I have a stage 2 ECU that I've had for about a year but haven't ran it because I was rather uninformed until lately, and for the fact and I wanted my engine broken in a bit after head gaskets. It is a home brew ECU from some guy in NC (I didnt buy it, got it for free basically. Cant turn down a stage 2 tune!) It spikes at 20psi and I am in LOVE with the extra power. Feels like a totally different car. However there's some issues I have, the ABS and EPC lights are always on with the tune in and it also occasionally does some weird shifts.
I want to use vagcom and get into the ECU to check that the engine code is correct but I don't have the tools for it and want to have it confirmed what I need to do this:
-Vagcom cable.. will this work? Theres so many to choose from but I've read to get one with a disc. http://www.ebay.com/itm/KKL-VAG-COM-...672568&vxp=mtr
-VCDS.. will the Lite version work for what I'm after or do I not even need it?
-Engine code(s).. It is an L-Box ECU according to the s4wiki, however I haven't found ANY info on what the correct engine code is and how to change it. Lots of A4 info but nothing for a Tip S4.
Thanks!
