All 2.5L 5-Cylinder (07K) tunes
Perfect for owners looking to wake up the naturally aspirated 5-cylinder without making any hardware changes. Stage 1 is designed to deliver a noticeable improvement in performance while maintaining the smooth, refined characteristics of the factory engine. The tune increases power and torque throughout the rev range, with stronger low- and mid-range response, improved throttle response, and smoother, more consistent power delivery. The result is a more responsive engine with better pull through the rev range and a more engaging feel without sacrificing the drivability expected from a stock-hardware setup.
No modifications are required, making Stage 1 a straightforward upgrade for daily-driven vehicles that want more performance while retaining the factory hardware and overall character of the engine.
* The Crackle feature cannot be paired with the Stage 1 tune - Stage 1.5 is required (at minimum) for this option.

Required
Stage 1.5 is for owners who want to go a step beyond Stage 1 while keeping the setup relatively simple. This calibration is designed to work with an upgraded test pipe, allowing the naturally aspirated 5-cylinder to make better use of the improved exhaust flow.
The result is a stronger, more responsive engine with added power and torque, particularly as you move higher through the rev range. Throttle response is also improved, while keeping the smooth and predictable drivability that makes the car enjoyable on the street.
Stage 1.5 also gives you the option to add the Crackle feature.
93 Octane Fuel / 98 RON Minimum
Downpipe/Test Pipe Upgrade
Air Intake Upgrade
Recommended
This tune is designed for use with a more complete set of hardware upgrades and produces significantly increased power over stock. The upgraded intake manifold and downpipe/test pipe provide the additional airflow needed to support the higher output, while an upgraded air intake is recommended to complement the setup. 93 octane fuel / 98 RON is required, and automatic vehicles also require a TCU tune to properly support the increased torque output.
With the supporting hardware in place, Stage 2 takes the 07K well beyond the lower stages, with stronger power throughout the rev range and a more aggressive overall character. For those looking to get the most from a fully upgraded naturally aspirated setup, Stage 2 provides a substantial step up in power and performance.

TCU Tune (For Automatic Vehicles)
Intake Manifold Upgrade
Optimize your transmission's performance to work in conjunction with our ECU tunes. A TuneZilla TCU tune modifies the transmission's shift strategy to better match the increased power and torque produced by a tuned engine, improving how that power is delivered to the wheels.
By adjusting shift points and increasing shift speed, the transmission can keep the engine in a more useful part of the powerband and respond more quickly to changes in throttle input. Modified upshift and downshift RPM can also reduce unnecessary shifting and help keep the engine where it makes the most power, while increased torque limiters allow the transmission to accommodate the higher torque output of a tuned engine.
The result is a more responsive and predictable driving experience, with improved shift behavior and better coordination between the ECU and TCU tunes. Gear display activation also provides a useful indication of the current gear.
