We calibrate the original software of your Audi A8 D2 with the 4.2 V8 40v Quattro (ARU) individually, for more power, more torque and sharper throttle response. Bring the car to us in Stödtlen or send us the ECU.
Choose stage and options yourself, plus an on-site appointment or sending in the ECU. One fixed price, the same for both.

Your 4.2 V8 40v Quattro runs on the BOSCH ME7.1.5 ECU (Bosch ME7.x VAG (ME7.X 4/8 Mbit, ME7.5/7.5.5/7.5.10 1.8T 20V & 1.4/1.6/2.0 MPI, ME7.1/7.1.1/7.1.5 Audi V6/V8/W12, Bentley, Porsche Cayenne) family). We read out the original software, back it up and adapt the maps individually. No off-the-shelf file.
Naturally aspirated engines gain less power by nature. We optimise ignition timing, mixture and the throttle map; what you notice most is sharper response.
The original stock software can be restored at any time.
