Its versatility in the field of chiptuning allows you to modify the parameters of ECUs and TCUs, operating without limits. Choose the market niche in which you want to operate and manage recalibration with maximum efficiency and simplicity, thanks to constantly developed and updated Drivers.
Bosch ZF8HP55
Designed for large flagships, the ZF8HP torque converter is the technological evolution of the previous ZF6HP, that allows a significant reduction in fuel consumption thanks to the additional gears. Furthermore, the technological innovation of this transmission, due to structural modifications, reduces gear change times to up to 200 milliseconds, offering the possibility of non-sequential gear changes. In fact, it allows shifting from eighth to second gear when necessary.
Installed on high-performance vehicles with rear or all-wheel drive and longitudinal engines, this is the transmission of the iconic and ultra-high-performance Audi RS6 and RS7. The winning choice comes from the combination with the 4.0 V8 TFSI engine. In this specific case, ECM Titanium plays a key role in seeking extreme performance. Thanks to good recalibration, these vehicles can achieve significant performance increases for both the engine and the automatic transmission.
