ECU question

Which software upgrade do you recommend? Also, if upgrading, does the sport mode become non effective?

I think EVOMS has the most hp/tq gain, but GIAC and Softronic have more tuning options

When the ECU is upgraded, if pushing the Sport mode button change the performance other than the extra boost? Now when I hit the Sport button, the car seems more responsive. I am just wondering if an ECU upgrade makes the car drive as if it were always in sport mode.

Correct me if i'm wrong, but the GIAC tune works with sport-mode, so if you have it on, the tune is working..

I recommend Protomotive

U can choose between going with high boost even if the car on non-SC mode or keep it 1.0bar on non-SC mode and 1.45bar on SC mode

We made some before and after tests..take a look

Just make sure they do the ecu programming 1:1 cut right for your car with performance test on the four-wheel chassis dynamometers with a diagram afterwards..

Everyone can write super numbers on paper... in the end it must be done well..
