“My Goal was to achieve a very quick and reliable daily driver without attracting too much attention. First of all I have had my share of mechanics some are all promises and dont deliver others are great for stock work and still charge for it. Quattro Motorsport is in a league of its own. Honest advice without the fear factor added. Ed is an engineer so I trust him over most mechanics by a long shot. He cares about his work and reputation so he makes sure everything is A1 before delivering the car.
His custom tunes are amazing. He will listen to your goals and work towards achieving them with you. He does not undertake work if your car is not up to it. Try find someone to Install and tune a hybrid turbo like the Frankenturbo F23. It was impossible for me until I met Ed at Quattro Motorsport.”
“I had replaced my already upgraded K04 tune with a GT2871R turbo, and found that the improvement was so great, I was simply running out of injector capacity (couldn’t take it past 5000rpm). I hadn’t been able to find anyone who had a tuning option for my standard ECU (even though it already had a Giac chip for the K04) and was just about to fork out mega $ for an aftermarket ECU and dyno tune when I stumbled on Ed’s Quattro motorsports ad.
Ed provided specs for new fuel pressure, injectors and a new V8 MAF for me to arrange, and sent me a custom programmed re-tuneable factory ECU for my situation, that plugged straight in and fired up first time. He made sure he understood what I was trying to achieve, modified my tune to protect my engine which is still mechanically standard, and kept in touch to make sure it worked.
Ed offered to fine-tune the ECU as much as needed, but I didn’t really need it. Now that I have an easy tuning option, with the new ECU, and with the $ saved on the aftermarket ECU, I am building a stronger 2L stroked engine. I’m looking forward to working with Ed again on the re-tune once I have it together.”
“As for performance, Ed from Quattro motorsport has been working overtime perfecting my Stage 1+ Custom tune. Ed is definitely a perfectionist and we have gone through multiple revisions to get the very best from my car. I should make note Ed is tuning remotely (I’m in VIC, he is in NSW) so that has been a big disadvantage as he has never actually seen/tested my car.
Regardless it is amazing to see the difference custom tuning has over an Over-the-shelf tune such as APR/GIAC. Not saying these OTS tunes are bad, its more so Custom tuning is suited specifically for you engine and setup, meaning you get the most out of your car, you’re also not bound by the ‘stages’ that most brand tuners require.
I’ve had the privilege to test many of the OTS tunes and compare, so I’m speaking from my personal experience not from what I’ve read. Ed’s customer support and help have been second to none, he has helped me iron out/diagnose countless issues that I probably should’ve been charged for haha. His motivation to get things running perfect has been much appreciated and I am one happy customer.
Given the price that Quattro motorsports custom tuning is now available at, anyone considering customised mod setups (such as a Frankenturbo) I highly recommend considering contacting Ed for tuning options.”
“I took my B5 audi to a so called “tuning expert”, who had it for 12 months and could not get the job even close to the mark. Everyone said you simply can’t tune that model, too hard, and I even spoke via email to top tuners in the USA, Germany, and the goose that had it before is German! Also, Queen street customs spoke to their tuner, and was told it can’t be done.
Then having come across Ed from Quattro motorsport, I knew from our first phone call that this guy knew exactly what he was talking about.
Ed is a must for anyone seeking to tune an Audi, as from my experience, no one has been able to do the job, so that obviously puts him way ahead of the others. He simply has what the rest lack.
After some phone calls and a couple of visits to Ed at Quattro Motorsport, my Audi is a weapon, smacking the pavement with 300 horsepower at the front wheels, and that is still not its limit, but all that I wanted.
For anyone that wants an intelligent, honest, and a darn nice bloke, to tune their vehicle the way it is supposed to be done call Ed, I can’t recommend him highly enough.”
“Good news! The ECU works fine. The engine is running now. Whew! Thanks a lot for your help. I would surely recommend you to my fellow European Audi owner.”
“Hi Mate, just been for a spin, it’s a lot different, so much more power down low, it’s bloody awesome! Good work and thanks mate, very happy with it!. Nice and smooth, good response and pick up, very good“
