Cómo se lee
Commonly read through the OBD port by mainstream tools, with bench as the fallback. Check your tool’s vehicle list for your exact car before planning the session.
Qué cubren Stage 1 y Stage 1+
Stage 1 on this car is a documented recalibration of the factory maps for a mechanically standard example — built from your own original file and approved by a human tuner before you can download it.
Stage 1+ is the declared-setup version: your fuel and supporting hardware are written into a per-ECU contract together with the expected gains for that combination. The stage guide walks through choosing between them.
