2001.5 Audi S4 2.7T... Dynoed! (Stock vs GIAC-X w/ Graphs)

2001.5 Audi S4 2.7T dynoed on a Mustang Dynamometer at AWE-Tuning

Dyno Run 1: Stock
212AWHP (250BHP Reported)
224AWTQ (258BTQ Reported)

Dyno Run 2: GIAC-X
269AWHP (317BHP Estimated)
267AWTQ (308BTQ Estimated)

Dyno Run 3: GIAC-X
268AWHP (316BHP Estimated)
275AWTQ (317BTQ Estimated)

There was no time allowed for adaptation after the GIAC-X Flash. It was flashed on the dyno for true 'out of the box' results. This was all done on a stock engine, stock turbos, stock air filter, and stock exhaust. Explanations and dyno graphs within video!

Sounds more raspy, Probably the difference in timing with the chip or its just the boost!

[PovGRide742]

@harorider95 I don't even notice it, just louder boost.

[MrChrispchris]

@PovGRide742 Is this just an installed chip or what? How much does it cost and how long does it take to install? Those are great power improvements for just a chip.

[PovGRide742]

@MrChrispchris Not sure about the 2000 and 2001, but 2001.5 and 2002 are able to be flashed instead of having an actual chip soldered in the ECM. The chip/flash changes various things such as timing and fuel mapping, but most importantly raises the boost, which is why there are such big gains. Stock boost is 8 PSI, where as this tune is around 15 PSI.

This video is a great lesson to others on how to properly do before & after/modding/dyno comparisons...all the details included - facts, numbers but also your own thoughts and comments. Good stuff.

@LS1hondaeater Yeah... get used to it. These things eat your wallet. I'm in Womelsdorf, right between Reading and Lebanon.
