When (if ever) is APR going to release new A6 s/w???
Hellooooo, how about Octane-specific maps for most 2.7T ECUs.
Only V3.0 EMCS for almost every A6 2.7T ECU, up to V3.3 for *EVERY* S4 ECU. APR why are you hating us A6 customers?????? Isn't our money green too?

that sucks, I called 'em on the phone and they said it's easy to convert S4 sw into A6...
and they confirmed that it should happen soon, because one of their employee got A6.
But, call them on the phone and ask for it. We should show enough demand for the upgrade.

I am very dissapointed in APR...
I have a '0 2.7 and went with APR because I thought they had a good product at the time, and also because I expected them to be serious about supporting customers down the road. Here we are over two years later and they are supporting the '02s but not the older cars. Is this because they already have our money? It certainly seems so to me.
I have contacted APR more than once about other octane programs, and the best they can say is that they are "interested in providing the option but estimated release info is not available."
At this point, my opinion of APR is much lower than it was at the time of purchase and I would have reservations about doing business with them in the future.

Agreed, very disappointing!
I'm waiting until warranty end before upgrading my ECU, but I was pretty well sold on APR's product based on its upgradeability.
As many below have said, this is a disturbing trend! I suppose APR has some time (for me) to get their act together, but I'm going to have to assume that I'm making a one-time s/w purchase. In that case, there are a lot of other vendors to consider....

I would not go with APR again.
All the advantages that got me to buy their chip have proven to be useless, as they haven't updated the software at all. I am reminded of this everytime I hit the 3-4k rpm flat spot.
