We have a new dealer in Northumberland, this is the only dealer in the UK we have in the UK. Others are in Dubai, Malta, Denmark, Finland, Brunei.

There is no Dyno but they are extremely competent with tuning and diagnostics, meaning you will get a get a premium map which is datalogged and checked to make sure your car is running exactly as it should be.

Current pricing for example on S3 8P

Stage 1 £300 305-315bhp
Stage 2 £350 325bhp
Stage 2+ £400 350bhp +
TTE420 - £600 - 405 bhp when used with standard injectors.

Thanks, Rick

Thanks for the intro Rick,

North East, we're based. We're a company looking to innovate in ECU development to a select range of UK tuning companies in the VAG/Ford sector, also we are very happy to provide a safe and secure service for Rick and his customers as and when needed up here in the NE.

The site will be up soon I'm just nose deep in development at present. :)

Appointments - always via Rick please.
 
Nice one Rick....good to see a good business expanding.

You're expanding in the wrong direction Rick! :) The South-East needs some Unicorn magic too! The prospect of a trip up to Manchester is the only thing that is preventing me from getting in the car and getting one of your DSG maps on my car tomorrow :)

Great, site will be 3+ weeks a least it's in limbo unfortunately. It's basically going to have a link to unicorn, all bookings via Rick as he knows the craic! Plus it's his files, not mine.

Check the map dude, Edin is like 40 mins in the B8 lol. I like 2 miles from the Border, close to Edin and the Toon so imo it's a good location.

Let's just say Glasgow, Edin, Northumberand, and Newcastle all within 2 hours or less.

Rick sends me files, I check the car flash it, log it, if any tweaks are needed they will be done quick.

IMO Rick picked a good location! Plus I have a lot of ECU experience.

That's what I mean haha. We mainly just have APR or Revo dealers in Scotland and a few custom tuners but don't specialize in VAG cars or aimed at the more business related Economical maps.

May be in by at some point to change from APR software to Custom as I will be installing water meth injection so better having that mapped in. Possibly see if switchable maps would be an option as APR screwed me on that

Well sounds ideal then. Looking forward to a booking :)
 
Haven't spoken to Rick but I could come down to say Cambridge for a day if it helps (and enough interest to warrant it)

Grand I've emailed Rick to see if it's doable, just trying to please you guys :) re the valve Rick will answer they're his maps.

I must say it's a pleasure speaking to you guys, coming back to Audi after 7 years Volvo it's so much more peaceful.. :)

What numbers are you after John?
 
You can arguably run a little more mid range boost with the RS4 vale, but I don't normally do this. If you have issues with fuel pressure not being maintained and low and high pressure pumps are fine, then it can be your existing valve is weak. But in most cases there is no problem running the 130bar fuel pressure we use for Stage2+

I'm having my injectors refurbed as I have a misfire at idle and I'll be going hybrid tte420 at some point so just trying to work if it's worth doing the rs4 valve and 155 bar while the injectors are out
 
I wish we have a dealer over here!
