedal can make it feel more powerful without actually increasing its maximum power. Worse still, a badly written calibration can put the engine at risk. You don’t even need a rolling road to measure the results. A properly set up road dyno, using a sensor attached to a wheel, can calculate power from the car’s weight, speed and acceleration, with road resistance and test conditions taken into account. So if a mobile tuner isn’t measuring the results, what are their power claims based on? And if a tuning centre owns a rolling road, why aren’t they using it to check your car? Today’s BMW 335d xDrive is a good example. I thought my first calibration would give a good result, but testing showed just 320 HP, up from 300 HP standard. That told us there was more work to do. We reworked the calibration and tested again, finishing at 380 HP and just under 700 Nm. 𝗦𝘁𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗮𝗿𝗱: 𝟯𝟬𝟬 𝗛𝗣 𝗙𝗶𝗿𝘀𝘁 𝗰𝗮𝗹𝗶𝗯𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻: 𝟯𝟮𝟬 𝗛𝗣 𝗙𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘂𝗹𝘁: 𝟯𝟴𝟬 𝗛𝗣 / 𝗷𝘂𝘀𝘁 𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿 𝟳𝟬𝟬 𝗡𝗺 The ZF 8HP gearbox also received a custom calibration for faster shifts, with increased clutch pressure to help the clutch packs hold the extra torque and reduce the risk of slipping. Anyone can quote a power figure. Testing shows what the car actually delivers, and checking how the engine behaves under load matters just as much as the headline number.

Our VRM Lookup is now back up and running for UK users - giving you much more than just basic vehicle information. Enter a UK registration and get the key technical information you need to identify the correct tuning route and determine how the job can be carried out. 🔎 What can the VRM Lookup tell you? ✅ Vehicle make, model & year ✅ Engine & fuel information ✅ Engine/ECU identification ✅ ECU manufacturer & ECU type ✅ Supported programming methods ✅ Applicable tools and protocols ✅ Potential tuning stages & available gains ✅ Power and torque figures For example, this 2012 MINI Cooper S comes back with: ECU: Bosch MEVD17.2.2 Engine: N18B16M0 Original: 181 BHP / 240 Nm Stage 1: 210 BHP / 340 Nm Stage 2: 235 BHP / 381 Nm But the real value is knowing what ECU you're dealing with and which tools/methods are available to carry out the required job. 🔥 Less guesswork. More information. Better preparation. Whether you're checking a vehicle before a customer arrives or planning your next tuning job, the VRM Lookup puts the information you need at your fingertips. Just head into the Vehicle Lookup on your portal, enter the registration and let the system do the work for you. IT’S THAT SIMPLE.

It had been mapped years ago before OBD programming was unlocked for these ECUs, meaning it had an old-school tuning board physically installed inside. 🛠️ The MSD Process: 1️⃣ Safely removed the outdated board and physical modification. 2️⃣ Restored the ECU back to full stock factory software. 3️⃣ Applied our modern, Evolution Chips calibration via the OBD port. The result? Smooth, reliable power, correct safety limits, and optimal performance for the setup. 🏁 📲 Got an older tune or hardware modification you want updating properly?
