Remap at Unicorn - A4 3ltr V6 TDi Quattro...

Good evening all...

Today, I took the A4 Quattro (3ltr V6 TDi) for a re-map by Rick at Unicorn...after hearing such great things about him, I thought it was about time I sampled his skills...

****** Hell...the guy is a genius!

First, the figures...

Standard - 236.1 HP and 369.7 ft/lbs (both figures above Audi quoted)

After re-mapping - 278.9 HP and 448.8 ft/lbs

That, my friends, makes a stunning difference to the way the car drives! The car has MUCH improved acceleration - less gear changes, due to the increased torque and the car drives a lot smoother than on the standard map. But - you really notice the extra power/torque when overtaking...dear god, I nearly sh*t myself when I floored it to overtake on a long straight! I never thought the standard car was slow - but this is something else!

Rick has worked his magic again - he's turned my beautiful A4 into a real wolf in sheeps clothing...

Many thanks Rick - a job well done, mate.

If you're thinking of having your car re-mapped - book in at Unicorn, you will not be disappointed...

Cheers,

Simon

Glad you are all finding out what a great engine the 3.0 TDI can be if it's breathed on a little. Rick knows which buttons to press to make these engines work.

...he certainly does! So much so, that I am seriously thinking of selling the S3 and seeing how much can be got from the A4 (I may need some advice/help, Karl)...

...to be honest, Rich, at 'real world' speeds (by that I mean in-gear acceleration, rather than drag racing or inappropriate speeds on public roads) it feels faster than the S3! The S3, of course, is, ultimately, faster at the top-end - but 30 to 80 the A4 would eat my S3 alive...the torque in 3rd and 4th gears (I ran out of road before getting into 5th) is like a tidal wave...to say I'm impressed with Rick's work is an understatement!

Cheers,

Simon
