Alientech ECM or EVC WinOls Car Tuning Software?
What car tuning software should I start out with, this is probably the most common question we get asked. We organised some information and videos below for you and, hopefully, these videos will help you understand some of the distinctions facing deciding to have either piece of software.
There are two main options for general tuning and remapping:
1. Alientech ECM Titanium
Alientech ECM Titanium is easy to use, cost effective and had free map packs and drivers. With Alientech ECM Titanium you can only change what has been decoded for you – it’s a very good place to start though, which makes it a good place to start. This is £995* with any master tool purchase (yearly licence £500). *if linked to a new Master within license

2. EVC WinOLS
EVC WinOLS is the program that professional tuners use and it needs professional training and set up to use it!
EVC WinOLS does not decode the files for you, but it does provide free access for you to do this yourself. With access to all file areas making it more sophisticated to use. You can buy decoded files from other users, which helps a lot when you are new to using WinOLS.
There is of course a cost of this and risk, many tuners will move onto WinOLS after learning the basics on something like ECM, price is £995* and there is no licence fee.

Closing thoughts
Both ECM and WinOLS car tuning software are high-end and extremely good to use, and you can’t really make a mistake. Most tuners ultimately end up running several different software’s and each has their own strengths – both ECM and WinOLS will perform and get you great results.
My honest advice – if you have not written any files before and you only want one software at this time – start out with ECM. The training is more cost-effective and we can have you writing files in just a few days.
If you know you want to really get into modified cars, and you have a dyno – WinOLS may be best for you, but be ready to invest a bit more on your training.
You can book a demonstration of each software with one of our experienced File Writers or visit us for a demonstration before you make up your mind. If you can’t make it to us, don’t worry, we can meet you online to explore your tuning needs.
VIEZU offer both in-class vehicle tuning training and online vehicle tuning training courses for both the Alientech ECM software and EVC WinOLS tuning software, and well as most other car and commercial vehicle tuning software available.
