Stage 2 hardware, peace of mind and process

Stage 2 requirements

Stage 2 ready with exhaust and air filter

At Stage 2, the engine's breathing is freed up with hardware: the exhaust and air filter are upgraded, and the software is written to match that hardware. The target for this engine is 178 HP / 191 Nm.

  • Exhaust systemA slip-on or full exhaust system; the software is written for the exhaust fitted.
  • Air filterA high-flow sport air filter; the airbox inlet is modified if needed.
  • Datalog & fine-tuningAir/fuel ratio and ignition are logged during a road or off-road test; fine-tuning is done if needed.
  • Health checkIgnition, fuel system, clutch / CVT belt and cooling checked for this power level; the job takes ~4–8 hours (depending on parts fitted).

Included every time

Power with peace of mind

  • Original software backup — the factory software is read and archived before the job.
  • Reversal — the car can be returned to its original software whenever you ask.
  • Datalog check — ignition, air/fuel ratio and engine temperature are recorded and checked during a road or off-road test.
  • Vehicle-specific calibration — not an off-the-shelf file; tuned to the engine, hardware and fuel quality.
  • Pre-tune diagnostics — fault memory is read and engine health is checked before the software.
