ECU tuning can be installed through the following methods
1) Purchase a flashzilla V3 from our website https://malonetuning.com/products/item/flashzilla-v3
2) Contact and book an appointment through a distributor https://malonetuning.com/dealers
3) Bench flashing: The ECU must be shipped in or tuned by a distributor with bench tools. This is not recommended as they can easily be tuned through the diagnostic port.
DSG tuning can be installed through a distributor, or we can send out a rental tool for 50 with a 1000 deposit. A windows 7 or newer laptop will be required. Please contact us for more info.
