The GIAC software upgrade offers an extra 43 HP and 41 ft lbs at wheels (6MT vehicle tested, tiptronic equipped vehicles will spike higher) and a reconfigured throttle response for a dramatic drive-by-cable feel. Despite these unparalleled performance gains, this software upgrade maintains the smooth drivability of the stock programming.
GIAC’s Flashloader handheld switcher is available for this application, complete with the following switching options:
• 100-octane performance
• “Stock” performance
• Valet mode
• Privacy Firewall
Dynamometer test results for an A4 B8 A4 2.0T TFSI measured at the wheels are included here. The initial run (red) denotes a stock baseline run with OEM software, intake, intercooler and exhaust. The second and third runs (blue and green) showcase performances runs with GIAC software only. The exhaust, intercooler and intake remained stock. All runs were performed on 91 octane fuel.

Until 05/15/2014, customers who purchase GIAC 2.0T pump mode software for 2011 models will receive stock, race and valet modes in addition to a GIAC Handheld Flashloader Switcher for an MSRP of $650.00. Sale MSRP for a single pump fuel performance program is $495.00 with the sale.
