Default DT Power - New Products





I wanted to take a minute to stop by and thank you folks for all the positive feedback here. The response coming from all the new customers referencing the things they've read here has really meant a lot to me. I do my best to do right by you guys like I would want someone to do right by me. I spent a lot of years looking to you guys for advice on directions to go with my various builds. I want to be the kind of business that I would want to have a relationship with. My goal is to come through like that for you. Many of you know I answer my phone and text well into the nights and weekends when you're working on your cars. This means more to me than a couple bucks. For your support, I thank you from the bottom of my heart.



Here are a few new items that have dropped recently. I wanted to get these out there in a new thread and let you see the exciting new stuff for yourself.



Brand new on the scene is the TCU+ Transmission Tuner. This OBDII tuner plugs into your diagnostic port and retunes the transmission to get rid of much of the shift lag. It also enables me to run some more aggressive tuning without sacrificing the shift quality. This thing really does work. We've shipped over 40 of them just this week alone and the feedback is already pouring in.




You can buy it here







Here is old faithful. The Bluetooth DTE Powercontrol Tuner (formerly DTUK here in the States. Same product, more relevant name). This is what got it all started for me and you can read about it extensively here and here .



Click here to buy one







We also have the DTE Pedalbox throttle response tuner. This is basically a short shifter for your accelerator pedal. It helps to mitigate the throttle lag especially when driving in "D"



You can find those here







And the blacked out version here







We also released our own take on a cold air intake. It’s not the flashy (and scarce) AWE Carbon Fiber one, or the gorgeous but fantastically priced Eventuri one. It just works. It's not super flashy. It's reminiscent of the Roc Euro except it shields a little better from the heat in the engine bay and comes with a mounting system that more aptly matches the quality you'd want to put in your Audi.



You can find it here with the ECS turbo inlet included







And finally, for those of you thatg have been asking, here is a "Staged package that include all 4 of these. It will come with a tune that can pump out around another 15-20 HP with the advent of more air and mitigating the shift smoothness with the TCU unit. Overall this will save you almost $300 over buying everything separately.



You can find the combo here

When do you expect to start seeing products available for the RS5? I've seen the dyno run and video from across the pond,
but they don't even advertise it yet.

How’s the TCU tuner?
will it void warranty?

Does it actually help the car out with better torque such as faster 0-60 times and things of that nature?

Edit...

It will NOT void the warranty.

It resets the parameters in the transmission settings. There are operating parameters that can be changed without cracking the ECU. There are a ton of them in OBD eleven. This changes some of the key learning parameters, then locks some of them in place.

The dealer doesn’t register it as a change because none of the changes are outside the open parameters that are already available in the settings, but not optimized.

I’m guessing your statement should read, “It will not void the warranty”

Just spoke with Aaron over the phone in regards to the TCU tune and intake.

This guy is really genuine and explained everything in detail as to what to expect with both products linked to a DTUK Chip

After this convo, all I can say is that I will be purchasing both products sometime this weekend.
Cant wait!

Also yes just to clarify
It will NOT void warranty.

So, just to clarify, how do we get the RS5 version and is the RS5 combo version the same price? The website link goes
to the B9 S4/S5 version.
The Hp sounds right, but the UK video shows 101 Nm in torque add, which converts to 75 lb-ft. Does some of that get
lost over here due to US emissions restrictions? Curious.

Thanks for the info, and as long as none of the equipment in the combo will void the warranty(plan to purchase extended), I will be getting the combo after break-in.

I apologize for the incorrect information. I was stating the gains from memory and I should have doublechecked myself. You are correct. The gain is 38HP and 75TQ. The cost is not the same as the S4. I don't have them up on my website yet, but will soon. In the meantime, you can message me for pricing.
