Is tuning my Ford Focus helpful?
My friend said tuning his Ford improved its performance and is trying to convince me to do the same. I’ve heard bad things about tuning, however. Why should I tune a Ford Focus?

You can tune your Ford Focus by remapping its ECU (electronic control unit) to match your needs. If you don’t know how to do this, don’t try it yourself—let an expert help you. You’ll be happier with the results.
Your Ford’s current modifications are focused on safety and do not take advantage of your car’s potential power. Tuning a vehicle can increase its performance, upgrade its fuel efficiency, up its horsepower, and more—it all depends on your wants and what you can do in the ECU.
However, bad tuning can seriously damage your car, leading to increased wear and other issues. On top of that, it is illegal in some states and may void your warranty.
