About remapping

The Kia K3 accounts for 5 files in our catalogue, dominated by the 1.6i naturally aspirated petrol with a 1.6 CRDi diesel also present. It is a compact saloon, sold as the Cerato or Forte in some markets.

Stage 1 accounts for all 5 files — a completely clean profile with no maintenance work at all. The ECUs are ME17.9.1 and EDC17_C53.

Frequently asked questions

Which engine gains most?

The 1.6 CRDi diesel, since it is turbocharged. The naturally aspirated 1.6i gains considerably less.

Is it the same as the Cerato?

It is the same car sold under different names by market. Our experience with one applies directly to the other.

Is the work reversible?

Yes. We always keep the original ECU file, so the car can be returned to its factory configuration.

Data comes from our project history. Exact availability is confirmed when you request the file.
