Stage 2 tuning takes your vehicle’s performance to the next level by combining advanced ECU remapping with essential hardware upgrades. Unlike Stage 1, which works within the limits of your factory setup, Stage 2 tuning optimises your car’s power output and efficiency by allowing greater airflow, improved cooling, and enhanced exhaust performance.
At 1STARTS, our certified technicians perform Stage 2 upgrades using industry-leading equipment and genuine, high-quality components. This stage typically includes the installation of a high-flow exhaust system, performance air intake, upgraded intercooler, and in some cases, stronger clutch or fuel system components. Once the hardware is fitted, we custom-tune your ECU to perfectly match the new modifications, ensuring seamless integration and maximum performance.
The result is a noticeable increase in horsepower and torque, sharper throttle response, and faster turbo spool times. Drivers experience more dynamic acceleration and a sportier sound, giving the car a truly exhilarating feel on the road. Despite the power boost, our Stage 2 tuning maintains a strong focus on reliability and drivability — we never push your engine beyond safe operational limits.
At 1STARTS, we believe in precision, not guesswork. Every tuning session begins with a full diagnostic inspection to ensure your vehicle is in excellent condition before any upgrades are applied. After tuning, we perform thorough testing to confirm optimal performance and safety.
Stage 2 tuning is ideal for drivers who have already completed Stage 1 or are ready for a more serious performance enhancement. It’s suitable for enthusiasts who want stronger mid-range power, improved torque delivery, and enhanced engine responsiveness for both street and spirited driving.
We begin by thoroughly inspecting your vehicle using advanced diagnostics to precisely pinpoint any mechanical or electrical issues.
Once the issue is identified, we develop a clear repair plan and provide you with details on the steps, cost, and timeline, keeping you fully informed.
Our expert mechanics get to work with high-quality tools and parts, ensuring every repair is carried out with precision and care.
After a final quality check, we hand over your fully repaired vehicle—safe, reliable, and ready to hit the road.
