I just bought a 2012 A4Q, Black/Black... Love it!!
optioned with pretty much everything.... :-)

First thing I had to do is Flash it with GIAC Stage2 software.
Wow, the power gain is rediculous! The car pulls real hard and very smooth. have driven 500 miles so far and am really enjoying this new car and the GIAC Software.

How much did it run you in total?

What kind of exhaust do you have on your car? It's stage 1 if you are running stock exhaust.

I'm having mine flashed this Saturday. GIAC stage 1 as I am running stock exhaust.

Giac has a stage 2 software that doesnt require additional hardware, they call it stage 2 minus

Do you mind provide the source to this info? I checked GIAC website as well as a GIAC dealer. They confirmed GIAC tune stage 2 requires an aftermarket exhaust.

Call Giac their number is on their website, just like the guy in first post he doesn't have exhaust.

This link is not on their site, stage 2 minus their stage 2 has nit been release, the boost is on the high end.

Some dealers don't know, and stage 2 minus doesn't show in Giac website

I just had my car flashed two hours ago. And yes, it's GIAC stage 2 minus and it was confirmed by the guy who did the flash on my ECU. The owner didn't know about this.

The car is faster than the stock flash and it should be a little quicker on a cooler day.

All the heat and humidity kill HPs & Torques.

I wonder what my next mod will be.

How much WHP/WTorques from the GIAC flash? I just want to see our numbers are the same.
