DTUK FSR
« on: 10 May 2015, 19:08 »
Hi
Can anyone who has a DTUK FSR unit tell me if it's easy to connect/disconnect, for before and after dyno runs?

Thanks
Chris.

Yep, really easy. They send you a blanking connector that goes on the end of the loom in place of the box. If you put that in the car behaves exactly as stock.

Great thanks. Considering one of these with forum discount. Do you have one. Do you rate it?

Thanks

I have one and would definitely recommend it. Mine's a PP model but the gains over stock are very similar on the non PP model too.

I'm running mine in 30 degree heat at the moment with no issues so go for it!

No dyno plots I'm afraid - Dyno's are few and far between out here.

However the 'Butt dyno' is very impressed. Be aware that you will never get the outright gains of a remap, but it's not far off (and you'll not get the TD1 flag that some have reported with remaps).

It actully doesn't feel fast (in comparison to my previous 280BHP Astra VXR) until you look at the speedo and realise you're doing way more than you thought you were!

The box will still leave traces of being fitted so if vw look hard enough they can still see. They won't look that hard though but nothing is undetectable.

Assuming you make sure the ignition is off when you fit/remove it (to ensure no error codes are thrown up), there should be no traces of it ever being there, surely?

Happy to be corrected though!

if you disconnect the box when the ECU is/was still live then a soft code will be registered that VW can/could see. This is no different to a code that would be flagged if a sensor had taken a wobbly.. The only thing VW/Audi are interested in where warranty is concerned is TD1..
