    Which tuner? ABT, MTM Others???

    I am in the process of picking up my new V10 and I want to get the power it was designed to produce. So far I have come across the following tuners and their respective claims for a reflash of the 2 ECU's. There may be others.

    ABT 600 HP
    MTM 588 HP
    Cargraphic 560 HP
    STaSIS 560 HP (552 SAE)

    Has anyone any experience they can share. before and after, service etc.,

    Thanks

    I rode in a V10 R8 he tuned here in Dallas and it was a beast! Probably the fasted normally aspirated car I have ever been in!

    Hi LAT and welcome. What is your location?

    I've only tried the MTM and it's really nice. If you spend some time here you might know a bit more:

    Neither, it was just a test drive of the two cars.

    Have you considered APR?

    We offer our software with a 30 day money back guarantee so you can try it and return it if you don't like it.

    The V10 offered up great power gains for only a naturally aspirated engine because audi went to curtain measures to ensure power output was much lower to create higher output models (R8GT & Lambo's). This means we were afforded more room than the minor tweaks that can be made to ignition timing, air fuel, and other common changes.

    All in all, we were able to pick up quite a bit of power.

    If you haven't tuned the V10 yet, take a look at what we have to offer.

    For some reason that's the value Audi actually decided to use in the software for the stock speed limiter. :-)

    Ditto.

    Actual "gains" or max increases may be inflated based upon input data and what dyno is being used( I know, kicking a dead dog ) but as Arin mentioned, Hp/Tq are just a part of it, throttle responce, etc are increased as well!

    We did the R8 marklar182 talked about and have a Spyder on the dyno right now doing the same. The spyder has Stasis exhaust on it too.. sounds nice!
