Welcome to the F*$%ing show boys

I was a little bit discouraged by the lack of information and consensus in the stage 2 community project so i would like to try and give this a shot.

i would like to start a stage 1+ tuning thread for those of us out there that are still learning the whole tuning process, it would be appreciated if those with more experience would chime in and help us all out! as usual haha

To start I'm going to define what Hardware this thread will use to then in turn Remap its software (if your hardware is different please do not clutter this post)

Bosch 52# 550cc EV14 0280158117 (Cheap, Proven, and capable of more power if you desire later on to change your Turbo)
Upgraded DV (Aftermarket/TT225)
Intake (Optional and i use a typical hot air intake filter slapped right on that MF'r)

attached below are the XDF i use and the ORI Bin from the stage 1 community project as well as my current modified file for the stage 1+

I will have logs and more information on Monday, assume files are not checksummed, and untested (they are my own files tested and working well but flash at your own risk)

The mods listed above tuned to the highest efficienct power output, seeing as most people would be able to fit a set of EV14 550cc injectors (easy DIY overall, cheap, effective at getting the fueling dialed for the  power most would want from a reliable Daily driver) this keeps an easy baseline for a community project, I’m not sure if you’ve read the stage 2 thread but they never even agree on the hardware that makes up “stage 2” so it died, I would also like to revive that thread after this one sees some success, sorry if it was at all confusing based on the OP

yea if you could post some logs id love to see what's going on behind the scenes

I would guess, N75 pinned at 100% All the time and open loop boost control

post up your stock read and I'm sure someone smarter than I will be able to tell you if they are cross compatible 

This is my Full read file
My question is: Can I use B5Quattrolife stock data file for my car? The reason is lack of proper xdf for my flash file.

B5Quattrolife which engine do you have?
