    it is the stage1 V2. GIAC doesn't have a stage 2 for the 2.0 yet, sadly. I have been begging for a stage2 file for a while.

    Interesting… I remember on the ACNA spring run you pulled pretty hard away from the FF. My only fear with Ambers car is without support mods she may see an issue

    @Ed4induction do you think that will be a problem? If I do anything else to her car and she has a problem she will murder me…

    Really the only issue I have had is with my rear O2 sensor, and that is because of my exhaust. before that no issues. it is still a stage 1 tune so supporting mods are nice but not necessary

    that is not entirely true, you gained pretty quickly, and you had Amber in the car freaking out. maybe in some of the corners but that is about it.

    Yeah not entirely true… Reality was more like this, he would take off and pull hard then as soon as my brain registered that he was flooring it I would step on it and be on his bumper. Amber didn't like me driving fast in the twisties so Don would take off and I would have Amber screaming at me while I told her to close her eyes

    Hi Josh, I dont see it being a problem. GIAC's "off the shelf" software is made for an otherwise stock car. When you do add exhaust, it will see that it has better flow and adapt making more power.

    Just let me know if you would like to set something up.

    Thanks,

    Ed

    We've flashed a good amount of MK7's and some MK7 Golf R's. Is there a specific concern re TD1 on the MK7 ? Not aware, but would assume they are building relationships with their service writers as on the Audi side.

    It's my wife's car. That's the primary concern. MK7 being early in its model year run is the other.

    Any local dealers explicitly not helpful or preferred? PM if you'd rather not say openly.

    Any other go fast bits for the S4 besides LWFW and clutch? Might as well start shopping for me too.

    Is that APR, AWE, or Alpha? Might be a late spring idea, when temps go back up.

    No one does lightweight batteries for this car that meet all specs, right?

    We would be partial to AWE. The Alpha kit looks nice as well.

    Cant say Ive seen a lightweight battery in a B8 / .5 .
