Working with these ECUs requires an intimate knowledge of engine dynamics and software engineering to properly understand and modify the functionality. Luckily, we have decades of experience in both fields.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUsing Cobb's ProTuner software, we have spent the past few years developing and refining our own set of staged tunes or \"OTS tunes\" for your MQB vehicle to be used with the Cobb AccessPort. Countless hours of in-house dyno testing, drivability road testing, and track torture testing went into the development of our calibrations. So you can be sure your car will perform optimally while retaining excellent drivability characteristics and a healthy margin of safety built into every tune.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe go way beyond the standard fuel, boost, and ignition adjustments that are common in the tuning world. We spent the time to go through and map out the complete torque control system, the complex ignition control and knock detection systems, the sophisticated turbo and airflow modeling systems, the fuel management and injection timing systems, and countless other parameters. The result can be felt any time you drive the car on a track, a fun road, or even for your regular grocery run. We generally see gains of 50-90whp over the factory calibrations depending on model and modification level. But along with those power gains, you will notice greatly improved throttle response, reduced turbo lag, and very smooth power throughout the powerband.  We also offer all the custom features from Cobb. These include our own customized traction control system, flat foot shifting, and burbles\/crackles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eChange Log - For the full tune changelog click \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/eqtuning.com\/apps\/help-center?fbclid=IwAR2JaQrz6hMx4fYfozqHgqU_kFOXZQHJusFh2cCXzvXGRLyt3wTdl5sEorw#hc-eqt-staged-tune-change-log\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003eHERE\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eOrdering Your Staged Tune\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen ordering, please select from the options listed for fuel quality, modifications, and special features you would like to be included in your tune.
