Official EVC WinOLS Training FAQs
Why choose official EVC training in WinOLS?
The official EVC WinOLS training follows a standard EVC curriculum – a standard that is followed worldwide. This means that the knowledge and skillset you develop on the course is understood and recognised globally, wherever you are tuning or wherever you are seeking work or doing business.
What hardware do I need for WinOLS?
WinOLS is software for editing. You still need hardware like KESS3, Autotuner or Flex to read the ECU. VIEZU training will show you how to bridge that gap across all vehicle types.
Is there support after the course?
Yes, there is support after you complete your tuning courses. As the educational and training division of a world-leading tuning company, the VIEZU Technical Academy provides ongoing technical backup and map pack support. You join a global community of tuning professionals. VIEZU regularly hosts free webinars, and offers free online training and demonstrations. Follow our social media to keep up-to-date.
How do I choose the right tuning path?
If you are unsure where to start, you can read our guides on how to choose your tuning training path or the differences between online vs in-person tuning training.
Is WinOLS hard to learn?
While WinOLS looks intimidating at first due to the raw hexadecimal data, it offers unparalleled control. VIEZU’s EVC WinOLS training flattens the learning curve by teaching you pattern recognition, map identification and axis scaling. With VIEZU’s Simon White’s tried-and-tested training methodology, even beginners can start building safe and effective vehicle tuning files.
What is the difference between WinOLS and Autotuner?
Think of Autotuner as the hardware tool used to read and write the ECU. WinOLS is the software where the actual calibration and file modification happen. To be a true Master Tuner, you typically use Autotuner or another tuning tool such as the Magic Motorsport FLEX or the KESS3, to extract the file. VIEZU’s EVC WinOLS training enables you to edit and create the tuning file correctly.
How much does WinOLS training cost?
At Remap101 we offer flexible training pathways. Our EVC electronic tuning training includes everything from entry level online modules starting from £75 to comprehensive 3-day in-person workshops. You can view the full range of options and prices on our Remap101 website.
What is the alternative to WinOLS?
While there are other map editing suites available, such as StageX and ECM Titanium, EVC WinOLS offers deep access to ECU data. It is possible to integrate different platforms to develop and improve your workflows; for example, you can read about the benefits of using WinOLS and StageX together on our blog.
A key point to consider is that WinOLS remains the industry leader because it offers unrestricted control. While the learning curve can be steeper compared to software that relies on AI and automated drivers, the primary advantage of mastering WinOLS is the ability to manually define maps that other platforms cannot see.
