Fantastic. I'm not an expert, I just remember someone saying that every change in a car's software will leave a trace, even if you go back to stock map before service to avoid problems. I'm really curious to see your results on Thursday from a dyno, as well as from driftbox later on.

Michał, how do you know that remap will not void the warranty? I was told by my dealer that any modification will be noticed by service employees and will definitely void the warranty. As for the box, (and this is my opinion), I wouldn't buy one for such small improvement over real stock...

Hope it is not an off-topic as winter tyres increased my fuel consumption :) I initially wanted to buy new Nokian D4, but the price difference between them and Pirelli SottoZero 3 was insignificant so I went for SZ3 with R01 certification. I called my Audi dealer and he said that there are no...

Outside town 31-35mpg, city driving (Dynamic and full acceleration) 12-13mpg, motorway 87mph on a cruise control around 28mpg. These are on winter tyres, PZero gives better mileage.

Now when I changed to winter tyres, I tend to have consumption higher about 0.5-1l per 100km. On a motorway constant speed of 140kmh results in around 10l/100km. Night driving in the city, around 22-24l/100km. Roads outside town with small traffic, around 8-9l/100km. On a German highway we...

I didn't bother with running in. I did 17km and went full gas.

Michał, nice looking RS3 in Nogaro. Let me know if you are going to visit Poznań, we can meet up and talk about our cars. I noticed the same that 277 on a speedo is max you can reach with standard limiter. 4.0 to 100 is a good result, I believe in the summer on good tyres we could go below that...

Comfort steering, auto gearbox and dynamic exhaust. On motorway I always turn comfort on as it gets too loud around 120-140kmh. I use dynamic only after 9-10pm when I can use the car's dynamics.

Nice experience. However, when my friend showed 277 to his friend with S63AMG tuned by Brabus, he drove to highway and ended up with 306. I need to get RS6...

Are you expecting 50-55ps gains from 367 on paper or from the real power, e.g. 390ps? I was told around 500 quid here in Poland for a box (which is not yet available, so maybe this tuner is buying them from you? :)), but if I were to achieve 50ps from 367 to about 420 and my real power output...

Ok, that makes me a happy man who saved almost 1500 quid for just 10kmh less.

Ok, so 287 kmh on YT with 280 limiter on paper is 178 mph, -10% gives around 160 mph. So, if I had paid for limiter moved to 280, I would be definitely ****** to be able to go only 10 kmh faster (on a speedo) and 5 mph faster in reality, instead of 30 kmh (19 mph) advertised. Am I missing something?

Hi Guys, over the weekend I did a trip to Germany and of course I tried the max speed - it reached 277 km/h and it won't go any faster. I didn't opt for limiter moved to 280km/h. Can you explain why my car can reach 277 (on a speedo of course, GPS speed is lower) if it has limiter on 250km/h...

I don't like red calipers as well. De gustibus non est disputandum as they say.

Edited by my friend, bit rubbish to be honest, but hopefully next will be better :)
