This software calibration accommodates the factory exhaust and intake system, retains OEM-like drivability, and offers dramatic performance improvements over the factory software. The GIAC calibration for the MQB 1.8T delivers peak-to-peak performance gains of 58 hp and 45-60 ft/lb torque. This program increases power and torque performance to provide a completely different driving experience under all conditions. All GIAC performance software for the MQB 1.8T is designed to work with the Flashloader Mobile device at this time for easy installation. Software Features Include: More boost Optimized fuel and timing Increased torque limits The following ECU part numbers are currently supported. If your part number is not on the list, ask your GIAC authorized dealer to submit a file request. 5GM906264 8V0906264A 8V0906264D 8V0906264F 8V0906264K 8V0906264L 8V0906264M Dynoplots display performance gains with GIAC software using 91 octane fuel. Additional power increases may be observed with additional performance hardware and/or a higher octane level. 1. GIAC has the most experience of any US tuner reprogramming Bosch Motronic. GIAC reprograms Audi/VW/Porsche/BMW/Mercedes/Fiat/Citroen destined for both US and German markets. 2. GIAC only writes ECU software and does not lose R&D time on developing exhausts, suspension, turbo kits, air filters, etc. 3. GIAC takes a base program from a new ECU (starting in their computer lab, using five dedicated networked computers) and completely disassembles out important functions using extremely complex engineering software. This is the same software used for the development of these ECUs by the manufacturer. When needed, GIAC emulates in real time with a professional engineering emulator, which allows 6 bit triggering and the ability to capture virtually any event while they run an ECU on a workbench. 4. GIAC then takes that source code and loads it into GIAC proprietary software "SHW version 8.02", where they can correctly modify any settings in the ECU. This makes GIAC different because they do not use commercial chip modifying software which can radically limit the tuning freedom needed to make a factory quality program. With a factory quality product, you will get silky smooth performance with stable power. GIAC can rewrite the code in SHW to modify anything. 5. GIAC designs and engineers in house all of their own printed circuit boards for encryption using advanced CAD software. They also write all of their own programs for encryption. This allows GIAC to get product to market much faster for a large variety of cars. It also protects GIAC software from increasingly common piracy found in the industry today. GIAC encrypts all of their chips to protect the cutting edge programming techniques they use. 6. GIAC's close ties with Bosch Gmbh ensures that their chips are state of the art. Why consider anything else? Please visit the GIAC homepage for even further information on GIAC and their state of the art technology. Their recent success in getting the legendary Porsche 959 to pass Federal emissions standards qualifies them as the industry leader.
