Lets Work Together

Important Note: Speed limiters are often in place to comply with legal regulations, manufacturer guidelines, and insurance policies. Removing them on public roads can have legal and insurance implications. Always confirm the legality of speed limiter removal in your region and use your vehicle responsibly.


Why Remove Speed Limiters?


Maximize Performance
Many modern vehicles come with built-in electronic speed limiters. By removing or adjusting these limits, you can tap into the engine’s full power and achieve higher top speeds—particularly useful in track or off-road scenarios where legal restrictions do not apply.


Greater Control
Some drivers find a speed-limited vehicle restrictive. Removing the limiter can offer a more responsive driving experience, allowing you to control how and when you reach higher speeds.


Optimised for Private & Off-Road Use
If your vehicle is used primarily on private property, closed-circuit tracks, or certain off-road conditions, a removed or raised speed limit may be suitable—provided it is safe and legally compliant in your area.


Custom Tuning Options
Speed limiter removal can be combined with other performance tuning modifications (e.g., ECU remapping or exhaust upgrades) to create a comprehensive performance package for enthusiast drivers and motorsport applications.

The Speed Limiter Removal Process


  1. Vehicle Assessment
    We start by evaluating your vehicle’s make, model, and ECU type to ensure compatibility with our speed limiter removal tools and software.

  2. Diagnostics & Data Extraction
    Using specialized diagnostic equipment, we read your ECU data, identifying the specific parameters responsible for restricting top speed. This also helps us check for any existing error codes or system issues.

  3. ECU Modification
    We then modify or remove the speed limiter settings, ensuring that all changes are done safely and thoroughly tested. Our approach maintains engine reliability and respects the vehicle’s operational limits.

  4. Testing & Validation
    After the new settings are applied, we run tests to confirm that the limiter has been successfully removed (or adjusted) and that there are no adverse effects on engine performance or drivability.

  5. Aftercare & Support
    We believe in ongoing support. Our team is available to address any questions or concerns you may have post-service, and we can provide guidance on responsible usage of your newly adjusted vehicle.

  • Removal of Engine Parts for Remapping
    No removal of engine components is required. The ECU remapping process is entirely non-invasive; we simply connect our remapping equipment to your vehicle's ECU to replace the existing settings with new configurations.
  • Reverting to Original Factory Settings
    We keep a backup of your ECU settings, so it’s super easy to switch from the modified software back to the original.
  • Detection of ECU Remapping by Dealerships
    In most cases, dealerships will not be able to detect that an ECU remap has been performed. However, if you have concerns, you can get in touch, and we will restore your original settings from the backup we created.
  • How Long Does It Take?
    It usually takes up to two hours, but it can vary depending on the type of engine and the manufacturer. The great thing is, it’s a non-invasive process!
  • Manufacturer’s Software Updates and ECU Remapping
    If your vehicle requires a manufacturer's software update, the new software will overwrite the modified software we have performed. If you wish to have the software reinstalled, please get in contact.
  • If I Get a Remap, Will I Lose My Driving Modes?
    No. Your driving modes like ECO, NORMAL, and SPORT/DYNAMIC will remain intact. The ECU stays the same, so you’ll get more power in all modes without losing their unique features.
  • Why Don’t Manufacturers Do It?
    Manufacturers usually make one vehicle that has to work in all sorts of markets. They have to consider various factors, such as tax rules, emissions standards, fuel types, and weather conditions, which often result in performance compromises.
  • Impact of Remapping on Engine Stress
    We approach our work with careful consideration and do not carry out remapping on vehicles that are not suitable. Prior to any remapping work, we conduct a comprehensive diagnostic health check.
  • Is Remapping Beneficial for Smaller City Cars?
    Absolutely. It can enhance the performance of a wide variety of vehicles, ranging from compact city cars to tractors.
  • What Are Pop & Bangs? And Are They Dangerous?
    If done correctly, they’re totally safe. However, if pushed too far, they can damage parts like valves, the exhaust system, or even the turbo. That’s why it’s crucial to choose experts like Intelli Tune for controlled tuning.
  • Notification to Insurance Company Regarding ECU Remapping
    Inform your insurance company about the ECU remap, as it is a modification to the vehicle.
  • What Warranty Do You Give?
    Every Intelli Tune remap comes with a lifetime warranty against software issues. If anything goes wrong with the installation, we’ll fix it for free.
