First off, if REVO were to write a BAT file for 75# injectors, do you think they would give it out for free to current software owners? Probably not.
I applaud 034s sucess with Jake's fathers car...as it sits right now, the MAIN reason that his car is making the power it is because of MIKE HOOD and for some crazy reason I do not see his name popping up to much in these discussions.
A lot of things fell into place during the development of Mr. Warburgs car, these all led to the ability of 034 and Uni to create the file they did...let's look at the timeline.
4-6 months ago, Jake and Mike Hood begin talking about putting together a B6 for Mr Warburg.
At this time, not many people were running Unitronics on a B6, there were no plans for this car to even be tuned on Uni, actually there was no clear choice for a software solution.
Mike contacted Eurocode to put together a package for the car, due to some philosophy differences between David and Mike and Jake (plus financial stuff). Mike decided to have 034 build a motor for the car (to stay within budget).
During the time of this build, 034 became a Uni dealer and also aquired a Land and Sea (Dynomite dyno), this was very huge, because Javad is a well respected tuner and undoubtely he would be able to give PROPER data to Uni to make the file proper.
A drop in fuel pump solution came out for the B6 during this timeframe and many AZ members began testing the fuel system, found it's strengths, weaknesses and solutions to overcome them.
Some AZ memebers also installed legacy return fuel systems and they were shown not to make any more power than what was currently available.
Cars were run with higher boost and each of them produced the same results (110% injector duty cycle with 630cc injectors at 24psi).
Many VW owners had begun to run camshaft and high flow manifolds, this data shows that the head makes a huge difference in making power on the 20VT.
At Mikes request, 034 worked primarily on the fueling system on Mr. Warburg's car, Mike and I have had extensive discussions nightly on what upgrading the lines will do for the system and the fact we both know that there will not be a need for a return line until 550AWHP.
In the end though, through the collective research done by AZ members along with Mike's persistence, 034 was able to take a solid package and create a tune that works...
Jake is also a huge player, just as much as Mike, since he picked out about 50% of the hardware and Mike picked out the other 50%.
Some of the things Mike has done for this build go above and beyond what even a friend or brother would have during a project like this.
Jake helped his dad find a car to purchase in So Cal (they live on the East Coast).
The car is purchased and is taken to Eurocode.
Stuff happens and Mike and David decide not to work together on the project.
Mike was very persistent and found an engine builder (Javad) and also somebody to fab up some of the hardware (Fred Su @ ER).
Mike personally stores the car, then he delivers it to Fred Su to get hardware fabricated.
Mike picks up the car (at 10:30PM) and trailers it up to 034 Motorsport (9 hour drive, he had 2 hours of sleep) and gives it to Javad to build the motor, at this time Mike decides he is willing to let Javad have a crack at tuning the car with Uni.
Jake has the head built by QED and sends it to Mike, to get the head to 034 in Nor*Cal, my beautiful Tracee pickes it up from Mike, and drives it 7 hours to my house, I then in turn, personally drive 2 hours deliver it to Javad at 034.
The car sits at 034 for quite a long time, as they have a busy schedule and are trying to fit it in...
034's schedule clears up, Javad finishes the car, breaks the motor in on the dyno and is finally able to create the tune in Uni...
...Next weekend, Mike will be driving up to 034, he will pick up the car and head to my house...the car will go to the QM track and Mike will see what 420AWHP will do in a B6 A4.
History will be made...the true difference lies in the hardware choices Mike and Jake made, you will see the similar numbers with REVO, GIAC and TAPP using this type of fueling architecture on similar hardware.
