this vag edc suite works great for edc15+ version cars ecus 1999-2005 diesel cars at least.

You can and you should:
- Optimize egr at the moment I have fully turned it off
- Optimize pedal response the drivers wish make it slower for eco driving
- Optimize boost for each RPM levels (correct AFR for best efficiency)
- Optimize your IQ advance for each RPM levels and each IQ levels
- You can make more power without affecting the engine efficiency
- You can make constant IQ program for testing different aero or mechanical changes.
- Make custom launch control and different kind of rev limiters

- Mechanically tune best engine CAM timing aka torsion value for best efficiency

I have done in my cars propably closer to 5000km pure ECU program road testing trying to find most efficient setups for my diesels. If you have a car that have this ecu and own a flashing cable I am able to offer you a custom program.

My current AFR setup is 14.6% better than stock. I got it 4,2% better by optimizing quicly better boost levels for each RPM points. Propably still little room to improve there, but quite nice boost with little effort.
