    ECU and TCU tune - Battery charger question

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    Hey all and happy holidays. Took advantage of the Black Friday sale at 034 and finally am going stage 1. So as easy as this process is, before I begin I just want to make sure I use the right battery charger. I currently have a NOCO boost jump starter, specifically the GB40 model. I was wondering if that would be sufficient enough for both ecu and tcu tune.

    I will give you the answer I see 034 post on their Owners group page. They like to see a charger with a 15-20A output.

    You don't NEED a charger, assuming you turn off your headlights and AC, and your battery isn't 8 years old. It doesn't take that long, we're talking 10 minutes max for both flashes.

    I just confirmed that for the B9’s you can just pull the LPFP fuse as shown here: Trickle Charger

    Looks like the B8 LPFP fuse is B3 on the drivers side..
