Hello everyone, I wanted to ask if it is possible to chip VAG cars using the ODIS program or maybe there is some other program for chipping VAG and which device is better for this?

The VAG concern produces many different cars: gasoline engines, diesel engines and hybrids.
As dear baner said, you need to know what we are talking about, what kind of car.
ODIS will not help.
For the EDC/MED16 series, KESS (reading and writing via OBD) basically does an excellent job - not an advertisement.
For the EDC/MED17 series, it is necessary to remove the ECU and perform the procedure "on the table" (stand). In this case, you will need more expensive equipment and related software - there is a lot of it and it depends on "how much money you are willing to pay" (for the equipment).
ODIS is VAG diagnostic software and is not intended for chip tuning.

So maybe you know of any other chip tuning programs. Just for simple tuning. Or don't they exist?
 
The most important thing is to know which engine control unit ECU needs chipping.
 
ODIS can overwrite the ECU, but cannot configure the ECU parameters.

I would recommend first seeing where you can get good engine field map optimization files optimized for your engine, and then learning how to flash them, rather than changing individual values like boost pressure.
 
I would say "chip" is not the right word/term for tuning and modifications, ODIS is not meant for tuning anyway, so use other tools/software.
 
There are many devices that can modify, read and write ECU maps. The question is what year is the car and what type of ECU does it have. Give an example of a car, then I will advise what equipment you can buy.
 
WinOLS is good, lots of tutorials on YouTube.
