IE's performance EA837 ECU calibrations for the Audi B8/B8.5 and C7 3.0T TFSI engines fully release the power potential without sacrificing reliability or comfort. Thousands of street, dyno, and track miles were torture tested to ensure maximum performance without sacrificing safety. Let your S4, S5, A6, A7, or SQ5 put a smile on your face and experience the power and thrills from your new tune as it transforms your car into a supercharged beast!

3.0T SUPERCHARGED STAGE 1

IE Stage 1 ECU calibration dramatically increases performance with up to 416HP & 391TQ, transforming your supercharged 3.0L into a truly performance-classed vehicle. Engineered to operate on entirely stock hardware and compatible with basic bolt-ons (intake, exhaust, heat exchanger) without the need to retune.

STAGE 2 SINGLE PULLEY

Stage 2 single pulley files are calibrated for a smaller press-on supercharger pulley delivering up to 492HP with minimal hardware upgrades. The single pulley ratio is achieved by driving the supercharger faster via the smaller pulley.

STAGE 2 DUAL PULLEY

Go all out and maximize the full power potential available from the factory supercharger with a stage 2 dual pulley setup. The maximized dual pulley ratio can be achieved by combining the smaller 57.5mm press-fit supercharger pulley with a 188mm crank pulley -or skip to dual pulley in one product with the single 207mm overdrive crank pulley for up to 548HP! 

DUAL PULLEY E40 ETHANOL

Ethanol contains tons of oxygen, burns cooler, and has a high resistance to knock. This provides the tuning potential for a massive horsepower and torque gain over running conventional gasoline and is more readily available (in most states) and less expensive than race gas. The factory fuel system with an upgraded HPFP (high pressure fuel pump) can support a maximum mix of 2/5ths E85 and 3/5ths 91/93 premium gas to produce an E40 ethanol blend delivering up to an intense 548HP & 525ft-lbs of torque!

INCREASED RPM

The powerband has been optimized To take advantage of the new boost curve and pulley ratios. The RPM limits are raised in all gears to 7200RPM on stage 1 & stage 2 single pulley tunes and 7350RPM on dual pulley. DSG-equipped cars will shift slightly before the new engine RPM limits.

DSG Tune is required to unlock higher RPM.

2-STEP LAUNCH CONTROL

2-step is an advanced motorsport ECU calibration feature built into the ECU software. This drag racing style launch will dramatically increase your 60 foot and acceleration off the line by building engine load and boost from a stop providing a large advantage over similarly powered vehicles in a competitive scenario.

Available upgrade for single pulley tunes and included with with dual pulley files.

OPTIONAL EXHAUST CRACKLE

Give your supercharged engine an aggressive sporty sound. Turning on the exhaust crackle gives your 3.0T a head-turning performance exhaust overrun when you rev, decelerate, or let off the throttle for gear changes.

Optional feature included with stage 2 single and dual pulley tunes. For the most aggressive pops and bangs, aftermarket downpipes or catback exhaust is recommended.

FUEL DRAIN OPTION

Higher octanes such as 100, 104, and ethanol offer a huge bump in power for race days but can be expensive or hard to mix for everyday driving. To make swapping fuels easier, IE has included a nifty feature that allows you to drain your fuel tank to the last drop. Simply connect a few feet 5/16” fuel hose to the feed line under the engine bay and hit the drain button in the extras menu on the IE POWERlink Flash Wizard software. Available for all ECU stages.

Fuel drain is an advanced racing function, use fuel safe practices anytime you work with fuel or fuel lines.

MANUAL FAN CONTROL

Keeping the supercharger cool in between runs is the key to staying competitive and in optimal power in a drag racing scenario. To help reduce temperatures while staging, IE's optional fan control feature allows you to run the fans and coolant pump at full power on demand using the cruise control stalk. Simply flip the radiator fans to full power to pull heat out of the supercharger and effectively lowering intake air temperatures before the next run.

Currently available for B8.5 and C7.5 (facelift non-CREC) models only.

CATALYST OPTIMIZED EGT

Even on completely stock cars, the factory catalytic converters (CATs) are a known failure point of the 3.0T platform leading to costly repairs or possible engine damage. IE's pump fuel (91 & 93) files for all stages are specially calibrated with the safest possible air to fuel mixtures to inhibit knocking and to provide cooler exhaust gas temperatures. Going this extra mile adds an additional layer of protection for the fragile catalytic converters not found in many competitor tunes. Race fuel files, launch control, and exhaust crackle features are intended for motorsports use and may reduce catalytic converter safety.

TCU Tune:

The IE DSG Tune for your Audi B8/B8.5 S4/S5 3.0T delivers increased power, higher RPM limit, faster shifts, optimized shift points, adjustable launch control and additional transmission performance features when paired with a matching ECU tune. Acceleration times will greatly improve turning your tuned 3.0T into a fully rounded performance monster.

WHAT DOES A DSG TRANSMISSION TUNE DO? 

IE’s Audi S4 (DL501 S-Tronic) DSG tune is all-inclusive and does not offer expensive upgrades. That’s right, there are no unnecessary upgrade charges and all features and upgrades are included at one low cost. A great deal of sportiness is added to the tune while maintaining factory smoothness and driveability that you love about the S4. More aggressive launches and faster shifts are guaranteed to put a smile on your face. Also, expect acceleration and 0-60 times to improve dramatically from a larger useable powerband provided by the higher shift points. 

REQUIRED FOR SELECT ECU TUNES

Required for S4 & S5 Stage 2 dual pulley files, your new transmission tune will no longer lug the engine in drive mode or short shift the larger powerband. Clutch clamping forces are increased so the transmission can safely handle and deliver the increased power and torque. DSG tune requires a matching ECU Tune, do not install on stock ECU tunes. 

ONE TUNE FOR ALL STAGES

IE’s DSG tunes are all-inclusive without any expensive upgrades. That’s right, there are no unnecessary upgrade charges and all features are included from the outset for any level of hardware or ECU Tune Stage, one cost and you are covered for all and any future upgrades from Stage 1 to Stage 2 billion.
