Tuning your US truck isn’t just about adding power. It’s about making it perform smarter where it counts and handle the demands of your day-to-day driving. At Willy’s, we dive into the nitty-gritty of your truck’s ECU, fine-tuning it with precision to unlock a range of performance benefits and more:

Effortless towing power

We increase torque and refine gear shifts so your truck pulls heavier loads effortlessly. Hills, trailers and tough terrain become easier to handle without the engine straining.

Better fuel economy

We fine-tune air-fuel ratios and engine timing to make your truck more efficient. You’ll cover more ground with fewer stops at the pump, saving you money every trip.

Smoother, quicker acceleration

By adjusting throttle response and fuel mapping, we make your truck more responsive off the line. That means quicker takeoffs and smoother gear changes for a more enjoyable drive.

Reliable performance in Australian conditions

US trucks are built for different conditions, so we modify the ECU to optimise performance for Australian heat, challenging landscapes, and heavy-duty hauling. This gives you reliable performance wherever the road takes you.

Willys workshop Professional, honest, and knows his stuff"

Took my truck mercedes actros MP5 to get things resolved.

Couldn't be happier with the service.
They went above and beyond, spent extra time
making sure everything was perfect before
handing it back. You can tell the team at willys workshop sunshine, really cares
about doing things properly, not rushing it
out the door.

Communication was great the whole way
through, explained what he was doing and
kept me updated. Truck runs smoother and
stronger than ever - drives like a
completely different machine.

If you want someone who actually
understands modern trucks inside and out,
this is the guy. Hard to find this level of
dedication.
Thanks to the team at willys workshop and a special thanks to Anthony, your a bloody legend mate.

We were both very impressed with the thorough diagnostic approach (not just with diagnostic equipment) but with searching physically ,to resolve the difficult problems with our vehicle, that had been looked at by other mechanics but unresolved.
We very much appreciate the effort of Willy and Doug and their expertise.

FAQs

Got questions about logbook servicing? Our FAQ’s have the answers. We’ll break it down and give you the full picture on how regular servicing keeps your diesel running smooth, reliable, and in top condition.

What’s included in a custom tune for my US truck?

Our custom tuning adjusts key ECU parameters like fuel injection timing, boost pressure, throttle response, and torque management. Whether you want more power, improved towing capability, or better fuel efficiency, we fine-tune your truck to match your driving style.

How does multi-mapping work, and why is it useful?

Multi-mapping allows you to switch between different performance modes on the fly. Need extra torque for towing? Better fuel economy for long hauls? Maximum power for performance? With multi-mapping, you can adapt your truck’s tuning to different driving conditions with the push of a button, giving you ultimate flexibility without needing a retune.

Will tuning affect my truck’s reliability?

Not with us. Our expert tuning optimises performance without overloading the engine or drivetrain. Unlike aggressive, one-size-fits-all tunes that push components too hard, we focus on balanced tuning that enhances power and efficiency while keeping your truck running smoothly for the long haul.

Do I need to swap out my ECU for tuning?

No. Unlike other workshops that require costly ECU swaps, we’ve cracked the encryption on 2022+ models, allowing us to tune your truck directly through the factory ECU. This means no unnecessary hardware changes. Just pure software optimisation for better performance.

How long does the tuning process take?

Most tunes are completed in just a few hours. We start with a full diagnostic check, apply the custom tuning adjustments, and then test everything to make sure your truck performs exactly as expected.
