You can buy a module for the BMs now to read the password then tune via OBD. There is something similar with Audi and virtual read but not looking into it for my car yet. It will mean upgrading my tool and that's never cheap.

Not sure what stage 1 will be. prob around 660 680? I struggle to get good fuel where I live. I can get 97 but even that's no good. We really struggle to get good power / ignition advance on the GTR due to fuel. if I drove to Aberdeen (100 mlie round trip) and filled up it made a huge difference. Cant do that every time I want fuel so ended up tuning on 97 ron. the RS will be the same.

I will go straight to 3 inch downpipes look at the induction side and full Milltek. hopefully around 730-750 fuel dependent.

RS7 FL best car I've owned. No faith in turbo oil screen (turbos failing) or sticking oil scraper ring causing missfires.
F10 M5 LCI still no rear grip lol
S7 black Edition Too big and heavy
S3 8V FL DSG 310ps, road noise is a joke
RS3 8P Rubbish
C7 RS6 Fantastic car but missed playing
GTR R35 800bhp, too extreme, crazy fast though
911 Turbo Remapped. Hated it

What about fuel additives? I'll caveat this if it's stupid with, I have no idea what I'm talking about!

Early days they got slated but looking on some recent results they are getting much better. Guys in the US use them more than we do.

I tend not to use additives of any description just because I am lazy. Everyone raves about Meth or water injection but its just another tank to fill and I know I would forget. If my car is tuned for 97 I cant get any worse. I know I may get stuck with 95 but that fine running 95 you just done nail it.
