Stage 1 – The Best Bang for Your Buck

Stage 1 delivers the most noticeable improvement for the least cost — a real transformation without changing any factory hardware. Power increases from 163 hp to 190 hp and torque from 360 Nm to 420 Nm, resulting in smoother delivery, stronger mid-range pull, and improved towing performance.

• Measured Gains: +27 hp / +60 Nm (163 → 190 hp, 360 → 420 Nm)
• Hardware: No modifications required
• Benefits: Sharper throttle, smoother drivability, safer overtaking power
• Recommended Upgrades: While not required, an intercooler, performance intake, and cat-back exhaust will enhance cooling and airflow, unlocking even better performance.

Stage 1 is the biggest bang-for-your-buck upgrade — reliable, efficient, and ideal for daily driving or towing applications.

Stage 2 – Performance Hardware Upgrade

Stage 2 builds on Stage 1 and is designed for vehicles fitted with key supporting modifications. With improved airflow and cooling, the calibration sustains power under load and reduces exhaust gas temperatures for tough Australian conditions.

• Indicative Gains: ~+40 hp / +90 Nm (approx. 203 hp, 450 Nm), depending on hardware
• Minimum Requirements: Full exhaust system, upgraded intake, and improved intercooler/cooling system
• Benefits: Increased torque and mid-range response, reduced EGTs, and more efficient airflow for prolonged high-load performance
• Custom Calibration: Individually adjusted to suit your hardware setup for the optimal balance between power and reliability

Stage 3 – Maximum Performance

Stage 3 is designed for full performance builds where every supporting system has been upgraded. It delivers significant gains in both power and torque through advanced fuelling and charge-air strategies.

• Indicative Gains: ~+60 hp / +130 Nm (approx. 223 hp, 490 Nm), depending on hardware
• Minimum Requirements: All Stage 2 upgrades plus fuel system enhancements and a turbocharger upgrade
• Purpose: Built for high-performance or competition/off-road use where response and output are prioritized
• Custom Tuning: Tailored calibration for each build to ensure safe operation under extreme conditions
