Who has a tuned 2018 TTS?
Does anyone who has a 2018 TTS have a tune? no offense to those who have a TT or TTRs or a Non 2018 TTS but myself (and others) need to see if anyone is actually running tune on this exact car. A few of us have had threads on this and other forums but I cannot find an instance of someone with an '18 'S' who actually has a tune. I'm hoping this thread brings somebody out of the woodwork who has one but just never posted about it.
Thanks in advance!

Hundreds of posts on golkmk7 forum. You have the same powertrain as the Golf R and those boys get after it. With the exception of Mossback and some RS crazies, this is where you should do your research. If you’re local to NJ I’ll introduce you to Billy, the only resource you’ll ever need.

If you look at the threads posted by myself and a couple of other guys on this and another TT forum you'll see that, clearly, there is something different about the 2018 that makes it somewhat unlike the Golf R and the S3. Two of us have tried a JB1/4 to no avail and at least one of us has had an issue with unitronic. Both Burger and Unitronic said OF COURSE they made a tune for our cars and there were plenty of people on other forums with a MK7 R or an S3 who had either tune but guess what - when we try to install them we have issues.
My hunch is that the change is minimal as VAG posts the identical numbers for those cars as they do for the 2017s.
I'm really looking for someone with a 2018 TTS who successfully purchased and applied a tune without issue. I appreciate the help from others who have cars of a different model year but if someone with a 2018 could give any sort of testimonial (positive or negative) it would be appreciated.

I spoke with Fred yesterday for several minutes about their Haldex tune. I’m sure he would get to the bottom of what’s up with your 18 TTS. Their latest VAG project is dialing in the tuning for VTT’s 500+hp turbo. UM is who I’ll be using when my CPO is up. They do custom tunes, sending logs, not canned one size fits all. Send him an email, he called me back in 5 minutes.

No I did not. I'm not interested in a custom tune. I'm only interested in a tune that is in use by lots of other people with my EXACT year/model of TT. That is not possible at this time and I'm ok with going without a tune until I hear of someone else who has a working one. I'd actually prefer at least 3 other people but I'm not sure that's going to happen.
