This 2011 Audi A7 with the 3.0 TDI CDUC engine had previously received an engine calibration elsewhere. On the dynamometer, the factory software produced 219 hp and 455 Nm, while the previous calibration produced 240 hp and 586 Nm. The quoted factory ratings are approximately 245 hp and 500 Nm.

AutoChip developed a new engine calibration and reprogrammed the automatic transmission, adjusting its limits and shift settings. After tuning, the dyno recorded 258 hp and 610 Nm. Both power and torque were higher than in the initial dyno run.

A larger front-mounted intercooler had been purchased for the car, but its installation and further testing were planned for later. The result shown in the video was recorded before that intended hardware change.
