      Unitronic Corporation Inc. Why don’t you just make a mobile app for program switching similar to APR and just own the RS3 aftermarket. If you made an iPhone app I would switch over from my Stg2 APR RS3 in a minute.

    I love Unitronic and the uniconnect cable. Has been flawless for a couple years on my 2015 Audi A3. I must switch to stock tune each year to pass emissions state inspection. Running a high flow down pipe I must also “trick” the 02 sensor with a mini cat spacer. But without the uniconnect cable I couldn’t run a tune.

    Adam why you don't run E85 in the winter? I know injectors need to be upgraded when going stage 2 E85, do you switch injectors when you switch from E85 to the 93 file in the winter?

    • @VancityAudi
      @VancityAudi  4 года назад +1

      E85 doesn't like cold. You get rough starts. Plus I've never racing in the winter. Why waste money on fuel and wear and tear on the vehicle? No, you don't need to switch the injectors back to OEM to run 93 after you've run E85. Unitronic has made a tune for 93 while running the upgraded injectors.

      Vancity Audi KSF motorsport (best audi tuner in France ). They have their own map. My rs3 sedan with milltek downpipe, IE intake and wagner intercooler make 617hp/760nm on e85 and 535hp on octane 98.

    Hi. I see in 4:20 there's an option for a Stage2 without any hardware requirement (rev5b). Is it correct?...If so, what would be the expected HP gain over a stage 1+?. Still waiting for their 8Y software... =(

    • @VancityAudi
      @VancityAudi  9 месяцев назад

      I wouldn't put too much stock into the software descriptions. Just because the hardware isn't listed doesn't mean you don't need it to get the most out of the tune.

    If you have the fuel it flex fuel kit ? Does it matter if you have let’s say half a tank or quarter tank of gas and flash it .

    • @VancityAudi
      @VancityAudi  2 года назад

      It absolutely matters. The Fuel-It kit is just a way you can see what ethanol percentage you are at. You still need to make sure you are between an E60-E85 blend

    Hello. I'm looking for help. I have an audi tt rs 8s and I have my uniconnect. I currently have the stage 2 map, e85 but I don't have the same view nor the file rev3rb2 of e85,. wiith the launch control of 8psi.
    I know that this file currently has 10psi. How do I get these maps?

      You'll have to reach out to Unitronic directly via email or phone. Keep in mind different model years and different cars around the world will have differently labeled tunes.

    Hi Adam I have a 2018 Audi Ttrs and I’m going to use e-85 for the summer/fall. I have the MPI upgraded injectors for the set up. I see on the screen it says “use at your own risk" under the file you’ve chosen. Do you know why?im just curious if you don’t know it’s all good thanks.

    • @VancityAudi
      @VancityAudi  11 месяцев назад +1

      That file offers more boost off launch for drag racing with radials or slicks. The likelihood of breaking something goes up the harder you launch your car. Keep in mind these files have changed over the past few years and might not be the same anymore on the Unitronic server.

    Hi, quick Unitronic stage 2 98 file question. Resently tuned and today during a pull all power abruptly gone. No fault codes when connected to Unidignostics. No engine lights nothing. Did you ever experience this? Power is way down / seems limp mode... hope you can help. Thanx

      Sadly I don't even know what Unidiagnostics is. I would plug in VCDS and see if you have any fault codes present. I have never experienced limp mode myself but have seen videos of other people experiencing it. Your red line will have lowered to 4K if that is the case.

      @@williambardin94 All it does is confirm the ethanol percentage that is currently in your tank. You do you, if that works for you.
