Can't wait for someone in the US to crack this ECU and TCU. I think a Stage 1+ is where it'd be at for longevity and everyday driving.
@Zupoyo5 ай бұрын
It's supposed to be uncrackable, at least via the OBD port. They really locked these ECU's down. The 8Y has been out in europe for four years now and nobody has cracked it yet, they always crack these cars first. I believe it is physically impossible based on the circuitry; unless taken out and sent to a shop for physical/in person modification. Syvecs just released a new ECU for it though, maybe that will be a much better option than the JB4, although it's expensive AF.

I ran the stagged 255/235 on 9" wide wheels on my 8V S3.. highly recommended. Bigger in the rear is just hauling extra weight with no benefit. Just a tune and minor bolt-ons on the old S3 is still good for 11's so not sure 4x the price of my used S3 is worth it (Mine was a 15' and I paid 22 for it)

12:00 the reason the gas gauge isn't showing up is because you have the car in performance mode. if you put the speedometer back to the normal gauge settings the gas level is displayed on the main page.

As I mentioned in the video this testing was done in terrible environmental conditions to go fast. That paired with too much tire for the OEM launch control and no ECU & TCU tune to be able to give it more boost or more rpm off launch definitely hampered it.
