C5Tuners
New to C5, just got in June. Looking for performance tuning improvement. Runs great at higher speeds, but slow launch. Does not want to even spin tires when trying to from dead stop, with traction control turned off? Any suggestions, not looking to do engine work other than planning a K&N Airintake install. Thanks.

You didn't say what you have, but I'm guessing that you have an A4 with the base 2.73 rear diff ratio. If so, your best bang for the buck, without doing engine mods, would be installing a 3.42 ratio rear. That, along with a performance tune, should make a huge improvement in acceleration.
