The only way to tune the car is to go into ur audio settings on ur nav and then adjust ur bass setting all the way up. U will then see a "Tune" option. Click on it but please make sure the are no small children or animals in ur car when u do it.

iCode, Novel, and SARD offer a compelling tune for RHD cars. As has been true for many years, there are no other options for LHD cars.

I see. How is it that some guys on this forum are using Novel headers? Did they have them made especially for LHD application??

Yes, and at one point Novel was working on a tune for LHD cars. It has not made it to market.

Yes, they do. It isn't inexpensive, but it definitely can do some fun things, like remove the top speed limiter, change base throttle response curve, and produce more power with a sharper tune. Just be sure not to put bad fuel in it. The sharper tune is a lot less tolerant of bad fuel.
