At TuneZilla, we strive for an OEM level of drivability and reliability. Our team of Calibrators from around the world painstakingly work to deliver repeatable performance on all of our base maps. One of the major differences between our tunes and most of our competitors tunes is our linear OEM like throttle response. Where some software tuners increase throttle response to mask the actual output of their tunes by giving a very peaky feeling under acceleration, our tunes are designed to make the most usable and consistent power curve possible to maintain a strong pull without a heavy fall off midway through the power band. All while generating peak power as early as possible in the RPM range. Most off the shelf tunes advertise an attractive peak power figure, but suffer from a sudden drop in torque and a lower torque curve throughout the remainder of the RPM range.

ADJUST TIMING TO OPTIMIZE HIGHER OCTANE FUEL
ADJUST BOOST REQUEST VALUES
INCREASE THROTTLE RESPONSE
OPTIMIZED FUEL TRIM ADJUSTMENTS

Feature
Details
Left Foot Brake Fix
Allows brake pedal and accelerator pedal to be pressed without cutting throttle/fuel.
Hard cut Limiter
Cuts fuel at a set RPM instead of the factory "soft" limiter which limits engine speed/revs at a set RPM
Recommended for track/race use only
when equipped with DSG the limiter will only work in manual mode if auto upshift is disabled

Custom Tuning starts at $1699. To get a more accurate cost on your custom tune, please create a ticket and tell us more about your build, and your specific modifications.
If you feel that our existing tune offerings will not work for your application or your intended use, you can request Custom Tuning. Custom Tuning must be requested through our Tickets, and you must provide vehicle information as well as hardware (upgrades) information. Once submitted, our team of calibrators will evaluate your request and determine if Custom Tuning can achieve your goals and if they are able, your Tune Request will be accepted.
Custom Tuning requires heavy participation from the Customer, either through an Authorized TZ Dealer or the Customer themselves. TuneZilla Calibrators will require that the vehicle has access to dyno time when needed, and data logging is required. If you are not comfortable with data logging, and if you may not be able to access a facility with a dyno (many facilities will rent dyno time) custom tuning may not be possible for you.
Custom Tuning vs. Off The Shelf Tuning
We understand that our end users have varying driving styles and build purposes, which is why we offer revisions on all of our Off-The-Shelf tunes. By offering Custom Tuning to our customers, we can be sure you are getting the most out of your vehicle with your specific parts upgrades. Our OTS (off-the-shelf) maps are tested in house with as many variables as possible to ensure even if you don’t want to customize your tune, your vehicle’s OEM sensors and adaptations will still be able to optimize our tunes to your region’s fuel and most bolt-on upgrades. Tune Revisions are not the same as Custom Tunes. See our Terms and Conditions for our re-tune policy (section 4b)
We believe it’s important for our customers to understand what is happening inside their engine so they can make informative decisions. Our LOG VIEWER automatically generates your vehicles data log .csv files into easy to read graphs which can then be viewed by our Calibrators to find areas of optimization on your vehicle. Not only can this data be used to optimize your tunes, but a lot of troubleshooting and diagnosing can be done by comparing requested data to actual data at a glance.
In many cases, custom tuning is not required. If you are unsure if you will benefit from a Custom Tune, you can reach out to our team and upload data logs for them to examine.

Engine Swap
The AISIN transmission is known for its durability and smooth operation, but from the factory, it’s heavily restricted to prioritize comfort and emissions over performance.At TuneZilla, we’ve re-engineered the calibration of the AISIN TCU to unlock its true potential — delivering faster gear changes, optimized shift points, and higher RPM capability while maintaining OEM-level drivability and reliability.
Description
Faster Gear Changes
Transmission shift times are significantly reduced, providing a crisp, performance-oriented feel during acceleration and manual shifting.
Optimized Shift Points
Gear shift mapping has been refined to hold gears longer under load, keeping the engine in the optimal power band for both daily driving and spirited use.
Raised Maximum RPM Limit
The rev limit has been safely increased, allowing full utilization of the engine’s power curve — particularly beneficial for tuned vehicles.
Improved Throttle Response
Gear transitions are smoother and more responsive, minimizing hesitation when accelerating or downshifting.
Enhanced Torque Management
Torque limiters have been recalibrated to work in harmony with ECU tunes, ensuring smooth and consistent power delivery across all gears.
Proper vehicle maintenance is essential before flashing any tune. Ensure that the transmission fluid is up to date, filters are clean, and there are no mechanical issues present. Running outdated or contaminated transmission fluid may result in improper performance or long-term wear.
