What Mazda 3 owners say about GAN
Five minute fitting. Immediately obvious performance change (improvement). Improve the documentation/description about how to use the custom/adjustment mode(s).
Very fast post, very easy to install. Like everyone trying out a product like this I was a bit unsure what to expect, as there is a lot of debate online on the effectiveness of the application, or is ecu tuning better.

Mazda 3 I chip tuning: questions
Which tuning module do I need for the 3 I?
Find your engine in the table above: each row shows the module and the price.
Is a tuning module the same as a Stage 1 tune?
Not quite. Stage 1 usually means an ECU remap without replacing any parts. The tuning module also works without replacing parts, but it does not change the ECU software: it adjusts the sensor signals, comes off in about a minute, and the OFF button in the app restores the factory settings.
