It would be a ballache but to me a better way of doing the conversion not keen on qpeng.

The setup they do for the 1.8t misses out too many sensors for me, running a turbo with no knock sensor is plain daft.

Given the choice I would always try and use oem ecu set up.

the TFSI motor is allways running right at the limute.  the power and thermal efficency as well as the emissons performance it delivers demands that, i think the tune would only have to a littel bit off for it to all go BOOM,  the std ecu also one hell of a powerfull box
