21 years ago the Founder of DKU Performance had a personal passion for high-performance cars as he was already specialising in building ‘Custom Stainless Steel Exhaust Systems’, at the age of 19 he bought his first Subaru Impreza WRX this then lead his enthusiasm to start his journey to specialising in Importing Japanese sports cars.
He travelled to Japan and realised he was in ‘petrol-head heaven’ and like a spoiled little boy he wanted everything. This drove him to then form a business relationship with his close friend who was a Japanese national. He went on to purchase a number of high-performance Grey Imports which enabled him to set up a showroom consisting of over 100 vehicles in stock which was based in the West Midlands soon enough he was alongside one of the leading importers of a Japanese sports car.
DKU Performance goal is to be the best in not only our maintenance and services of any vehicles but to offer customer service at the highest standards to all our customers. We also pride ourselves to design and custom build bespoke exhaust systems to cater for all our customers with their individual needs at the highest standard.
Using only the highest quality stainless steel, we design and install our tailor-made stainless steel exhaust pipes to suit individual customer specifications. We have countless years of experience when it comes to creating you a customised stainless steel exhaust. We use T304 tubes from 1” to 5” and all fabrication is carried out on site.
We are able to incorporate the latest technology to give each exhaust fitting the enhanced sound or look that you want. While you wait, we will help guide you through using mufflers/resonators to achieve the desired effect you are looking for.
Both aesthetics and performance are paramount to us at DKU Performance, we believe that one should not compromise the other, so we only employ engineers of the highest level of technical competency, and share the same passion for fine-tuning.
Understanding the technological requirements and performance output of each make and model of cars on the road, DKU Performance can fine-tune the Engine Control Unit (ECU) of each vehicle.
When sent out straight from the factory floor, manufacturers automatically ‘de-tune’ the engine by setting the software of the ECU to a default setting to accommodate the climate, laws, restrictions and varying qualities of fuel around the world.
DKU Performance has the technical experience to reprogram or rewrite the software. Using the latest equipment that connects to the serial (OBD) port of each make and model of car, DKU Performance will release the restricted torque and horses from your engine, and let it perform the way it was meant to.
Over time, the exhaust and engine parts of your car will get clogged up with dirt, grime and particulates which can hamper the performance of your car as well as increasing wear and tear on parts. One part that suffers especially from particulate build-up is the DPF.
A DPF (or Diesel Particulate Filter) is – you guessed it – a device in the exhaust system of diesel vehicles that filters particulates from the exhaust fumes. Designed to reduce emissions in line with European standards by filtering out soot and particulate matter from the exhaust gases as they leave the exhaust, your DPF can become clogged or inefficient over time.
