Stage 1 ECU/ECM Tuning Service – FixECM
Unlock Power • Improve Response • Enhance Driving Experience
What Is Stage 1 Tuning?
Stage 1 tuning is a software-only ECU/ECM remap designed to safely increase your engine’s power and torque without requiring any mechanical upgrades.
This upgrade focuses on optimizing factory parameters such as:
Boost pressure
Ignition timing
Fuel delivery
Throttle response
Torque limits
Air/fuel ratios
Speed limiter & rev limiter adjustments
Manufacturers leave a large amount of “hidden power” inside the ECU for reliability margins, emissions limits, and global market conditions.
Stage 1 tuning safely unlocks this potential.
What Is an ECU/ECM Remap?
An ECU (Engine Control Unit) or ECM (Engine Control Module) remap means rewriting and optimizing the original calibration file inside your vehicle’s computer.
FixECM modifies the OEM software to:
✔ Increase horsepower & torque
✔ Improve throttle response
✔ Remove factory restrictions
✔ Optimize fuel and timing maps
✔ Enable smoother, stronger acceleration
✔ Reduce turbo lag
✔ Improve fuel economy under normal driving
This is not a cheap “OBD-flash tool tune.”
FixECM performs full read → remap → checksum correction → bench test for maximum reliability.
How Much Power Will Stage 1 Add?
Power gains vary by engine, but typical Stage 1 increases:
Turbocharged Gas Engines:
✔ +35–70 HP
✔ +50–120 TQ
Turbocharged Diesel Engines:
✔ +40–90 HP
✔ +70–160 TQ
Naturally Aspirated Engines:
✔ +8–20 HP
✔ +10–25 TQ
Every tune is custom built for your specific ECU, not a universal file.

I’m really impressed with the performance boost from this Stage1 tuning for my 2019 Audi S4. The power delivery feels smooth and responsive, and hitting 420 HP makes a noticeable difference on the road. Installation was straightforward with no complications, and the support team was quick to answer a couple of technical questions I had. Definitely worth it for anyone looking to get more out of their 3.0T engine.

Plus, the support team was quick to answer a few questions I had along the way, which made the whole experience stress-free. It’s exactly what I was hoping for—power and reliability in one package.

I recently had the 2018-2021 Audi S4 3.0T Stage1 Tuning Service done, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. The car feels dramatically more powerful with 420 HP and 500 torque—it’s like driving a completely new machine. What impressed me the most was their excellent communication; they kept me updated throughout the entire process and were quick to answer all my questions. The tuning was done professionally, and the turnaround time was faster than I expected. Plus, shipping was very reasonable, which made everything hassle-free from start to finish. Highly recommend this service if you want to unlock the full potential of your Audi!
