Great video!! I see a lot of peoples B9 dyno videos and have never seen this level of information. I love to see the comparison between different tuning companies. It is interesting to see how the different companies offer tuning strategies. I really like seeing the graphs with the HP change at different RPM's along with the boost pressure. I use 034 for my S5 Sportback.
MMM delicious data. What's your opinion on running those boost pressures over the life of the vehicle? 25+ lbs seems like a lot but I haven't been in the game too serious for many years, you think the powertrain will last 100k miles or should you expect to start needing parts within 30-50k?
The B9 3.0 is a really strong engine, its had many years of maturation. There are plenty of people on the Audiworld/Audizine forums that have been running extra boost for years with no problems. The engine and transmission (ZF8) are definitely not the weak points in the configuration. The small stock turbo is.
@@gravitycat7874 that's why one of the first mods recommended for the 3.0 is always a larger intercooler. Quite possibly the weakest link in the setup is the laughably small OEM intercooler that comes on the S4/S5. That and a larger turbo inlet helps dramatically.
@@anthonywallace319 good to know. I've been debating tuning up my s5 sportback but it's my daily and didn't want to sweat problems down the road. I have other project cars that need my attention, don't want to worry about the DD giving me beef later on in it's life.
I’m about to start modding a 21 S5 sportback I just picked up. Was thinking my first mods were going to be a 034 tune, IE intercooler and 034 intake with inlet pipe. Trying to stay around $2,800 or so
Yes thank you for your help,I own a 2021 rs5 sportback as a former technician on cars I needed the numbers to make decisions on my car thank you very informative,ignition timing is the determining factor too much you burn up the engine 9 degrees on 034 made my choice for me 034 is the safest tune
I have an RS5 B9 with IE stage 1 ecu 93 with stage 1 tcu and its wicked. Had stage 2 tcu and was way too aggressive even in the least aggressive setting for the tcu tune. For the track its probably great but I don't track it
@@boostdynamictuning I understand what you were trying to do. I just bought a 2022 RS5. I saw this and wanted to know which tune would be better overall. As the creator you should make the call and say which tune you think is the best. Some people care about specific details as to which tune is better from 0 to 60, which is better for launching, which is better at top end. When you mentioned the dyno possible errors I didn’t know what to think. Make the call on what you think is best. That’s what some of us want to know.
@@synergy2782 totally understand, I really was trying to not call out some companies on issues. If you want the truth, personally I think BDT has the best drive ability, best safe reliable power, and best bottom end punch that holds you to your seat. Only issue is BDT doesn't offer on the fly map changing. That's in the works. 034 has a great tune, but I didn't like when I was driving that all the power was only in the top end. Plus the tcu tune from 034 was wayyyy too aggressive for slow driving speeds. For example just driving out of my parking devision I was getting a kick back from the car shifting while going 10/20mph. Kinda like someone hit me from behind. As for IE, It's a well rounded tune, except some cars experience this back and forth kinda like drive train slop. The tune is actually the issue from the oem tune. 034 fixed this issue, and so did BDT. Transmission tune from IE was there, but nothing extraordinary in my opinion. There you have it, the blunt truth behind all the tunes.
@@boostdynamictuning you did do a great job being more than fair to the other tuners. If you have the best tune and you call it as you see it, I don’t see that as calling anyone out when you are speaking facts based on data. I spend a ton of money on cars and performance upgrades and I want the absolute best.
@@synergy2782 well most people view it as cocky, or biased view. I'm a data driven guy, so I can provide data to back these faqs up and let the custom decide which tune is best suited for them. Personally I really really focus on smooth driveability, but when you hit the throttle I went to be thrown back in my seat. BDT delivers this on everyone of our tunes. You can see in previous videos of other companies how I give people that punch in their seat that they're looking for.
I don't believe so, later in my career, yes. There's not enough rs5's in my area to see the reason for development. Now, if someone wants to drop one off, I could easily make a tune. It's an mg1 ecu, I'm very familiar with this ecu structure as it's in the S5.
In dyno mode usually it over rides adaption and puts it to set power. Instead of slowly building up and adapting. The 1/4 times should tell if adaption helped the tune.
@@boostdynamictuning of course loved the video i just didnt know what stock was compared to all of those tunes. How much did the hp and tq change from stock. Thats what i was trying to find. Thank you
Yes, I thought a good question for someone that still has it stock. Somehow simple information could not be relayed but said to watch the video again; not helpful. If it was in the video, I missed it too. So, what is the stock horsepower and torque at peak and some other RPM readings?
What's strange about it? Look at the data logs, they're spiking less boost in the bottom end, and lower timing. This is a stage one tune. Personally they're just creating a very safe level of power, while waking the car up. Now their e85 will lay everything to rest. Video drops next week :)
DUDE! EXCELLENT VIDEO. You’ve just become my new favorite B9 Content creator! Can’t wait more!

thats y i love 034 nice and safe. keep my car alive👌
Finally, what is really the difference in power of these 3 tuners? Thank you for your answers ... 😉
can we please get stage 2 on 93 octane tune comparison? (BDT vs 034 vs IE) what 1/4 mile times, 0-100 times, 100-200 times?
Great video. Thank you for the info and all the work!
Thank you! Glad I could spread dome good info to the masses!
Great video, thanks for the comparison.
Thank you for giving the video a watch
Hey amazing video! where did you get that analog boost gauge and how is it connected? Thank you in advance!
Not sure if I missed it but in this B9 entirely stock for these runs?

@@andytran-ry7yc correct, a dyno measures at the wheels/hub

Nice vid bro
Can you do this same test against IEs new B9 RS5 tune and 034s tune ?

I’ve never been more confused in my life. Just keep it simple and show who is best .
Every tune is better in some ways. It's not about the power. People want to know the overall experience and that's what I was trying to provide .

Any plans for B9/B9.5 RS5 93/E85 tuning?

Isn't there a break in period for each tune? I know my car definitely got stronger as I drove it around a bit

Whats the stock hp and tq numbers
Did you watch the video? The faqs are in the video that you're asking for
My bad must have missed it

2:54 Color key is not consistent with computer screen.
Torque seems strangely low on the 034 tune.

What's wrong about it? I double checked and didn't see anything wrong
@@boostdynamictuning Teal and Light green is IE, Dark teal and purple is 034 , They are labeled wrong.
