    In need of a better tune

    I have an Autospeed tune on my rs6. It made 400 awhp and 469 awtq. But the damn thing keeps cutting the throttle at 140 mph . My question is what kind of tunes do you guys use and what kind of numbers to the wheels ? I have Apikol InterCoolers and Intake. MTM tcu chip.

    There's a Eurocharged tuner in the for sale section, good tune most say. I'd stay away from Revo and GIAC, both tend to run lean. APR is the top dawg, $2k though I think. Fellow Marc, 10secS4 has a tune he sells for $500 that seems good.

    And don't forget @ Viper.

    If I had the $$$$ when I owned, I would have gone APR ECU tune or EPL tune

    Well whoever was flashing it was screwed up, that makes no sense. Any decent/good flash will get you 50hp/100tq at engine at least.

    Edit; or something was mechanically unsound and it couldn't handle higher boost pressure, drop into limp mode?
