The upgrades dramatically increase horsepower and torque, making for an exceptionally quicker and more exciting vehicle. This is made possible through APR's optimization of the factory engine management system to take full advantage of the engine's capabilities, without needing any end user adjustment. The ECU Upgrades are available with various features and supported octane levels and each stage is compatible with most typical bolt-on modifications. The software is installed to the vehicle's factory ECU through the OBD-II port once the ECU is unlocked, resulting in a clean and headache-free install. Furthermore, for those looking for tuning with a limited powertrain warranty, APR Plus has you covered!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAPR's new suite of MG1 ECU software comes after months of extensive research and development that is typically absent from the aftermarket. This upgrade makes the engine more powerful and more exciting. They'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 they 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 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 112 HP and 145 FT-LBS of torque are available throughout the power band, making the vehicle exceptionally quicker in all scenarios.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 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!
