Default Ed - HiTech Tuning

Ed made me love my car again.

I've been battling shifting issues with my A6 for 3 years. THREE YEARS. Contacted numerous tuners during this time who tried and failed or straight up blew me off. The car would always hunt around to find a gear in my 07 A6 (heads, cam, stall, gear) and would absolutely drive me nuts. Most of the tuners said that's just how a modded A6 is but Ed disagreed. He found the magic bullet with changing the OS, customizing it, and making it perform exactly how I wanted it to from the get-go. The car feels incredible and I have him to thank with the countless tinkering he did to get it there.

I can't thank him enough and he's absolutely awesome to deal with and was very patient with me. Thanks, Ed @ HiTech!

I think he is probably the best tuner in the U.S or at least in the top 3. He knows his STUFF

I have nothing but the highest praise for Ed. He tuned my 05 GTO years ago.

Ed is currently tuning my car...

Quick question... how long did it take for him to respond between data-log files and revised tunes for you guys?

SPEED SAFE, NICK

It's a mail order tune, I send him a data-log file, he tweaks the tune accordingly and then he sends a revision and I data-log it... we go back and forth till its dialed in. So far we are really only on the 2nd tune file and it feels good...

Apparently he took a much needed vacation so Ill have to wait till he gets back before we continue. But I will admit, so far so good.

SPEED SAFE, NICK

He is slammed right now, but it's worth waiting for. I'm waiting on another just because I want it perfect and I'm high maintenance lol.

Default Ed is da man

Ed tuned my 06 a6 vette and it responded very well. I added headers, varaam snake charmer, picked up 45 horses with his tune. the tranny tune knocked my socks off, man does that thing shift. I'm getting a ported fast intake soon and then I'm going back to see Ed.

Ed is great at what he does....he's usually pretty quck about getting back to you with responses/new tunes once you send him a datalogs.

I would not hesitate to use Ed in any way shape or form.

Am I incorrect to say Ed with HiTech is based in Australia?

Please excuse my ignorance but are we talking about HiTech Motorsports or HiTech Tuning?

Sorry folks, I do not feel if I have had a complete day unless I make a jackass out of myself at least 2 or 3 times a day.

Does Ed use DiabloSport tuners? Can I send him a log file from a DS InTune and have him do his magic? I too have an A6 tranny and would love to get the lag out.

Thanks
