hi all
Just thought I would post my result / opinion on Superchips Bluefin, out of the box plugged straight into my 2010 A3 2.0 TFSI Quattro S-line S-tronic, couple of presses and it was copying my original map this took about 5 mins. In to the house loaded the software on to the lappy plugged in the Bluefin connected to Superchips website, uploaded my map 3 minutes later got a text and email that the new map was ready to download, only took 3-4 minutes to download it onto the Bluefin. So I am now sat in the car thinking weather this is a good idea lol have read all the posts on here regarding re-mapping and pros and cons of custom maps and hand held devices, I wanted something to take off and put on when ever I decided so went with the Bluefin, have also heard bad stories regarding bricked ECUs.........so it took about 15 minutes for my brave side to over rule my dont be CRAZY side the next 5 minutes were real squeaky bum time as all hell broke loose on the dashboard with flashing warning lights and beeps (Does state in the instructions this would happen) anyway it completed the install (Bum now relaxed) all I could do was pray the car started and the engine didnt fall out, I wont use swear words and to be honest I didnt think I would tell much of a difference........HOLY POO where the extra power comes from is unreal, I am normally a non believer and the car was fast anyway (well fast for me) it goes like a bullet train, as you can tell I am well inpressed and very happy
Cheers for reading guys
