New to car but not to forum

Hi all, just thought id say hi again, been away a while, was on here with my audi S5 but decided i needed more BHP so upgraded to a red R8 v10. Will post pics later. Question i have is anybody used the QS tuning MTM remapped ECU? I used QS tuning when i had my S 5 and had no complaints with the service but the ECU is over 3k and claims BHP gains of 588 bhp. I know some remaps are kind of a placebo effect so want to make sure i am getting bang for my buck. Thanks and will stay in touch....

Great choice!

You mean gains to 588?

Stock is hardly slow and im not sure youll get bang for buck if im honest...

Get an exhaust instead and enjoy the noise.

Or go twin turbo

Rule 1

Lol i know stock the car is quick, but i have had it now a few weeks and just want to see if i can get it that little bit quicker. As for the twin turbo idea i saw an American company called Heffners that could do that, but thats a little to much to soon! Lol

Take it to MRC, should be good for 580-590PS.

About £800 IIRC

Red R8's look <beep> btw.

You coming to Audis in the park on the 11th of August?

Think we need some more R8's!

[matt8442]

Heres a few more pics and regarding audis in the park afraid i wont be there as im working abroad for a few months, wont be back until end of October, so for me its the summer that never was! Lol luckily i have had 2 weeks back in the uk recently which was when i took the pics and enjoyed time with my car. Looking to get myself onto a european trip with petrolheads nirvana at some point when i get back...

[matt8442]

And here is another one. Internet running slow where i am so had to post twice....

[chunky79]

The only thing i would change is the wheel colour, they look lost being so dark. The R8 is a stunning shape and the red looks amazing.

[matt8442]

Sorry chunky but i disagree i like the wheels, had them powdercoated and the badges all redone in black. Some like it some dont. But like a fat girl whos great in bed, its not to everyones taste!
