    B8.5 A4 2.0T TCU Software (APR, JHM, ??)

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    I currently have a B8.5 allroad with an APR stage 1 tune (E85) on it...and was looking at what options there are for a TCU tune. The only company that seems to have something out there is JHM. I've heard rumors of APR releasing this at some point, but couldn't find much on the website.

    Does anyone have more info on the B8/B8.5 2.0T TCU tunes and/or have feedback to share on their experience so far? Thanks!

    Motoza Performance in general has TCU tune for ZF8 on the B8 platform. It doesn't look like they list it separately, but it may be worth it to ask them if you could buy TCU tune only.

    My B8.0 with ZF8 was used during development of Motoza's stage 1 ECU/TCU tunes.

    No worries. I started reading the HP Forums yesterday and will check out the q5 and give it a go. Thanks for the direction. There is also this post that I am just starting to go through. https://www.audizine.com/forum/showt...9-ZF8-TCU-Tune
