First sign-in
Use the same account you have on tuning-database.co.uk. INSTATuner does not maintain a separate password — sign-in goes through the upstream identity provider. There is no separate "register" flow here.
On your first sign-in from a new browser, we email you a confirmation link. Until you click it, sensitive actions (downloads, editor mutations) stay locked. The link expires in 15 minutes — sign in again to receive a fresh one.
Drop your first BIN
From the dashboard, drag your original ECU file into the drop zone or click to browse. Accepted formats: .bin, .ori, .hex, .frf, .sgo, .pak, .dat, .mod. Maximum 64 MB.
We hash the file locally, run an ECU identification pass, then race three lookups against the file library:
- SHA-256 hash — exact match if your file is already in the library.
- Hardware + software number — extracted from the binary header.
- Free-text fallback — vehicle-name typeahead under the drop zone.
Read the result
A green card means we found a published Stage 1, 2 or 3 for your ECU. Click through to the file detail page — you'll see stock + tuned power figures from the Gains API and an animated dyno overlay.
An amber "no match yet" card means the binary is stored safely for review. Our library grows daily — check back, or use the editor to map it manually.
