I guess I waited all this time for no reason. I guess its time to move on to new and better things.
That means you will actually have to install something though.....

this isnt SSTT2, there arent done with that yet.
isnt SSTT suppose to be a reliable,easy to use tune, isnt that its market, i dont seem very sad about this, there is so many options on the market for higher HP and such, im glad there is a company that sells reliable,safe, undetecable easy to install/uninstall products.

What happens if you forget and set it at 95 and then put in 91 octane? Is there risk of engine issues or just less than desired power?

I never had a problem installing stuff. I had many cars before, which made me get hands on. I even did my 351w twin turbo setup on my 95 cobra on my own. Its not the issue of going into the cars comp( piece of cake ), its the whole reason why i got this car, so i dont have to mess around with things.

But i guess i got to point that I cant avoid it.

seems strage there is a stock, 91, 95+ choice of settings, skipping an optimized 93 choice, which is the gas that a ton of us have access too.

bad marketing technique, they should check out goapr.com all of their audi software upgrades have a 91 mode, 93 mode and 100 octane mode.

Why would you combine 91 and 93 ?? its either going to 91 or 93 and if your at the strip, 100 oct race gas is available.

Not only that, but it would be intelligent to have a dedicated 93 and 91 octane tune so that you can get the most out of your 93 octane BUT also, if you get a bad tank of gas, which happens to all of us eventually, you can then pop it to the 91 and you'll be safe, while not going all the way to "bone stock". This is how my Cobb tune worked on my last car. Granted, that was a flash, but same idea.

Id rather have a 91, 93, race (95+ or 100) than no boost + pump + race.

Would really depend on ambient temperature. But with all things being equal you can figure about 13HP and 15Ft Lbs of torque on a 75 degree day. It was very hot on our test day so we will run it again when its cooler. To stay safe we are not increasing the boost that much over the standard SSTT. But the difference in feel of the car is frankly astounding! Of course the new exhaust adds another 6-8HP but the sound is what gets ya!

Now we are going to make a similar exhaust for the 335's and then the X6.


Imagine a SSTT with a 2 foot harness and our factory connectors at one end. There is 2 screws on the box that you remove and inside you will find a dial to turn with several positions. No extra boost, 91 octane, 95+ octane.

In good temperatures the unit produces a max of about 1/2 a lb more than the SSTT. Fueling is handled the same way as the SSTT and so far there are not detection issues with this unit on the V81 DME as tested on our 135 with that DME.


This unit is a completely new unit. I do not have pricing on it yet. But those who want to run this will need to sell their old ones. Luckily from what I see on ebay pricing is still holding very well around 400 or more used. But please understand this is not the SSTT 2 that we had envisioned that unit we hope to get out soon and it will be a separate control device as we always thought so will work with the Plus.

We expect many folks to hang on to their older units. Only time will tell how many of you might switch over to the Plus. I for one love it on my car and the feel on 93 or higher octane is simply amazing.

AS soon as I have pricing I will post it.

Why does anyone bother posting dynos where a direct comparison cannot be made???
How do we know exactly how much of a hp/tq increase can be "solely" contributed to the SSTT Plus???
Please give forum members a bit more credit, then to assume that we just look at the graphs and not the details...
