Title: New To This Tuning Thing... Post by: audi_skydiver on November 05, 2009, 07:53:54 PM First off I want to say thank you to everyone who is doing all this hard work. I appreciate it.
I have been looking around these forums for a bit now and am wondering if you can tell me/point me to somewhere that will show what programs I will need to be able to successfully read/edit/write to the ecu. I have seen so many different things and am confused. Also i understand that you need a .xdf file for the different ECU versions? I have an 01.5 TIP s4 with the AA box. I want to disable the SAI system in it. What can I do to do that? If you guys can help me get started I would love to throw that info up on this site once i figure it out. I just need to know how to do everything safely. Thanks guys and I do appologize in advance if I am just not seeing what I need to see. Thanks and i want to help contribute to this as much as possible... especially since there don't seem to be any .bins or .xdfs for the AA box. Josh Title: Re: New To This Tuning Thing...

Thanks for the help. I am going to go out now and see if my cable will work with it... probably won't but we will see...
Josh Title: Re: New To This Tuning Thing... Post by: audi_skydiver on November 11, 2009, 01:51:25 PM Nope my cable didn't work with the programs i tried... I will just wait for Tony's to come out.

My flashing software should work with any FTDI USB cable. Hopefully I can release it in a couple weeks. Title: Re: New To This Tuning Thing... Post by: audi_skydiver on November 18, 2009, 11:12:50 PM Want to send me a beta version??? ;)

Title: Re: New To This Tuning Thing... Post by: TWiST on November 24, 2009, 03:00:00 PM I am extremely excited for this, I was just about to go to Neuspeed and flash my car and I thought lets see how things are progressing on this front!
Thanks for ALL of your hard work!!! Title: Re: New To This Tuning Thing... Post by: mightemouce on December 06, 2009, 12:24:32 PM I'm in the same boat as you with being new to the tuning and this site has been extremely helpful. I can't wait for Tony's software to come out and Thanks
Title: Re: New To This Tuning Thing... Post by: audi_skydiver on February 06, 2010, 05:40:03 PM Any word on the new program yet???
Josh Title: Re: New To This Tuning Thing... Post by: Tony@NefMoto on February 08, 2010, 05:02:59 PM Free software to flash your ECU should be done in the next week; fingers crossed. After that I will be working on a free data logger. After that, probably release a free basic map editor. Title: Re: New To This Tuning Thing... Post by: audi_skydiver on February 08, 2010, 06:54:04 PM Awesome! Sounds good!
Thanks for all the hard work! Josh Title: Re: New To This Tuning Thing...

After that, probably release a free basic map editor. I'm giddy as a schoolgirl at the prospect of some datalogging software because those bastards at APR refuse to sell me a registration file for ECUx. :( Sent you a PM on AZ a while back about this, but I'd love to do anything I can to help you get that out as soon as you can, beta-testing and bug reporting wise, if you want. Also willing to kick in a few bucks for the cause and I'm sure I'm not alone on that one based on the complete lack of a worthwhile datalogging option for the B5 S4. Donations always seem to work to keep the Android phone devs motivated. ;) Title: Re: New To This Tuning Thing... Post by: TWiST on March 09, 2010, 03:20:19 PM So what ever happened with your software Tony ? My S4 was out of commission for a while and I got her back on the road and ready to do some tweaking! I was hoping things had panned out here more 8)
