Tuning Solution for DQ381 with factory 401 bootloader

 

After extensive testing TuneZilla is proud to release our solution for DSG equipped MK8 R and GTI models with the "locked" 401 Bootloader. This is a physical hardware change. By removing the mechatronic unit and swapping to our pre-flashed bootloader, users can enjoy more features not available from the factory.

 

Please Note: The TCU tune comes pre-loaded on the unit and was designed to work with our ECU tune. If you have another company's ECU tune, please ask them for a high TQ file as low TQ options can limit the performance of both ECU and TCU tune.

 

Running another company's TCU tune will void the warranty offered on our 301 Bootloader units.

 

The TuneZilla Bootloader comes preloaded with the following features and adjustments:

 

-Torque Limiters Set 800nm

-Two Step Launch Control 3500rpm No Kickdown / 4000rpm With Kickdown

-Faster Launch Control Take-Off Reaction

-Displaying Gear Number In D/S Mode

-Sailing Mode Off In Economic Mode

-Upshift Off In Manual Mode

-Max Clutch Pressure Values Up To 18-19bar
