The capabilities of the Lada Priora were recognized by many domestic and foreign motorists. The car's engine runs quietly and smoothly, but has shortcomings that can be corrected by replacing the electronic control unit (ECU) software.
So, let's figure out how to do chip tuning of the Priora. But do not forget that if you thoughtlessly improve some engine performance, then others may worsen. Therefore, if you are not sure that you will cope well with the engine chip tuning procedure, consult with car service specialists.
How is the Lada Priora rechipped?
All actions to reflash the engine are performed on the electronic control unit (ECU). In this block, you can replace the standard parameters with the desired ones, for example, you can adjust the ignition timing settings, the volume of fuel in the cylinders, exhaust control, the level of toxicity of exhaust gases, increase traction and engine power, etc.
The process is carried out in two ways:
- Installing a new chip with a new program in the ECU.
- Changing the parameters of an existing ECU chip.
Equipment
To chip the ECU you will need:
- A laptop with a pre-installed program for reconfiguring the chip.
- Adapters, cords and adapters for connecting a laptop and a car's ECU.
- New program (firmware) and modules.
Tuning the Priora 21127 engine
The general design of the engine remains the same; all the principles that we used on the 126th engine are applied here. For a small increase in power, for fast movement around the city, let’s say, it’s enough to install an exhaust on a 51 mm pipe with a 4-2-1 spider, let’s leave our two-stage factory receiver, buy a 54 mm damper, this will give us about 115-120 hp. By adding the city ramparts of Stolnikov 8.9 phase 280, we will go to 100 in 9 seconds, approximately. These shafts will not particularly affect the low end, and with the new receiver they will not cause any inconvenience, besides, they are of high quality, durable, etc. You can install more evil Stolnikov 9.15 phase 316 shafts, but for them you need to bore the intake and exhaust channels to 31 mm/27 mm valves, remove the steps of the valve seats, replace the injectors with more efficient ones like BOSCH 431 360cc or 440cc with a reserve. This way we will achieve power of 150 hp.
What you need to know about chip tuning
Correct tuning of the Priora involves selecting a suitable program for flashing, which should best suit the vehicle's engine system. A program from another car is not suitable for flashing, since each model has its own program, which contains individual settings for a specific car.
Do-it-yourself ECU modernization, in case of an error, may not give positive results, but only worsen the existing performance of the car. And in some cases, an improvement will still appear, for example, increased power and faster acceleration, but the engine will suffer. Therefore, you should carefully read the information about the procedure for this type of modernization so as not to “damage” your car.
Recently, special systems for cars have appeared that allow you to select optimal programs for working with the engine. Such programs are convenient because you can change the engine settings at any time by switching it to sports mode or economy mode.
Reviews about chip tuning VAZ (LADA) Priora
Do you also have something to say?
The salary arrived and what did you do right away? Of course I got it! The car has become like another) It drives differently, more dynamically. The traction is very good from the bottom. Pickup from 3000 thousand/rev is instantaneous. And up to 3000 thousand/rpm it runs smoothly and pulls well. Consumption should decrease. But I haven't measured it yet. The cutoff was shifted to something like 7000. The catalyst was turned off. While the firmware is being rolled out. We sewed it with ADACT firmware for 95 gasoline. It is more dynamic than the 92 and the consumption should be even less))
I sewed a Priorica 16kl with a replacement ecu for January 7.2. This is where it got really cool. I took measurements at 9.6s and it was 11.2s. I went with a sports grant to the body and left her, that’s basically all. As for the specialist, I can say that he is a professional in his field. Anyone from Bryansk, guys, go to Alexander for firmware, you won’t regret it, it’s worth the money and you will enjoy further use.
The word “chip” has long been firmly established in the colloquial speech of our motorists. However, few people know what this process is in reality. Why is it called that, and is it worth doing it on your car? In particular, at Priora. Therefore, it is worth explaining this issue in detail. With a short excursion into the history of “injection” cars.
Is it necessary to perform chip tuning on gas cars?
Tuning the Priora engine using LPG has its own characteristics, especially if the car was converted from gasoline. The advance angle for gas and gasoline has different adjustment algorithms. Gas flashers shift the ignition timing at low speeds and detonation can occur on low-octane fuel during warm-up or when driving on a cold engine. A feature of the electronic control unit is that when detonation occurs, the ignition timing is adjusted to a low octane number very quickly, but when it increases, it is much slower.
Therefore, sometimes engines that have not undergone chip tuning, running on low-octane gasoline in difficult conditions when returning to gas, operate for some time in an unoptimized mode with low efficiency on gas due to late ignition and there is a possibility of valve overheating. Therefore, it becomes clear that upgrading the engine for LPG is simply mandatory.

Chip tuning of the Priora engine
For fun, you can play with the sports firmware, but there will be no obvious improvement; see how to properly increase the power below.
Priora engine tuning for the city
There are legends that the Priora’s engine produces 105, 110 and even 120 hp, and the power was underestimated to reduce taxes, various measurements were even taken in which the car produced similar power... what everyone decides to believe, let’s focus on the indicators declared by the manufacturer. So, how to increase the power of a Priora engine, how to charge it without resorting to anything special, for a small increase you need to let the engine breathe freely. We install a receiver, a 4-2-1 exhaust, a 54-56 mm throttle body, and we get about 120 hp, which is quite good for the city. Boosting the Priora engine will not be complete without sports camshafts, for example, STI-3 camshafts with the configuration described above will provide about 140 hp. and it will be fast, an excellent city motor. The refinement of the Priora engine goes further, sawn cylinder head, Stolnikov 9.15 316 shafts, light valves, 440cc injectors and your car easily produces more than 150-160 hp.
A little about firmware
If you still decide to upgrade the ECU yourself, use only high-quality firmware. According to reviews from car enthusiasts, Paulus firmware is a good option, as they “correctly” change the settings of the electronic unit. Moreover, they should be downloaded from official sites, and not from third parties. Because you can run into a fake and spoil the characteristics of the car.
Therefore, be extremely careful when choosing new software, since the cost of an error is very high and there is a risk of damaging your car with low-quality software.

Chip tuning Lada Priora
Chip tuning of Lada Priora is a change in the software (chip, firmware) of the electronic engine control unit to increase power, reduce fuel consumption, eliminate failures, and ensure stable operation of the engine control system.
Lada Priora cars with control units M73, M74, Bosch 7.9.7 and Bosch 17.9.7 are available for flashing. For tuning we use software from leading Russian developers: Paulus chip, ADACT, Ledokol.
The proposed chip tuning software is intended for use on ordinary (non-sports) cars without the goal of obtaining maximum power and torque, without reducing the service life of the units.
You'll get a well-balanced increase in power and torque not only at high rpm under full load, but also in the low and mid-range, without increasing emissions.
After installing the modified software, improved driving characteristics can satisfy even the most demanding car owners.
The firmware is focused on comfort in driving: elimination of factory software errors, elasticity, reliable starting at any temperature, no dips and twitching, freezing of speed, elimination of sluggish acceleration dynamics, excessive fuel consumption. When the air conditioner is turned on, the loss of engine power is significantly reduced.
In addition, it is possible to eliminate errors due to non-functioning oxygen sensors (lambda probe), remove the software catalytic converter (catalyst), and also reflash the Lada Priora to Euro 2 or Euro 0.
The appearance of error codes P0130, P0131, P0132, P0133, P0134 and other errors associated with a faulty lambda probe, catalyst errors P0420, P0421, 0422, P0423, P0124, P0430 can be eliminated forever with the help of reprogramming and without compromising the driving characteristics of components and units. In addition, for Lada Priora it is possible to reduce the temperature at which the cooling fan turns on and disable the standard immobilizer. The warranty for the operation of the modified software extends to the entire service life of the vehicle, that is, indefinitely. Working time 1 hour. For each car, a certificate is issued with a unique authentication code, which can be verified on the software developer’s website.
Features of Priora engine tuning
carrying out the guiding processes of the operating torques of the motor.
Its main tasks are to provide signals to devices responsible for the injection of fuel materials, as well as turbocharging and ignition systems. The computer receives such information from system sensors that record the speed, air flow and other indicators. This device contains a special chip that contains a microcircuit with programs for controlling the motor system. You can make various changes to it regarding operating parameters:
- amount of fuel in the cylinders;
- ignition timing marks;
- control over the level of toxicity of exhaust gases, etc.
The chip tuning process can be carried out in two ways:
- Removing the standard chip. In this case, the part is removed, reprogrammed and installed in its original place.
- Installing a new chip with a different program.
To improve the specific technical characteristics of the engine, there are several ways to refine it. For example, it is possible to increase the power of an atmospheric gasoline or turbocharged power unit to certain levels. The microcircuit also provides the car with economical characteristics, which significantly reduces fuel consumption.
