Opel shares platforms with Peugeot, Citroen and DS within Stellantis since 2017. PureTech is Citroen's badge for its turbo petrol engines. The Citroen petrol range is shared with Peugeot and Opel within Stellantis. Citroen turbo petrol engines deliver a noticeable gain with Stage 1.

Older Opel models (pre-2017) share ECUs with Chevrolet, requiring a different toolset. On Opel petrol engines, Stage 1 delivers a noticeable gain. Within Stellantis, ECUs are standardised, so Opel files (from 2017 on) often work on Peugeot/Citroen. Mid-range Citroen engines are a mainstream chip tuning subject in Europe. The French Citroen community has a large pool of ready-made Stage files.
