I guess I just figured with it getting so common now, they would have kits developed for even doofuses like me. DBW for dummies.


Jeff-
They have stuff for 1.8t and 2.0t motors, but you have to keep everything stock, the speed sensors, ABS and all that stuff. It just makes it really hard to utilize it for custom applications like we have. I'm sure it will be there in the future, but the liability is probably just to high for the re-programmer to feel comfortable with. Remember the Audi 5000s?
