Tuning
Torque where you need it. Power when you want it.
Desert Sands Mechanical offers tuning solutions for diesel vehicles and machines. We use an in-house dynamometer to custom-tune 4x4s and rear-wheel-drive vehicles, with guaranteed work, plus specialised calibrations for trucks, earthmoving and agricultural equipment tailored to how they actually work.
What we tune
Whether it’s a weekend tourer that needs to tow, a fleet truck chasing fuel economy, or a stock earthmover working harder than it was shipped to, we build the calibration around the job.
- 4WD engine & transmission tunes
- Truck performance & economy tunes
- Earthmoving plant & equipment tuning
- Emission control solutions (off-road / racing use only)
Calibrated solutions, guaranteed by data
Live dyno tuning with real-time monitoring for passenger and 4x4 vehicles, and rigorously tested, pre-validated calibration data for heavy applications. We rule out the guess work.
Tuned for work. Ready for play.
Low-end torque, improved fuel economy, sharper throttle response and transmission refinement, built for heavy hauling, agricultural duty and recreational off-road.
Emissions control – off-road / racing use only
Specialised emissions strategies for off-road, agricultural and motorsport applications on non-road-registered machinery, to address SCR derates, plugged DPFs and EGR issues.
Book your vehicle in for a tune
