Thanks for commenting on this. I was also sceptical that software tuning without any other modifications would not work, however, I spoke with some other guys and also did some research on Stage1, is applicable on stock engines without any hardware modifications. I am not expecting wonders from the 28bhp and is not the reason I am getting it done. I just craving for a more response from the car. I know when I shift to the S gear response is great but I just don't like how the rpms stays up especially when slowing down to the traffic lights. The promised torque change and little remap tweaking should do the job.
Stage 2 requires decat, filters, exhaust and all other sort of parts to be replaced what I am not bothered to go for. I prefer to keep everything OEM and stock on my car. £145 is not killer to give a go. Cars performance going to be scanned before and after to see the changes tool to be used is Alientech Kess v2.
