Updated October 2026: what a DAMOS file contains, DAMOS vs A2L vs map pack, what to send us for a custom DAMOS, how to order and a short FAQ.
New: ready-made WinOLS map packs. For more than 15 000 ECU software versions we already have a WinOLS map pack together with the original file — every map of that software named and grouped (torque, boost, rail, injection, limiters). Find your HW or SW number in the map pack database and get the original file + map pack in one ZIP from €60. If your software version is not listed, order a custom DAMOS as described below.
AUTO-REMAP is a well-established global file-service provider, trusted by many tuning companies across Europe and beyond. With more than 15 years of experience in ECU file modification, we have built a reputation for quality, reliability and technical excellence. While our core business remains file-service for cars, trucks, agricultural machinery, motorcycles, boats and other vehicles, we also offer something that few other providers can — personalized creation and sale of DAMOS (map-pack / calibration map description) files for virtually any ECU software version and any vehicle type, upon customer request.

What is DAMOS — and why does it matter
In ECU tuning, a DAMOS file (or map-pack / calibration map description) represents a structured mapping of the raw binary inside the ECU firmware: it identifies where different calibration tables (fuel maps, turbo boost maps, ignition maps, NOx, AdBlue/DEF parameters, sensor thresholds, etc.) reside. With a proper DAMOS, a tuner or engineer can safely and accurately locate, interpret and modify those maps using tools such as editors or tuning software.
Without a correct DAMOS — or with a “generic” / wrongly structured one — tuning becomes risky: maps may be misinterpreted, parameters may shift, and the result can be malfunction, poor performance or even engine damage.
Thus, having a reliable DAMOS is a cornerstone for safe, precise, and effective ECU tuning — whether the goal is stage-tuning, removal or modification of AdBlue/DEF, EGR/DPF, exhaust flaps, throttle/swirl control, lambda-sensor logic, or advanced mapping for boosted engines, diesel, petrol, hybrids, etc.
What a DAMOS / Map Pack Contains
For every calibration a DAMOS describes:
- Name and description of the map, curve or single value (for example boost target, injection quantity limiter, torque limiter, DPF regeneration thresholds, DTC switches).
- Address of the data in the binary and its data type (8/16/32-bit, signed or unsigned, float, byte order).
- Axes — the X/Y breakpoints (rpm, load, pressure, temperature) with their own addresses and size.
- Factor, offset and unit so the editor shows real values (mbar, mg/stroke, °C, Nm) instead of raw numbers.
- Grouping by function, so a tuner finds the right maps in minutes instead of hours.
Example: original DAMOS for ACDelco E66 (Chevrolet Silverado 3.0L Duramax LM2, OS 12728650) in WinOLS — 74 447 named maps. More about this file on its solutions page.
DAMOS, A2L and Map Pack — What Is the Difference?
- A2L / DAMOS — the original calibration description made by the ECU supplier for one exact software. It is tied to that software: a different version moves addresses and a foreign A2L will point to the wrong data.
- Map pack — a set of maps prepared for a tuning editor such as WinOLS (for example a maps.kp file you import into your project). It can be built from an A2L or from manual analysis of the binary.
- Custom DAMOS from AUTO-REMAP — a description built for your exact ECU and software version, even when no original A2L exists for it.
Ready map pack or custom DAMOS? If your exact software is already in our WinOLS map pack database, the ready map pack with its original file is the fastest way — you download it right away. A custom DAMOS is the right choice when your version is not in the database, when you need the full description of the software, or for rare ECUs, trucks and machinery.
Why AUTO-REMAP’s DAMOS service stands out
✅ Custom DAMOS on demand — not “one DAMOS fits all”
- Many competitors simply offer one (or a few) pre-built DAMOS files per ECU software — and if those don’t match the structure of your software or ECU version, they are useless.
- AUTO-REMAP goes beyond that: we can create a completely custom DAMOS, tailored to your exact software version and ECU build, for almost any vehicle or equipment type (car, truck, motorcycle, agricultural, marine, etc.) you require.
- That means even for rare, heavily modified, or unusual ECUs — or older / uncommon firmware versions — we can produce a working DAMOS when others cannot. This flexibility is rare in the market.
🧑🔧 Expertise and human-driven solutions
- All our files — including custom DAMOS — are manually developed by experienced engineers, not auto-generated by scripts. Each DAMOS is carefully reviewed and tested.
- Our team consists of highly qualified engineers with many years of experience in ECU software analysis and tuning. This allows us to handle non-standard ECUs, complex software versions, and bespoke requests that mass-produced DAMOS packs ignore.
🌍 Wide vehicle & ECU coverage
- Whether you have a modern passenger car, heavy-duty truck, agricultural machinery, a motorcycle, or even a boat — we can handle it. Our service scope covers the full spectrum of transport and machinery.
- ECU families our engineers work with every day include Bosch EDC17, MD1 and MG1, GM/Delco E41, E66 and E90, Cummins CM2350 and CM2450, Continental SID and SIM3K, Denso, Delphi, TRW (Volvo/Mack/UD), Temic, Kefico and Transtron. You can check your exact ECU and software version in our solutions database.
- This makes AUTO-REMAP a one-stop partner for tuning houses, workshops, fleet operators, and individuals working with a variety of vehicles and engines.
💸 Transparent & flexible pricing + discount options
- A custom DAMOS costs from €300 and is usually ready in 1–3 hours. The exact price depends on ECU type, software version and complexity of the task; file modifications are priced individually too.
- For customers ordering multiple options or combining modifications (e.g., tuning + AdBlue removal + DPF/EGR delete, etc.), we offer discounts of 50–70% compared to standard pricing.
- Additionally, we provide a 14-day money-back guarantee (on your account / platform) in case any issues arise within the system — ensuring clients’ confidence and satisfaction.
🔧 Broad range of supported tuning & modification services
On top of DAMOS creation and the usual file-service, AUTO-REMAP offers a comprehensive set of tuning and ECU-modification options, including:
- AdBlue/DEF (SCR) removal / disablement
- DPF / FAP removal or bypass
- EGR / AGR removal or disablement
- NOx / emissions-sensor disablement

FAQ about DAMOS Files
What is a DAMOS file?
A DAMOS is a description of the calibration data inside ECU software: names, addresses, axes, factors and units of every map, curve and value. A tuning editor uses it to show readable maps instead of raw hex.
Is a DAMOS the same as an A2L file?
Practically yes — A2L is the standard format of the original calibration description. A map pack is a set of maps prepared for a tuning editor; it can be made from an A2L or by manual analysis of the software.
Can I buy a ready map pack instead of a custom DAMOS?
Yes. For more than 15 000 ECU software versions a WinOLS map pack is ready together with the original file: search by HW or SW number in the map pack database and buy both in one ZIP from €60. If your version is not there, we build a custom DAMOS for it.
Can I use a DAMOS from a different software version?
Usually not. Even small software updates move the maps, so a DAMOS from another version points to the wrong data. That is why we build a DAMOS for your exact software.
What do I need to send to order a custom DAMOS?
The original ECU read, ECU type with hardware and software numbers, the vehicle, and the list of maps you need. Upload it on fs.auto-remap.com.
How much does a custom DAMOS cost and how long does it take?
From €300, depending on the ECU and software. Most DAMOS files are ready in 1–3 hours after we receive the original read.
Which vehicles and ECUs do you cover?
Cars, trucks, agricultural and construction machinery, motorcycles and boats — Bosch, Delco, Cummins, Continental, Denso, Delphi, TRW, Temic, Kefico, Transtron and more. Check your ECU in the solutions database.
