About EPL
Factory smoothness with EPL’s attitude
Performance tuning is as much art as it is a science. Since 2001, Tony and the crew at European Performance Labs have been at the forefront of the horsepower envelope. Whether you drive an 800HP turbo Porsche, or a bone stock Volkswagen GTI, EPL has a powerful, reliable tune for your European auto. We are true car guys, just like you, and thrive on seeing our customers and products running up front.
Our unique position in the industry
allows for distinct advantages compared to the competition. Lets start with our dyno. Our in-house, Mustang eddy-current dynamometer gives us unparalleled access and control during the tuning process. We can vary load and speed to simulate any real world driving condition, with enough airflow to support the needs of even the highest horsepower cars.
Second, our tunes are not simply out of the box calibrations.
Each file is a full-sector reflash, modifying not only certain maps, but also rewriting the routines and the internal software of the ECU. This allows us to modify the behavior of the conservative factory strategies, as well as incorporate ground-breaking features such as two-step launch control or multiple file switching without a reflash. We do all of this without any piggy-back boxes, additional hardware or wiring. We strive to bring you features that you desire without sacrificing the OEM reliability of your Bosch Motronic system.
Lastly, our internet-based reflash server
delivers your performance files securely encrypted over the same computer that you might be using to read this, directly to the diagnostic port on your car. You don’t need to remove your ECU or render your car immobile, simply use one of our flash cables and any updates or modifications can be delivered remotely.
We love custom projects.
Have an idea for something crazy? We’d love to be involved in the hardware engineering and tuning process. Want to go racing? We can offer tunes and hardware that are geared for competition, even on-location trackside support to help your testing. Our software has even been behind Mark DaVia’s 5-time winning Porsche turbo effort on the One Lap of America.
