Car remapping near Leek
Samuel Gunnell, lead tuner at Manchester Dyno Centre. Ten-plus years of professional experience. Every job handled personally in Eccles, Manchester.
The tuner
Samuel Gunnell has been remapping professionally for over ten years. He is the lead tuner at Manchester Dyno Centre, based out of a 6,000 sq ft workshop in Eccles, Manchester, and his reputation for tuning file quality extends well beyond the North West. His work is recognised internationally in the performance tuning community, he is not a local operator building a local profile. He is a specialist at the top of his trade, operating from a facility that is worth the journey.
For drivers making the trip from Leek, that distinction matters. Every job at Manchester Dyno Centre is handled personally by Samuel. There is no junior doing the baseline runs, no generic file loaded while he watches from the office. He reads the ECU, develops the calibration, monitors fuelling, boost pressure, ignition timing and knock events in real time on the 4-Wheel-Drive Bapro dynamometer, and refines the map on the rollers until the data confirms it is right. You leave with documented power figures, before and after, measured on the same day.
That level of personal involvement is not common in this trade.
Why Manchester Dyno Centre
In-house 4WD dyno. The Bapro dynamometer at the Eccles facility is owned and operated by Manchester Dyno Centre. It is the working tool for every job, not shared, not rented, not sourced from another facility for specific sessions.
Professional-grade hardware. Kess3 and CMD tooling covers both OBD port access and bench work for a wide range of ECU and TCU platforms. Not clone devices, not compromised hardware.
The 117Speed name. Manchester Dyno Centre is powered by 117Speed, the most decorated remapping business in Manchester. The track record behind that name is what draws drivers from across the Midlands and the North West.
