Ethanol is rocket fuel for your daily driver. Our TrueFlex flex-fuel conversion kit upgrades the factory engine computer to read and instantly adapt to any Ethanol blend, unleashing huge power.
FULL POWER ON ANY TRANSMISSION
2021+ model years and some 2019-2020 variations are equipped with a Gen 2 factory transmission control unit (TCU) with advanced factory security that locks them from tuning. Stock TCU tunes include software limiters that restrict engine power when torque limits are exceeded from ECU tuning. For Q5 models with locked TCUs, our calibration team has custom-coded the engine control unit (ECU) programming to properly manage torque signals to and from the transmission. This advanced strategy safely enables full horsepower and torque, even without a TCU tune.
Included on all stages and octanes.
