Anybody do any pedal tuning or do a throttle response tune to their rs7/s7/a7s? Is it safe? Cheap? easy to do? and what company/tune did you use?

Just demoed an APR throttle booster on my q3 daily and it made a hell of a difference truly. No power but its a feather throttle now when i want it to be

I am curious about this as well. I have an APR tuned A7 and the throttle response is so much fun. I rented a Tesla Plaid and thought it would spoil me, but it didn't. Then I got a RS7 and while it has gobs of power, I miss the razor-sharp pedal feel.

I know why Audi doesn't do it from the factory, because if I'm not careful with the A7 I can catch the transmission in the wrong spot and it makes the car feel a bit raw. But I did have a chat with my local shop about going the tune route just to make the throttle mapping in the RS7 more to my liking. It's definitely possible.

It would also effect gas mileage big time, especially city driving.

I installed a sprint booster on my 034 stage2+ a6 and found my favorite setting right now is at sport mode 9. I drive on D, not sport, and get about 410 miles to a tank. On higher settings its too twitchy for my liking except when i really want to do some spirited driving,….. then I keep it on race mode 3. Car feels waaaaaay quicker! Imo

I'll offer a slight voice of opposition.
I installed a sprint booster on my APR Stage1 S6 and immediately returned it.
I did not like the way it made the throttle behave. It is very possible it was just me as I was used to the way the throttle already behaved and this made it less predictable for me.
Basically not for me.
