Much more natural feeling. The engine sounds and feels happier, power delivery is much smoother, linear, and predictable. Just feels much more refined, and that’s all without added boost.

I started out really craving power but ended up really falling for the smoothness.
Something I felt this car has lacked since the day I drove it off the lot.

FAQs

  • No, the JB4 piggyback device interferes with the ECU tune and cannot be used at the same time.

    Here’s what our Early Access testers who switched from the JB4 device have said:

    “Much more natural feeling. The engine sounds and feels happier, power delivery is much smoother, linear, and predictable. Just feels much more refined, and that’s all without added boost.” -Brian S.

  • Our Tier 2 kit option is being developed to increase the maximum boost pressure, and pushing the peak gains of the tune.

    Anyone who purchases the Tier 1 OEM+ kit, will be able to upgrade to the Tier 2 by paying the price difference, minus a discount.

    So if the Tier 2 tuning kit releases at $950, Tier 1 kit owners can upgrade to the Tier 2 by paying only $300 minus the discount.

    Full details and Tier 2 pricing TBD.

  • +33 lb-ft peak gain, 327 lb-ft
    +60 lb-ft gained at ~3200 RPM

    +17 WHP peak gain, 238 WHP
    +60 WHP gained at ~5600 RPM

  • Great! We can extend a discount code to you for whichever components you already own.

  • Currently, the OEM+ Tier 1 tuning kit is compatible with all modifications available on the market:

    Intake, inlet pipe, downpipe, exhausts (including 80mm).

  • The OEM+ Tier 1 tuning kit is known to be fully compatible with the CX-5 and CX-30.

    We are actively confirming compatibility with the CX-50, and more model years of the CX-9.

  • At this time, software limitations do not allow for any TCM calibrations or direct adjustments.

    That said, our Early Access testers have reported that shifts may feel much smoother, and more refined as a result of the OEM+ Tier 1 tune.

  • Unless the ECU itself is the source of the warranty issue, tuning will generally not be a concern or even a consideration for warranty claims. We provide the ability to return the ECU to OEM calibration, removing the tune completely until after servicing is complete.

    Dealerships lack the ability to detect custom flashed tuning files. They may be able to view a flash count, but not that the tables have been modified.

    While the possibility always exists for a dealership to deny a claim, it's very unlikely and not something we've ever seen actually happen in over 6 years of tuning the latest generation of Mazdas.

  • There are always risks involved in modifying a vehicle. It is up to you to properly maintain your vehicle and reduce that risk as much as possible.

    Factory tunes are designed to reduce emissions and to suit every vehicle coming out of the plant, and this typically leaves a very large 'safety margin'.

    The 2.5T factory calibration is designed to accommodate 87 octane, which leaves a substantial margin for safety when using 91+ Premium Octane.

    Our OEM+ Tier 1 tune further maintains safety and reliability by keeping the factory boost limits, and not increasing the maximum pressure.

    Tuning the engine will require diligent regular maintenance, with oil changes, spark plug changes etc. at the factory recommended intervals to keep it running 100%.

  • Yes, the OEM+ Tier 1 tuning kit is designed to remain within the safe limits of the factory drivetrain components.

  • Not on its own. Tuning inherently improves the efficiency of your engine, allowing the engine to produce more torque for the same RPM and throttle position. This mean LESS throttle % is required to maintain the same engine RPM during cruise conditions and daily driving.

    We have seen a fuel mileage improvement of 2-3 MPG in our development testing.

    Driving habits, maintenance habits, and excess cargo are the primary factors in fuel economy.

  • Yes. For all 2.5T tuning kits, 91+ Premium Octane Fuel is required.

    Should you wish to continue using 87 octane, or want to make use of 87 for a road trip, the OEM calibration is the most suitable for this use.

 

Remote Tuning

Toronto, to Newfoundland, Texas or Iceland, We've Got You Covered.

All 2.5T Mazda tuning kits use a remote/email tuning process to tune your Mazda wherever you are around the globe!
Remote tuning requires you to send us datalogs and entitles you to six (6) file revisions to optimize the final calibration for your setup, within a maximum of 4 months from date of purchase.

We want to ensure everyone receives the level of support and care that is needed to guide you through the remote tuning process. This file and time limit allows us to ensure all tuning is kept up to date, and we are not bogged down servicing tunes that should have been long since complete. The end result is more time and attention available to serve you better.

So long as datalogs are submitted regularly, we’ve determined this timeline and file limit to be more than adequate for full completion of tuning.
However, delays and situations come up, and we are more than accommodating to ensure that you are able to complete the tuning that you have purchased.

If you believe you will be unable to complete tuning in this timeframe, just let us know and we can happily work out a solution for your situation.
