However, any customization beyond the 4-week period or revision is an additional charge (Which is considered Advanced Tuning). To discuss your specific tuning needs and receive a quote, please contact a Sutphin tuning representative.
Full Custom Tuning ($450)
Sutphin Tuning offers Full Custom Tuning—a fully personalized approach built from a base file tailored to your specific vehicle and modifications. This option is designed for high-performance builds (typically 900HP / 800TQ and above) or for track-focused setups such as drag racing, road course or time attack applications where precision and control are critical.
Due to the level of expertise and time involved, all Full Custom Tuning sessions must be completed within 4 weeks of the purchase date or upon reaching 4 revision files, whichever comes first.
Tune Suggestions:
For Best Results use D3 and S3 under part throttle brake boosting in the range of 2800rpm to 3500rpm in 1st gear.
Normal 60ft times for stock turbos is in the range of 1.56 to 1.66 using brake boosting launch on normal street conditions.
S3 shifting options are True manual or Auto shifting at wide open throttle.
Product Highlights:
- Tuning for a superior driving experience.
- Tune is customized for stock, hybrid, and single turbo vehicles.
- Improved shifting in all modes, No jerky or harsh shifting.
- Optimized TQ Management to recover power that would normally be lost during shifting.
- Tuning allows for custom line and shift pressure for big HP power applications.
- The Built transmission may require extra revisions to smooth out a harsh shift or two which is common.
Recommendations:
- For Power levels of 650hp to 750hp and higher I recommend getting a built transmission.
- Recommended to use with Adrenaline ATF SS fluid, Amsoil ATF Blue Cap or Motul ATF VI changing fluid every 30k to 40k miles on tuned vehicles
