There seems to be a consensus on the 034 rear sway bar, I assume to reduce under steer?

Being that I might be able to get a deal on a tune from 034, do you know if theirs is comparable to the APR? In reality don't they all do the same thing?

yeah any OTS tune should be fine one may be slightly more powerful than the others but its all back and forth all tuners try and offer the best they can. the only super low/conservative OTS tune is Cobbs OTS tunes which is why if you go with COBB everyone recommends a stratified flash or pro tune done by them.

Ok, thanks for confirming.

Whats the approximate hp gain of these tunes? ~50hp?

For k03, I don't think pro tune is worth it unless you are doing some e85 mix or meth.
Just buy one of the aggressive ots tunes. The turbo is maxed out basically by all those guys. There isn't some hidden leftovers at this point. Its just the torque spike when it occurs.

APR claims
"Gains as high at 67-71 HP and 93-101 FT-LBS of torque"
Unitronic says
"45-60 HP and 73-88 FT-LBS"
Depends on if its 91 octane or 93 octane.


So yeah a safe bet to say about 50-60hp and 70-100 ft-lbs

My stratified tune came in around 240whp and 290wtq (virtual dyno)

We have 91 octane here and 50-60 hp/70-100 ft-lbs is plenty of a step up.
