Default APR Tune- 100 Octane Video

I p[icked up a full tank of 100 octane fuel and switched to the 100 octane program of the tune...and made the below video. I messed up the video length but see for yourself. I will add a 91 octane video once my 100 is gone to see the difference. My number might be slightly off but in the GoPro software I was able to see every .20 seconds.

How do you get the boost to show up in the display like that?

When I had the VAG COM done for "LAP TIMER" it shows up when the display option is selected. You can select onboard computer, digital speedo, ..., Lap Timer, darkened...

Sweet. I will try this then. I have been lax about reprogramming my car since the last service and software update reset all of my VAG mods.

Very nice! I just had my APR tune installed over the weekend. I haven't had a chance to drive the car much yet, but it definitely pulls much hard once the tank of 91 octane runs out I plan on filling up with 100 to see the difference.

I had mine done at 1,600 miles as it will probably take me another 6 months or so to hit 5,000 miles...

Yeah, I'm waiting until the 5k service just to make sure everything is ok with the drivetrain. I hate that all the gas stations around west LA seem to be 91 octane.

Good decision. I had the fuel line recall taken care of on my S6 a few weeks back, so I was ready to bite the bullet as I won't drive more than 5K-7K miles in a year anyway.

The 76 station at Pico/Barrington has 100 octane at the pump.

I'm going there for the next tank! Did you get the oil changed yet? I wanted to do it early but now I think I'll wait until 5k and then get the tune.

Very Nice. I see the DSG in S6 shifts at redline, unlike the annoying DSG software in S4 which short shifts no matter the settings you choose.
