== Overview ==
HP Tuners allows the end user to edit the calibration tables in their ECU. You are provided a stock file when you first connect to a controller.
 HP Tuners launched support for the Simos 18 in September of 2020. As of writing HP Tuners officially supports:
* 2013-2019 Golf GTI and Golf R 2.0 TFSI
* 2013-2019 Audi A3 and Audi S3 2.0 TFSI
* DQ250_0D9 6 Speed Dual Clutch Transmission
* DQ250_02E 6 Speed Dual Clutch Transmission

A 2017 Golf Sportwagen 1.8 TFSI has been successfully licensed and flashed, but is not listed on the HP Tuners support vehicles page.
 
 
HP Tuners Website: [http://hptuners.com hptuners.com]

== Cost ==
HP Tuners users purchase an MPVI2 cable starting at $299.99 and load the device with credits costing $50 each. Credits are spent the first time the user attempts to write a new controller and are locked to one specific controller by serial number. The controllers listed above cost 4 credits each.

== Datalogging ==
While HP Tuners provides a datalogging component, it currently lacks loggable parameters that would make tuning a non-factory turbo possible.

== User Defined Parameters ==
HP Tuners allows loading of a TunerPro .xdf file in order to edit tables and parameters that are not in the definition provided by HP Tuners. Definitions are specific to a controller’s software version so a definition file for the specific vehicle being worked on are extremely helpful. Enabling user defined parameters is an additional feature that costs $179.99. This is licensed to an MPVI2 cable and can be used on multiple controllers.

__NOTOC__
The SimosWiki

This site is dedicated to tuning the Simos(18) family of ECUs commonly found in the MQB platform of VW/Audi cars.

Much of the information here revolves around the use of Eurodyne Maestro since it was the first end user tuning software available. Eurodyne does change some maps and axis names, but the vast majority of ecu strategies are kept consistent with the way Continental designed it. An example of where there's a change in the software is the Boss file wastegate duty tables. The factory uses a complex scheme to calculate the exhaust flow vs Boost, while Eurodyne changes this to use a simple RPM vs. Boost level. Examples of the two different tables are on the [[Eurodyne_Tables|Eurodyne Maestro Tables]] page.

THIS WIKI IS A WORK IN PROGRESS. We went live with it on 9/21/2020, and we're working on getting info in place.

Exley: /* Calibration Tables */

= Calibration Tables =
== Driver Requested Torque ==
=== Max Torque 0-2 Power Class 0-4 ===
'''Location: Engine → Torque Management → Driver Demand'''
 
These tables serve as both a maximum torque limit and the main input into the driver requested torque calculation for a given RPM and Gear. Testing can be done to see which tables are used in a specific calibration or they can be made all the same for a consistent torque request.(More testing needed to confirm) Three sets of tables are present, one for automatic transmissions, one for manual, and one for Eco mode.

=== Torque Percent High / Low / Transmission ===
'''Location: Engine → Torque Management → Driver Demand''' 
Lookup table for requested torque percent based on RPM and pedal percent. This percentage is applied to the max torque table. The output of this calculation is driver requested torque. Multiple tables are used depending on transmission type, vehicle speed, and sport mode selection.
[[File:Driver Demand.png|800px|none|driver demand]]
[[File:Torque Request.png|800px|none]]
 
=== See also ===
* [[Eurodyne_Tables#Maximum_Clutch_Torque|Eurodyne Tables - Maximum Clutch Torque]]

== Fuel Enrichment ==
=== Target Lambda at Full Load ===
'''Location: Engine → Fuel → Power Enrich'''
 
Values in this table are the target lambda while in full load enrichment. The x axis is engine RPM and the y axis is the time elapsed since meeting the conditions for full load enrichment. Many stock calibrations have this value set to stoich or near stoich and rely on Component Protection enrichment tables to provide extra fueling. Component Protection entry is controlled by the modeled value of exhaust components.

=== Power Enrichment Pedal Threshold ===
'''Location: Engine → Fuel → Power Enrich'''
 
This table serves as an entry point for the Target Lambda at Full Load table. When pedal percent is greater then the values in this table, Target Lambda at Full Load will be used for fueling.
[[File:PE Tables.png|800px|none|Power Enrichment]]

=== See also ===
* [[Eurodyne_Tables#Fueling|Eurodyne Tables - Fueling]]

== Spark Advance ==
'''Location: Engine → Spark → Advance'''
 
Simos ECUs contain several spark tables broken into two main groups, Base and MBT. The car will attempt to run the values in the base spark tables before any modifiers (IAT, knock retard, learned adaptations). 
MBT tables contain values that reflect ideal timing for Max Brake Torque. These values reflect an ideal situation not limited by environmental factors. The MBT values are also used in calculating delivered torque and therefore should be modified with caution.
 
Table selection is farther broken down by the state of the: Port flaps, Valve lift system, intake cam phase angle, exhaust cam phase angle. Cam angles are assigned an arbitrary number (0-2) using the VCT → Intake/Exhaust Cam Map tables.
