I have just got APR stage 2 tuned.
I know people say that ECU needs to relearn and adapt after the tune.
Does it matter how I drive for ECU to adapt?
Do I need to drive aggressively or just city driving is fine?

I'm sure you will notice it either way, but I would personally drive aggressively because that is how I drive normally anyways haha.

Interesting….I've heard about the ECU having to "learn". How long does it take? I'm getting APR Stage 2 in a few weeks.

The ECU will adapt to the environment variables (fuel, temp, humidity, etc.) and give you the optimal power the tune calls for after about an hour. But it 'seems' that how the power is delivered will change according to your driving habits just as it did with stock tune. If you jump on the throttle at every acceleration then you'll 'feel' all of the new tune. No matter your style you will 'Feel' the difference.

I didn't purposely drive more spirited after the tune, but when I do, I notice the difference. And that's good enough for me.

I dunno about you guys, but I couldn't do anything but beat the piss out of the car after going stage two...
