I saw Achtuning has an upgrade that says 560 hp. They are out of Redmond Washington. Anyone used them before?
I just ordered my car last Saturday so just looking into this.
On the ACH unit though they showed stock hp as 480on on their test car.

Stasis ECU update does not void the Audi warranty but they do not have a unti out yet right?

Stasis tune voids the Audi warranty (like any other ECU re flash would) for any parts affected by the tune
Stasis provides their own REPLACEMENT warranty for the factory parts nullified by their tune, but that is only good as long as they are in business
Stasis tune not actually available for S7 at the moment anyways
APR bumps you to 560 HP and 580 TQ
0-60 in 3.5
(On 93 Octane)

Got my APR Tune on Monday
IT IS AMAZING... changes the driving characteristics of the car immensely
1) The POWERRRRRR... the car pulls so much harder, like a Freight Train, after the first second (once the boost builds)
2) The throttle "lag" is gone: seems like the car responds much quicker, and decisively to throttle inputs
3) Shifts happen decisively, with so much more power available immediately into next gear. I've already had wheel spin 1st to 2nd couple times (on mostly dry, but winter roads)
SO HAPPY I got it done
ENJOY

Did you play with the Valet setting? Would not use often but it would give me peace of mind.

Clintb: I've been anxious about getting the APR tune and your post has really made me want it more.
After a few weeks, are you still as enthusiastic? For me, there's always an initial "Wow" factor, then it trails off.
Are you concerned about the warranty issues? How did you justify the risk/benefit?
Do you think the tune will effect the resale value of the car?
Did you consider other companies besides Stasis, i.e. Giac?
Thanks
