Default basic Tune for 3.15

Hello all

I use my car as a daily during the no snow months and plan on keeping my car stock. I have a A4 with 2.73 and currently the car is no faster than my 2014 Lincoln MKT 3.5 Eco boost,......... if it is I can't tell.
So I found a 3.15 Diff and plan on installing it in the spring. Now I know I need a tune due to the change and was wondering if there a basic/stock tune for cars that came with the 3.15s I can get.

There is a person/tuner that specializes in LS motors down the street from me (2 miles) if I have him do it what should it cost on a stock car?

Thanks for your time

Years ago, I bought a Diablosport handheld tuner. Right in the middle of uploading a tune into my 2000 A4 vert, my marginal car battery died (always have a small battery charger on your battery when doing this!!), and the car was dead in the water. I called Diablosport, and told them of the problem. I don't remember what I did exactly, but they made me a tune for the car for free. I had the G92, 3.15 gear standard on my car OEM. I may have had to pull the ECM/PCM and send it to them for it to happen. That was back in '03, or '04, and their company was probably a lot smaller. But they took care of it free!!! Stock tunes are a dime a dozen, and I'm sure they had them saved in their laptop, or whatever. Give them a call. All they can say is no!

I will reach out and ask,............. if I buy a hand held tuner from them that I can also use on my other cars I bet they would help me out for cheap.
Both my other cars have turbos and having a tuner would be fun. Thanks for the reply.
