Stage 1 remapping in New Haw, West Byfleet and Sheerwater
More than half of households in the New Haw, West Byfleet and Sheerwater built-up area had two or more cars in the 2021 Census: 53.8%, against 35.4% across England and Wales. Just 9.5% had no car at all. With a car in almost every home, the question for most drivers here is less about owning one and more about how it drives. Stage 1 remapping deals with that in software. It changes the engine's fuel, boost and timing settings, kept within the engine's limits, and no parts are added. On a diesel the result is stronger mid-range torque, which makes hills, overtakes and a full load feel easier. Your insurer must be told about a remap, whichever car in the household it is on.
