Personally wouldnt go anywhere near the guys on ebay wouldnt touch them with a barge pole.

Go to a repitable tuner depending on where you are in the country,

Awesome,Star, Would of said AMD but may people offer propper remaps.

Just DONT go with the guys on ebay.

Ebay is not a place I'd go looking for tuners on. Its like the people who sell 'chips' that are nothing more than a 2p resistor yet they make massive BHP gain claims. Steer well clear and avoid throwing money away and more importantly risk damaging your engine...

i regret to tell you stay well clear!!! i had my 1999 a3 18t quattro remaped and it wouldnt run right in 1st n 2nd gear, he told me its because my temp sensor/maff sensor and manifold sensors have all been fried!!!!! see my thread called ecu remap let down!!! i ended up having the my old file put back on!!! he does seem to do alot of audi's though and it obviously does work on some cars but its weather you want to take the risk.....

There's so many good tuners around now that i'm sure one of them will be near to where your are.

Sorry to dig up an old thread but trust me there are so many "uploaders" out there it's dangerous! None of them have a clue what is changed in the file they buy or get from that amazing ebay cd so be warned. If you value your car seriously think about paying a reputable company the money for a reliable job.
