We have two options of remap available for the Volvo 1.6 8V engine fitted with the Siemens SID807 control system. One keeps the DPF system intact, and the other is designed to run with a performance exhaust system. We’ve even got a stage 2 and stage 3 hybrid remap available for the SID807 ECU system now.
The Volvo SID807 and SID807EVO ECUs can easily be programmed over OBD using DimSport MyGenius.

Programming Methods – OBD2 or bench programming
We recommend to use only genuine tuning tools to program the Siemens SID807 and SID807EVO ECUs over OBD. Dimsport MyGenius is able to do this over OBD by taking a virtual read and then offers full programming capabilities with the option to change maps whenever you choose. We have also tested the use of Kess with a virtual read and this can also successfully write the Ford SID807 ECU over OBD. Always add battery support to the vehicle to prevent a voltage drop during programming.
Recommended programming method:
Program over OBD using the Dimsport MyGenius standalone tool
The Dimsport MyGenius tool is the safest, easiest and most reliable way to program your ECU from home. Simply connect to the OBD port and let the tool do the work, no need to remove your ECU or bench program for most ECU types. For more information have a read here
Programming via OBD Volvo SID807EVO
- Obtain a suitable programming tool; we recommend to use Dimsport MyGenius, you can also use Kess V2.
- Install the tool to a reliable laptop.
- Connect to the OBD port of your car, make sure you have backup chargers to the vehicle battery and the laptop battery.
- ID the ECU and then take a read of the ECUs flash memory.
- Email the software to remap@hdi-tuning.co.uk along with a description of the remap you require.
- Send payment through our webshop.
- We will modify the software and send back to you. This normally takes less than 2 to 3 hours during working days.
- Using the same tool, ID then write to the ECU. This will overwrite the ECUs flash memory, it’s important not to interrupt the process. If you encounter any problems we can fix the ECU for you so there’s absolutely nothing to worry about.
- Let your engine warm up and then take the car for a spin, enjoy the extra power!
Bench Programming via KTAG
- Order a suitable tool such as Kess KTAG.
- Install the tool to a reliable laptop.
- The ECU must be removed from the vehicle, and then the lid can be carefully pried open and removed. The best way to do this is with 1 small flat head screw driver and one large. Carefully pry open the tabs around the ECU then gently get the larger screw driver and keep it inline with the metal support to the side. With a heat gun it will help soften the glue and the lid will come away more easily.
- Connect necessary pins to ECU connector plug.
- Connect boot pins and CNF to correct location. There are two processor types available on the SID807/SID807EVO ECU; TC1796 (2MB internal flash, 2MB external flash) and TC1797 (4MB Internal flash).
- ID the ECU.
- Take a read of all memories present.
- Email the software to remap@hdi-tuning.co.uk along with a description of the remap you require.
- Send payment through our webshop.
- We will modify the software and send back to you. This normally takes less than 2 to 3 hours during work days.
- Using the same tool, ID then write to the ECU. This will overwrite the ECUs memory, it’s important not to interrupt the process. If you encounter any problems we can fix the ECU for you so there’s absolutely nothing to worry about, if you made a backup of all memories you’re extra safe in the event that something were to go wrong.
- Straighten the lid on the ECU and seal with a little silicone.
- Refit the ECU and start the engine.
- Let your engine warm up and then take the car for a spin, enjoy the extra power!
