    Default Tune for a new motor

    I will be putting a new 347 in my 99 SS A4 (cam 226/234 112). My heads will be 59cc which will put the comp ratio right about 11.3:1. My current tune is relatively stock. Will this be okat to run on a stock tune until I can get a WB O2 and get a good tune on it? If not what would you all recomcned for a safe tune?

    226/234... sounds like fun

    If it were me, I would avoid driving it until I had everything I need to tune. While I waiting for the WB, I would hit a lick on the idle.

    How big a shot you running (assuming you plan to spray it)?

    No spray is planned for now, It used to have spay on it..

    Unfourtanetly I cannot avoid driving it, casue it is my DD. My current motor is bad hence the reason I am replacing it.

    if you have to drive it, baby it, and remember to change the oil frequently
