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.

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

HP Tuners supports Mode $22 PID datalogging only at this moment. This is a SIMOS18 ECU limitation and would require an ASW modification to allow direct memory access logging.

As of 2/21/2021, they recently added many parameters to increase the functionality of VCM Scanner. The scanner is perfectly capable of tuning a stock-turbo setup, or possibly a mild hybrid turbo upgrade setup.

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.
