Default AMS tuning skills WARNING

I can't wait to hear what the AMS groupies have to say about this one. Perhaps it is just a one off mistake but this is poor customer service.<ul><li><a href="https://forums.audiworld.com/a4/msgs/690402.phtml">https://forums.audiworld.com/a4/msgs/690402.phtml</a</li></ul>

Default Why yes customer service at that moment in time wasn't as cool as it could be.... However,

I'm certain that once marc is in they'll rectify the money aspect of things.

As far as the pinging goes it could be any number of things and I'm sure if you were to try any other chip that increases boost at the same instance you'd see pinging.

Default no comment about the general post but...

Audis should NOT ping...that whole thing with the ECU cutting timing is there to prevent that. I HAVE ridden in an AMS chipped S4 that pinged...didn't care for that much.

Default Hey Drew, I thought you were on my side...I'm not as bad as FeSO4 over there...

if I told you of our tint conversation yesterday, you'd be choking right now.

I'm gonna go bankrupt just hanging with these guys.

Default There is only so much advance/retard the ecu can do.

If the local gas is that crappy or thier engine isn't 100% sound then maybe people should NOT chip. There is a reason that most turbo cars never produce more then .8 bar from the factory. This is it...
