    Happen to have an ECU already tuned that you can core charge me for and send you mine so I don't have to miss two days without my toy?

    Does this tune have dyno numbers?

    Rather see data logs as dyno's vary so much. Numbers are nice, but just tough to really know...

    Agreed on the boost/timing thing. Since I am able to adjust my Revo, I pulled out some boost, brought up the timing, timing is power. Did this a few years back, then added fuel with other software to make it happy.

    When the boost goes up, so do temps, and reduction in air density, and the timing gets yanked quick by the ECU, I've seen it a lot in my logs. 13-14psi might be a sweet spot, not sure on the timing adjust. I also cool the boosted air with a 50/50 water meth mixture, so can get away with a bit more, and will be even better with the Wagner's in a few weeks!

    No dyno numbers, only real world 1/4 mile ET and trap speed data from two different RS6s at the dragstrip which I recently posted in another thread here. I think this is far better since different dynos read differently plus there are a lot of ways that tuners can fudge the numbers. Here's an example:

    Totally Agree. Dyno numbers never really meant anything to me, only good for relative before and after comparisons. 1/4 mile times are what counts and Marks numbers have been extremely Impressive, the best I have every seen ( mid to upper 11's). I would have checked my 1/4 mile times by now but I have no Track close by and my Transmission is still not quite where I want it to be. I have always wanted to obtain his Map but it was not available at the time. Looks like things may have changed now.....

    I agree that dyno numbers can vary quite a bit, and it would not surprise me if many performance shops have their dynos adjusted to increase "customer satisfaction". But they cannot be all discounted, as I am sure that there are tuners that want real numbers. The torque and horsepower curves also provide value regardless of the numbers in that they show the quality of the tune. I think it would be interesting to see before and after results in this form.

    That said - send me a pm on what an ecu flash would be. My car is virgin.

    Thanks - Craig

    Sorry but I don't. I had a spare that I sold to a fellow forum enthusiast about a month ago. It's difficult to do anyway since the RS6 comes with an immobilizer from the factory. In order for the immobilizer to remain functional, the second ECU would have to be programmed to your VIN. This can be done with a VAG-COM tool but only if you have the PIN # specific to your car. You might be able to get this from the dealer or I can get it from your original ECU. It's much easier to just send in your original ECU.
