To succesfuly complete the Course, you are required to take notes throughout the Course. The Course in essense is a step-by-step analysis of the contents of an ECU firmware developed by a vehicle manufacturer to identify the ECU operation strategy. Based on the results of the analysis of the OEM ECU (Engine Control Unit), the participants of the Course will be able to independently peform remappings and recalibrations (modification of the maps contained in the firmware) up to 'STAGE 1' performance levels
