Phone apps

Who has experience with any tuning phone apps? I have seen some on my phone ranging from $5 to $100. Are there any that are actually beneficial?

Tuning what, exactly? Do you have an example of such apps?

There's really nothing that can be done to an A32 that doesn't involve a reflash or at least a piggyback.

Very true I should have remembered all my reading on our ECU, I guess what i meant was more monitoring apps that will show A/F ratios or anything like that.

I've seen some that come with OBDII connectors but havent wanted to waste money on one if a VAFC or something of the sort would be better for just a little more. I'm not trying to do too much just would like a better insight on whats going on inside the engine. Here's one I googled http://www.autoenginuity.com/products-scantoolppc.html but I'm sure there are more out there like it.

Ohh I see, if that works then that would be awesome.
