Damn, sucks how you can't group PM and I don't feel like text spamming you guys.

So everyone responded to my last PM.

Aston - Free anytime this week except Wednesday night
Ben - Free anytime this week except Wednesday and Friday night
Evan - Free anytime this week except Wednesday night
Obie - Free anytime this week

So that leaves tonight, Thursday evening, Saturday or Sunday (I don't want to drag it passed Sunday).

Re: United Motorsports ECU/DSG/Launch Control tunes

Kk, we will have to wait on Ben's approval since we'll be using his place.

I'll be bringing my battery booster pack and trickle charger as per Shawn's recommendation.

Re: United Motorsports ECU/DSG/Launch Control tunes

Ben is good with tonight as well.

I won't be able to get to his place until 6:30 as I get off work at 5:30. I'll PM you guys his address.

Hey folks, how did the UMS tuning go?

On another note do you know if the latest ECU tune from UMS has has the SAI disabled? I inquired with the guys at UMS and they said they could send a new code to remove/add it from the current ecu's coding they offer.

What this means is you could completely remove the SAI system and save a couple of pounds of weight (we all know the r32 could use a diet). I already have to block-off plate for the removal just want to know if this if part of the ECU flash you guys are doing.

cheers

Hey,

We are going to do the tunes tonight.

Hmm the last I read about the SAI reflash it was an additional $50 (this was in fall of 2012).. I'm not sure if UM has since included the SAI delete in the current stock version of the tune.

Yeah I think the numbers are 7-10lbs by removing the SAI system. You might have better luck getting answers from Shawn or contacting UM guys directly (which I've never been able to do lol).

Re: United Motorsports ECU/DSG/Launch Control tunes

I've driven a good chunk this weekend with the UM tune. It's been pretty fun, makes it feel like a completely different car, really keeps pulling away when you put the foot in to it. The spark cut is fun when manually shifting, but when slowly pulling away in auto a low rev shift can be a bit jerky at times.

thanks... I just went with the stock combo tune, not sure what nickname it has lol. Evan/Fated got the 'spark cut' combo tune.

Yeah it really feels good.

Here's the link to the DSG adaptation process. Maybe give that a try to see if it helps with the jerks. http://forums.vwvortex.com/showthrea...tation-and-you
