Description

The APR ECU Upgrade is a software-based modification for the 4.0T EA824 V8 engine, aimed at significantly improving engine performance. This upgrade optimizes the factory engine management system to unlock the engine's full capabilities, resulting in a more powerful and exciting driving experience. The software is installed directly through the OBD-II port, making for a clean and headache-free process. It is compatible with most typical bolt-on modifications and is available for various fuel grades, including 91 AKI, 93 AKI, and 100 AKI in North America, and 95 RON, 98 RON, and 104 RON in the Rest of the World. The APR Stage 1 ECU Upgrade is the initial step in tuning, delivering up to 578 HP and 679 FT-LBS of torque. Features include program switching via the cruise control stalk, APR Mobile integration, Valet Mode, Anti-Theft protection, and adjustable fuel grades. For those seeking added peace of mind, APR Plus is available, offering a limited powertrain warranty that matches the factory term. Installation can be performed by a dealer, with an option to receive $250 toward APR Hardware with a tune purchase, or via a DIY method using an APR Ultralink device, which is a separate purchase. Note that the APR Plus option is not compatible with DIY installations and its availability may vary by region.
