What's the difference between "Stage 1 increased throttle response (MT)" and "Stage 2 increased throttle response (MT)"?

"Return to stock" is the 100% stock ECU binary. ie same as factory.

"Factory Settings" is the same behavior as factory, but with the alterations for thing like anti-lag, traction control etc.

"Base Calibration" is like "Factory Settings" except some tables has been altered to allow increased boost. The ECU will still perform like stock however.

"Throttle Response" changes the rate of change of the throttle plate. "2" is faster than "1". What you use is a matter of personal preference.

Thank you.But when I chose the "base calibration","K.control" will be "60%-80%" and "K.count" will be "5-20",Is it safe?

Since 'base calibration' runs the same as the factory ECU, as safe as the stock ECU.
