Gen 2 4.0t EA825 ECU/TCU Software and flash tools are now live on the site. Following the last few months of testing we are happy to announce that with no component modifications on 91 octane users are seeing over 100 whp and 180 wtq for gains over stock. This makes for a completely different driving experience. With better fuel and modifications the gains become even more substantial.

Rs3 / TTRS flex fuel sensor kit update:

SRM has decided to machine an unavailable piece to make the kit truly plug and play. The instructions will be revised asap to remove a portion where you swap a stock fitting over. This also makes the stock line easier to reuse if needed. This piece goes to the rail/engine side.

On the sensor and feed side, what was once the upgraded kit, is now the standard kit with high quality AN fittings and larger diameter push lock hose.

The kit price has been raised slightly to accommodate this major improvement. All currently paid orders will not see an upcharge, those orders are beginning to ship next week.

New Product Available, detailed instructions on the page too. Now you can have real time ethanol content display on your factory VC dash as well as feed the DS1 data for active flex fuel which has been tested and functions perfectly with no user involvment needed.

Created and made in the USA for VLMspec by SRM. This kit will allow you to add a Continental ECA to your Rs3 or TTRS. The line and sensor kit replaces your factory low pressure fuel feed line under the hood making for an easy, reversable install. With this kit, you can feed ethanol content to any de...

The first product related to the DS1 8v.2 5 cylinder line is on the site. Supporting products are coming very soon (today) like the new SRM PNP fuel line / ethanol sensor kit.

Current customers, please make note of our flash tool trade in program and discounts for repeat custom tuning customers. We recognize that this platform has many customers who have been early adopters, repeatedly buying the latest and greatest options on a rapidly advancing vehicle. We hope to ease the sting a little bit for those owning numerous software solutions at this point. :)

***Notice, the DS1 is still considered to be in beta for the RS3 and TTRS. As of now Dyno Spectrum prefers for all customers who purchase, to have a relationship for custom support by a calibrator like VLMspec*** The DAZA DS1 product comes after the roaring success of their 4.0T product. They have i...

Lot's of talk of folded rods on the DAZA and DNWA engine that are in the RS3 / TTRS / RSQ3. Also a lot of questions about what that means and how to prevent it. Here at VLMspec we limit torque in the programming of the stock ecu aggressively to stop rods from bending unless upgraded. Here is a graphic representation of the TQ curve and you can see the flat spots in the spool and initial peak tq range also how its held lower than it could obviously be.

The rods are most likely to break from 3000-5000 rpm. On stock blocks with e85 this must be adhered to. Or you will eventually fail your connecting rod and ruin your engine.

Even with these limitations the cars are still 10.6-10.7 @ 130-132 consistently across the user base on street tires with average 60 ft times. For those who care about more than the qtr mile, you can hold these cars flat out all day.
