Tuning / Modified - Cars

Tuning or modifying vehicles is a hobby of many drivers to improve their engine, external appearance and internal appearance of their vehicle. Vehicles leave the factory fitted with standard model parts. Tuning allows for customization of the characteristics of the vehicle to the preferences of its owner.

For example, they can be altered to provide better fuel economy to deliver more power at high engine speeds. Also, ride comfort can be sacrificed at the expense of good and safe governance. Tuning in cars is associated with auto racing. Tuning cars can be a pleasurable hobby for car owners allowing them to get exactly what they desire from their vehicles.

Another major aspect of auto tuning includes, as mentioned above, changing the exterior of the car. This includes changing the aerodynamic characteristics of the vehicle via side skirts, front and rear bumpers, adding spoilers, splitters, air vents, wheels and many other items. The essence of the tuning a car is trying to extract as much performance or appearance of high performance by adding, changing or outright replacing parts.

This largely involves changing the engine management system of the vehicle to increase output, often requiring additional changes including: solid - sport suspension, wider tires, better brakes, improved steering and transmission modifications, and much more.

These specific changes, such as low tire suspension (height units) and adding spoilers, contribute to changing the overall look of the car. As a result, there are now many different styles of visual tuning, in which the modification of the vehicle looks much different in many ways.
