APR ECU UPGRADE STAGES

Our new suite of MG1 ECU software comes after months of extensive research and development that is typically absent from the aftermarket. Our upgrade makes the engine more powerful and more exciting. We’ve extensively calibrated the system to work flawlessly on the track, while retaining safety routines to protect your engine in the most demanding scenarios. This was all made possible by our engineering team's pursuit of perfection. Development vehicles were outfitted with additional sensors, including turbo shaft speed sensors, thermocouples, transducers, and more, along with our high speed direct RAM logging equipment, to feed valuable data to the team for analysis. After thousands of hours of testing and tuning we created new calibrations that are fine tuned for several octanes and contain hundreds of map changes, with a vast array of safety features built in.

The APR Stage I ECU Upgrade is the first step towards making more power! This simple upgrade requires no engine hardware modifications, and produces 685-767 HP and 731-804 FT-LBS of torque depending on fuel grade. Gains as high as +140-227 AWHP and +141-236 AWFT-LBS of torque are available throughout the power band, depending on fuel grade and factory output, making the vehicle exceptionally quicker in all scenarios. For even more power, this stage is compatible with normal bolt-on hardware modifications.

 

APR Stage 1 is available for 91 AKI, 93 AKI, 100 AKI and 104 AKI in North America and 95 RON, 98 RON, 104 RON, and 108 RON in the rest of the world.

The APR Plus ECU Upgrade is the first step towards making more power, and it includes our limited powertrain warranty. This simple upgrade requires no engine hardware modifications, and produces 685 HP with 731 FT-LBS of torque. Gains as high as 140 AWHP and 141 AWFT-LBS of torque are available throughout the power band, making the vehicle exceptionally quicker in all scenarios.

 

The APR Plus ECU Upgrade matches the performance of our Stage 1 ECU Upgrade (91 octane). To get even more power, you can add any of our other Stage 1 compatible products and still be covered under the APR Plus warranty! If you're not interested in the APR Plus limited powertrain warranty, and want even more power, check out our other Stages.
