Software - what have we been doing?
Going back to day one the original FSR module had 4 maps, this module was replaced with the FSR+ (push button) that had 3 maps.
the original 3 maps were as follows
1)100-1-5
2)100-1-6X
3)100-1-6
Now map 3 100-1-6 is our original file that Leo-83 used, and various customers have seen between 358 and 375hp depending on their car and more importantly the dyno used.
The general feedback from these files were that they were very progressive and customers didnt realise how quick their cars were until they looked at their speedo, once customers added the pedal box the power was more instant and certainly a lot more aggressive. You could say that commercially were better off selling the 2 items, and yes we are but we weren't happy.
After speaking to our partners in Germany they made a change to the file relating to the up/down speed, in layman terms they changed the speed at which the box reacted and produced the tune. The initial reaction on our own manual car, and a customers DSG S3 was that the changes were great and the car felt like it had the pedal box added. After several 1000 miles of testing on 5 different Audi S3/Golf R's we were happy to roll out these new files to our customers.
The new V2 software files were as follows:
1) 100-1-6 (old map 3)
2) 250-1-6 (quicker up speed)
3) 500-1-6 (quicker up speed)
after several weeks and around 50 cars we received reports from several customers with DSG/Stronic vehicles that gear changes on maps 2 and moreso map 3 were "notchy".. The majority of customers were over the moon with the "feel" of the updated software and none of our "test cars" had experienced these issues..
Over the last 2 months we've been working with several customers with both DSG and Manual (including a couple that had mentioned the issues) and other than the odd "notchy gear change" that several customers have mentioned occurs in standard form we seam to have eradicated the issues and keep the improved response that V2 software had given us. Ill be honest it would of been so much easier to go back to V1 software that is tried and tested, but once you've had a taste of something, its difficult to give it up
So the new V3 software is as follows
1)500-2-6 - produced 380hp at MSL Performance in Birmingham (DSG Audi S3 with APR Cold Air intake plus FSR+ box)
2)500-2-6DL
3)100-1-6 - The original map 3
We do have a record of every FSR+ module we have sold so i know exactly which software each of you is running, so before sending your box back to us for an update please contact us direct on 01207 299538
Costs:
if you bought your FSR+(push button) module direct from us then this update is F.O.C
if you bought your box second hand the cost is £75 plus vat plus return carriage.
if you bought your box second hand and have already paid for a software reflash to V2 software, then V3 is F.O.C
