Got the AA Stage 2 tune for my N51
I finally decided to do the AA tune for my car this week and I have to say it definitely made a difference in terms of getting rid of the hesitation when stepping on the gas!
Thanks to Pete at Works Motorsports in Sonoma Raceway for doing the work. Looking forward to getting the car on the dyno and seeing exactly how much the difference is now. |

I have the N51 as well, and have noticed some of the hesitation you mention. What other thoughts do you have about it so far?

Tune + Headers seems to be the biggest output power-wise for AA. They highly recommend it. As with any tune, supporting modifications help greatly. Maybe not so much considering this is a NA engine and these mods significantly help a turbocharged engine more so than they would a NA engine.
If you have a better flowing intake, exhaust to go with this tune it should react nicely, regardless of headers.

From driving around these last few days, the acceleration feels more linear where as before there was a brief delay when I stepped on the gas. Also the car just feels faster especially around 3000 RPM. |

I don't think I can go catless unless I somehow get around CA emissions. I have not done anything with the headers and exhaust yet especially with that new exhaust law here.
