Hopefully, APR has the tune for my ECU code otherwise I may have to wait for them to create a flash which may take a week or so. If all is good I will get the flash.

I will drive the car a week or so then back to the dyno to see how much of a gain I get.

Stock at wheels:

HP: 385
TQ: 390

I will post the new numbers after the tune. Can't wait.

Sounds great. I don't think I've seen independently done "before and after" dyno runs for the S6. Would be great if you could make it out to a drag strip to do the same.

The tracks here are closed during the winter. I really wanted to do the track before and after. I will try APR stock tune , 93 Octaine tunes and see what times I get.

As Turbonator mentioned, I have not seen anyone independently perform "before and after" dyno runs. Since you will be strapping the car to the dyno anyway, do a "before" dyno run, flash the ECU and then do the "after" run. The only bad thing is that to get true results, you may need to drive the car a for a day or two for adaptation to occur (I may be wrong about it though).

I plan on driving a week or so on the tune before going back to the dyno. The shop with the dyno sells 100+ octane so I may get some pulls with APR 100 octane setting as well.

I did check and my local track is open on Saturdays so if the weather is good I am going to the track this weekend to get some times.

Has anyone taken a look at GIAC's tune for our car? I've used them in the past on some A4's with quality results.

- Peak gains of 103hp and 141lb-ft at the wheels on 100 octane
- Dramatic power gains of 77hp and 123lb-ft at the wheels -- on 91 octane!

Got the tune and a few VAG changes. I like the Lap Timer the best because of the turbo boost gauge. But back to the tune! Wow, different car. It is not just the power increase but the entire cars attitude while driving. Very responsive, in fact I went to pass a car and it moved so fast I could not believe it. The car down sifted in a second and was gone, so fast it hurt my neck, I was not expecting that kind of acceleration. I read how great the tune is but until you drive one you really cannot appreciate/realize what a drastic change it is.

Another perk is the down shifts in sports mode is hardly noticeable.

I will take it to the dyno and track in the next few weeks and post the results.

Good to hear. I assume you are talking about the APR tune.

Pretty much right in line with what every one reports after getting the tune.
