Yes we take the stock ROM file, and we add our controls to it. It's a bit more in depth than that but thats the general idea. We like to replace the ROM file with the actual ROM your car came with or the update for that ROM. Other companies use a single ROM to overwrite many ROM files. Nissan uses different ROM files for a reason and when you do it the cheap/easy way it can cause all sorts of odd problems.

Our way takes a while longer but the end results speak for themselves. Less customer issues, and the issues that do arise we resolve.
