What a Stage 1 BMW 118i Remap Does
The B38 three-cylinder in the F20 and F40 118i runs a conservative factory map. A stage 1 BMW 118i remap recalibrates boost pressure, fuelling and timing to produce more across the rev range. Throttle response improves noticeably, and the mid-range torque increase makes the 118i feel like a meaningfully different car on the road.
The stage 1 is software only. SGR connects to the ECU at your location, loads the calibration and carries out a verification check before leaving. The whole process takes around 90 minutes.
