Default MTM Cantronic (TDI)

I don't own a TDI so I'm not sure how this compares to other tuning options but it looks interesting, nevertheless.

Very cool! Hopefully the US tuners will take a cue from this and delivery something similar.

Default Wow so it raises 60-70 hp for the A5?

I imagine they would not be making such a unit for the S5 as it eat into their sales of their supercharger. ~50 hp increase for the S5 would be perfect...

Default Unlikely to do the same for the S5...

The 3.0TDI is a twin-turbo engine, and much of the gains come from increasing the boost pressure. Since the S5 is normally aspirated, the best they can do is tweak some of the engine management parameters. Still, a good tune on the S5 can apparently net up to 25hp.<ul><li><a href="https://forums.audiworld.com/a5/msgs/30040.phtml">https://forums.audiworld.com/a5/msgs/30040.phtml</a</li></ul>
