At TuneZilla, we strive for an OEM level of drivability and reliability. Our team of Calibrators from around the world painstakingly work to deliver repeatable performance on all of our base maps. One of the major differences between our tunes and most of our competitors tunes is our linear OEM like throttle response. Where some software tuners increase throttle response to mask the actual output of their tunes by giving a very peaky feeling under acceleration, our tunes are designed to make the most usable and consistent power curve possible to maintain a strong pull without a heavy fall off midway through the power band. All while generating peak power as early as possible in the RPM range. Most off the shelf tunes advertise an attractive peak power figure, but suffer from a sudden drop in torque and a lower torque curve throughout the remainder of the RPM range.

At TuneZilla, we strive for an OEM level of drivability and reliability. Our team of Calibrators from around the world painstakingly work to deliver repeatable performance on all of our base maps. One of the major differences between our tunes and most of our competitor's tunes is our linear OEM like throttle response. Where some software tuners increase throttle response to mask the actual output of their tunes by giving a very peaky feeling under acceleration, our tunes are designed to make the most usable and consistent power curve possible to maintain a strong pull without a heavy fall off midway through the power band. All while generating peak power as early as possible in the RPM range. Most off the shelf tunes advertise an attractive peak power figure, but suffer from a sudden drop in torque and a lower torque curve throughout the remainder of the RPM range.
This Stage 3 IS38 tune is optimized to use the stock fuel system. 93 Octane is required.
Stage 3 Tunes are available on InstaTune as Off-The-Shelf base map files. In most cases, these files will work as intended, but due to variations in local fuel, hardware discrepancies, and vehicle condition, data logging may be required to ensure the tune is working as intended. If you do not have access to the required fuel specified on InstaTune, you may request a tune revision for your local available fuel. This may also require data logging to ensure correct adjustments are made to your tune.
Data logging is recommended (and in some cases may be required) to ensure customer satisfaction and engine longevity. Our goal is to provide you with the best tuning solution for your hardware setup.
