A fost foarte placuta experienta cu baietii de la AMC Motorsport. Sunt foarte amabili si profesionisti . M-au ajutat cu o Mazda 3 BP G122 manuala din 2021. Puterea a crescut pana la 163 de cai iar plaja de cuplu imbunatatita cu 10 Nm. Imi place ca masina acum trage de la turatii joase constant, iar consumul nu a fost afectat cu mult.

Foarte multumit de ce au reusit cei de la AMC! Am fost cu un Mazda CX3 SkyactivG 121, cu stage 1, acestia au reusit sa scoata 162,8CP. De cum am plecat de la ei si am facut un drum mai lung s-a simtit diferenta. Baietii foarte de treaba, prompti si mi-au oferit unele sfaturi de care aveam nevoie fara nici o problema. Cu siguranta m-as intoarce la ei ori de cate ori voi avea nevoie.

Recomand cu drag AMC Motorsport! Tot procesul a decurs lin si clar, am primit toate explicatiile necesare, a existat flexibilitate la programare. D.p.d.v. al rezultatelor pot spune ca am venit cu o masina si am plecat cu alta, un raspuns mult mai bun, mai predictibil atat din punct de vedere putere cat si cuplu. Suplimentar, fara sa masor, consumul a fost mult mai bun. Las mai jos rezultatul masurat care vorbeste de la sine. Ps: mazda mx5 mc cu galerie de evacuare il mororspor 4.1 + soft amc

How does it go?
You book online, with your car already filled in. At the workshop the car goes on the dyno as it is: first measurement and full diagnostics. We write the calibration for your engine, within its limits, then the second measurement. You leave with the chart of the two curves overlaid. 1.5-2 hours, in Brasov, Str. Carpatilor 60. The original software stays in our archive with no time limit. How a dyno test goes, with a real chart →

ECU remap Mazda 3 1.6 MZ-CD 115 HP
For the Mazda 3 1.6 MZ-CD 115 HP, AMC Motorsport offers chiptuning and ECU remapping developed individually on its own dyno. The Stage 1 calibration takes the engine to 140 HP and 330 Nm, keeping the reliability of the original components.
AMC Motorsport is a workshop in Brasov specialising in chiptuning and ECU remapping since 2009, for diesel and petrol engines. We have developed and measured on the dyno thousands of calibrations for a wide range of makes and engines, with Stage 1 solutions developed individually. The aim is a real increase in power and torque, with the reliability and refinement you would expect from a professional calibration.
Read more about Stage 1
Stage 1, chiptuning, ECU remapping or ECU tuning: what is the difference?
They all describe the same service, only the term is different:
- Chiptuning: the established term from the 1990s, when the memory chips in the engine computer were physically replaced.
- ECU remapping or ECU tuning: the modern technical name, because the maps in the engine control unit are recalibrated.
- Resoftare or softare: the terms most often used in Romania for the same work.
- Stage 1: the international standard for optimising the software on fully original hardware.
What does a properly done Stage 1 involve?
It is more than raising a few values in the software. It means recalibrating the engine's control strategies so that it makes better use of the margin left by the factory: torque request and management, internal limiters, boost pressure, injection quantity and strategy, timing, pedal response and protection strategies. All of these work together; what matters is not only how much power you get, but how it is delivered.
How we work on the Mazda 1.6 MZ-CD
We check the technical condition and the original software, develop the calibration for this engine, measure it on the dyno and analyse how it behaves under load. The result is a car that responds more readily and pulls more flexibly when accelerating, picking up speed and overtaking, with no mechanical modifications and with the power delivered in a controlled, sustained way.
