It is plug and play, minimal tuning?

 

APR was one of the first chip tuners offering the ability to switch chip programs in the B7. Their Directport switching allows the user to have multiple programs stored (and then selected) through the cruise control stalk of the vehicle. We chose to have 4 programs installed on Project B7 A4 – stock, 91 octane, 93 octane, and 100 octane. In our part of the country 91 is the highest octane available in premium form. There is 100 octane race fuel available though.

The Audi was chipped by the local APR dealer, Alex’s Autohaus, in Salt Lake City. Alex has many years experience in working on German cars of all types, and his staff was very friendly and professional throughout the upgrade. The chiptuning process seemed simple and straightforward. Alex pulled the car in the shop, plugged his flashloader tool into the OBDII port and began downloading the program from APR into the car. Once the download was completed we test drove the car and that was literally all there was to it. The entire process, test drive included, took about 2 hours from start to finish.
