A Dastek Unichip is a piggyback system that doesn't alter the factory ECU file, which is why it's a common choice for warranty-sensitive vehicles. Direct ECU remaps are a separate discussion — we'll talk you through the trade-offs for your specific vehicle at your consultation.
Our Unichip installs include an in-cab switch giving you up to 5 tuned profiles — Immobiliser, Stock, Towing, Consumption, and Performance — so you can match the engine's behaviour to what you're doing that day.
Turnaround depends on the service — hardware installs and dyno tuning are usually same-day, while fabrication work varies with complexity. We'll confirm a timeline at your consultation.
Our Venom Performance Tuning software and fabrication services suit most modern and utility vehicles. Get in touch to confirm compatibility with your vehicle.
