I recently had my BT-50 fully modified through EliteTune and couldn’t be happier with the result. During my visit, they handled everything — exhaust, tune, lift kit, plus a full tyre and rim package — all in one go, which made the whole process super convenient.The quality of the work is excellent, and the difference in performance and overall look of the vehicle is unreal. You can tell they take pride in what they do and pay attention to the details.The crew are also very good — easy to deal with, knowledgeable, and happy to answer any questions along the way. They made the whole experience smooth from start to finish.Highly recommend EliteTune to anyone looking to upgrade their vehicle. I’ll definitely be sending people their way.

Got my 80 Series tuned and serviced by Elite Tune and honestly couldn’t be happier. The difference is night and day. throttle response is way sharper, pulls harder through the rev range, and just feels way more alive to drive. It used to feel a bit sluggish, especially towing or going up hills, but now it handles it effortlessly.They really know their stuff too. Rickey was so polite and was to understand as he took the time to explain everything properly and made sure the tune suited how I actually use the car not just some generic setup which other shops do. You can tell they care about doing it right, not just rushing jobs through.Surprisingly it came with a bonus too as my fuel economy even improved a bit and the motor just runs smoother overall. Easily one of the best mods I’ve done to the 80.If you’re thinking about getting a tune, don’t even hesitate. Elite Tune absolutely delivered if i could give other 5 stars i would!

- Cooler, more efficient operation due to optimised boost control, fuelling, and airflow management
- Consistent performance under load, particularly when running close to GVM or towing heavy loads
- Reduced DPF regens and smoother part-throttle behaviour, especially for 1GD models
All performance gains are verified on our Mainline AWD3600 dyno and are tailored specifically to your vehicle’s engine, load conditions, tyres, accessories, and driving style.
Before & After Our Ford Ranger Tune
Our Ford Ranger Tuning Process
- Initial Inspection and Diagnostics: We begin with a comprehensive inspection, using advanced diagnostics to check for fault codes, injector balance, boost leaks, and turbo health. This ensures that your Ford is in optimal condition before tuning.
- Baseline Dyno Run: We perform a baseline dyno test on our Mainline AWD3600 to measure your vehicle’s current power, torque, AFRs (Air-Fuel Ratios), boost levels, and EGTs (Exhaust Gas Temperatures). This step allows us to determine areas for improvement.
- Custom ECU Calibration: Using the baseline data, we create a custom ECU remap tailored to your vehicle’s specifications. This includes adjustments to fueling, boost control, throttle mapping, and torque limits, all designed to enhance performance while maintaining vehicle safety and reliability.
- Live Load Testing on the Dyno: Our dyno allows us to simulate real-world driving conditions, testing the vehicle under various load conditions to ensure that the tune is both safe and effective. We monitor key metrics such as EGTs, boost, and fuel delivery to refine the tune further.
- Final Verification and Road Testing: After refining the tune on the dyno, we conduct extensive road testing to evaluate throttle response, drivability, turbo spool, and power delivery under real-world conditions. Once we’re satisfied with the performance, we provide a detailed report and sign off on the vehicle.
Other Ford Ranger Performance Upgrades
Along with tuning, we provide essential engine performance services to keep your Ranger strong and dependable. Regular maintenance protects torque, response and overall reliability, particularly for high-kilometre trade, courier and fleet vans.
Every service is completed in-house at our Welshpool workshop using professional diagnostic equipment and quality parts.
Carbon Cleaning
Carbon build-up in the intake and turbo system can lead to performance degradation and increased fuel consumption. Our carbon cleaning service removes carbon deposits from key engine components, improving power delivery and fuel efficiency.
DPF Replacement
A blocked diesel particulate filter (DPF) can choke engine output and raise exhaust temperatures. We provide professional DPF cleaning and replacement to restore flow, protect the turbo, and keep your vehicle emissions-compliant.
Catch Can Installation
Installing a catch can prevents oil vapour and sludge from entering the intake system, reducing carbon build-up and extending turbo and intercooler life.
Long-Range Fuel Tanks
Upgrading to a long-range tank increases your vehicle’s endurance between refuels, ideal for outback touring and remote worksites. We fit quality Australian-made tanks that integrate seamlessly with factory fuel systems.

FAQs
What is Ford Ranger tuning?
Ford Ranger tuning involves custom ECU remapping to optimise the performance of your vehicle. This process adjusts the engine’s settings to improve key areas such as power, torque, throttle response, and fuel efficiency. Whether you’re looking for enhanced towing capacity, better off-road performance, or smoother city driving, our Ford Ranger tuning services unlock your vehicle’s full potential. The tuning process is tailored to your specific Ranger model and engine type, ensuring optimal results for your driving needs.
Can you tune a Ford Ranger?
Yes, we offer professional Ford Ranger tuning for all models, including the PX, Next Gen Ranger, and their various engine types. Our ECU remapping services are designed to maximise your Ranger’s power, efficiency, and drivability.
How much does a Ford Ranger tune cost?
Dyno tunes for the Ford Ranger start from $1,600 (incl. GST). The price may vary depending on the model and any additional diagnostics or custom requirements.
How long does a tune take?
A Ford Ranger tune typically takes 3–5 hours, which includes a health check, baseline dyno run, custom ECU remapping, load testing, and a final road test to verify performance.
Ford Ranger chip tuning vs Ford Ranger ECU tune?
While Ford Ranger chip tuning can be a cheaper alternative, it’s not as effective as Ford Ranger ECU remapping. Chip tuning simply modifies the signals between the ECU and engine, which can often lead to unstable performance. ECU remapping offers more control and precision, allowing for a fully customised tune that enhances power, torque, and fuel efficiency. ECU remapping is the best choice for long-term reliability and performance.
Which engine types can you tune in the Ford Ranger?
At Elite Tune, we specialise in custom ECU remapping for a range of Ford Ranger engine types, including:
- 2.2L TDCi Tuning (PX1, PX2, PX3)
- 3.2L TDCi Tuning (PX1, PX2, PX3)
- 2.0L Bi-Turbo Tuning (Next Gen Ranger)
- 3.0L V6 Tuning (Next Gen Ranger)
Each engine is tailored to your specific needs, whether you’re looking to enhance towing performance, off-road capabilities, or everyday driving efficiency.
Will I use more fuel after tuning?
Most customers see similar or slightly better fuel economy when driving normally, as the engine operates more efficiently under load. However, heavy-footed driving may increase consumption.
Will tuning void my Ford warranty?
If your Ford Ranger is still under a new-car warranty, an ECU remap can affect the manufacturer’s powertrain warranty. We are upfront about this and can discuss warranty-safe tuning options where possible, ensuring minimal impact on your warranty.
Is tuning safe for towing and heavy loads?
Yes! Our Ford Ranger tunes are specifically designed for real-world towing and GVM work. We focus on enhancing low- and mid-range torque while keeping EGTs, boost, and rail pressure within safe limits, ensuring optimal performance while towing heavy loads.
What qualifications do our mechanics have?
Our team at Elite Tune, backed by over two decades of expertise in automotive engineering and performance tuning, specialises in 4WDs. This extensive experience ensures we deliver top-tier vehicle tuning and maintenance services.
What is our privacy policy?

Do we have a warranty?
Your rights as a consumer are protected by automatic guarantees when you use our services, which cover due care and skill, fitness for purpose, and timely completion. These are in addition to any warranties we offer, ensuring you can still seek remedies like repair, replacement, refund, or cancellation if standards are not met, even after the warranty period.
