Pricing

What Each Engine Costs To Map

Prices are set per engine and published in full.

£449 To £549

Most BMW diesels, petrols such as the 330i and 435i, and most VAG cars are £449. The Golf R and Audi S3, S4 and S5 are £549.

£599 To £799

B58 engines such as the M240i, and F-chassis M2, M3 and M4, are £599. S58 cars like the G80 M3 are £699. Porsche petrols (Turbo models excepted), and BMW’s 4.4 V8 M50i and M60i, are £799.

£999 To £1,499

Audi RS models such as the RS5, the Formentor VZ5, Porsche Turbo models, and the BMW M850i are £999. The BMW M5, M6, M8, X5 M and X6 M are £1,499, with Stage 2 at £1,799.

Stage 2 is £150 more than the Stage 1 price for your engine, or £200 more on the £999 cars, and it relies on supporting parts, for example a sports downpipe. Porsche is on the list too, from £599 for the diesels. Look up your exact engine on Check My Car or the full price list.

4WD Dyno

Both Axles Driven Under Load

Our V-Tech rolling road couples its front and rear rollers mechanically, which lets xDrive, quattro and 4Motion cars run at full power safely.

While the map is refined we log air-fuel ratio, boost and temperatures on every pull. Dyno power runs without a tune are available too: three runs with a printout, £150 on 2WD or £200 on 4WD.

Wilmslow FAQs

Questions About Faster Cars

How far is Wilmslow from your workshop?

About 20 to 24 miles, around 35 minutes outside rush hour. Handforth and Styal are similar, Morley is nearer 30, and Alderley Edge and Dean Row are about 40.

Is the M56 or the M60 better from Wilmslow?

Either works. The A538 and M56 is the main route from the town centre, and the A34 and M60 takes about the same time. Both end on the A574 into Birchwood.

Why does an RS5 or M3 cost more than a Golf R?

We price by engine. A Golf R is £549, B58 engines and F-chassis M cars are £599, S58 cars such as the G80 M3 are £699, and Audi RS models £999.

Can you tune xDrive and quattro cars?

Yes. Our dyno is 4WD linked, so all-wheel-drive cars, the Macan included, run with both axles driven at full load while the map is written.

Is a 2022 M3 or RS5 locked?

Yes: BMW and Audi ECUs built from around June 2020 to mid-2026 are locked. The M3 is opened on our bench in the same appointment, adding £100 and no time. The RS5’s 2.9 V6 can be unlocked in-house for £449 on top of the tune, in the same appointment, or sent away for £399, in which case the car stays with us for 3 to 4 working days. Both Audi prices are on our ECU unlocking page. Cars from either brand built from June 2026 carry a newer lock, so we can’t tune them for now.

Can you return the car to standard if I sell it?

Yes. The car can be put back to factory software, and that is a £200 job.
