All available tune stages include various octanes at no extra cost.
Using the IE POWERlink cable you can switch between octanes as needed such as high octane files for race day and regular pump octane on your commute.

IE tunes are calibrated to perform with IE brand hardware, performance results may differ when installing alternative brand parts.

Your factory TSI power plant is controlled by a very advanced Engine Control Unit (ECU). This complicated computer is loaded with maps and routines to operate your vehicle efficiently, however, much of the available performance is left on the table and the calibration is not written to take advantage of aftermarket power adders such as cold air intakes, intercoolers, donwpipes and turbo upgrades. IE's advanced ECU Tunes are extensively engineering to completely reverse-engineer the factory mapping and re-write new calibrations for ultimate performance without sacrificing factory comfort and reliability. These perfected ECU Tunes undergo thousands of hours dyno testing, street analysis, track days, altitude verification and more. Each test results obsessive revisions resulting in a rounded tune that will take your VW or Audi 2.0T TSI engine from "peppy" to "WOW"!

HOW DO I INSTALL THE TUNE?

IE's own in-house developed POWERlink cable and software gives you the freedom to quickly flash your car’s engine control unit (ECU) or transmission control unit (TCU) with your new IE performance tune. The cable simply plugs into your vehicle’s OBD-2 port, from there simply follow the on-screen directions to quickly upload the tune. Adding horsepower is as easy as clicking FLASH NOW!

The flash tool also grants instant access to upgrade tune stages, switch fuel octanes, flash back to stock, perform engine diagnostics, read/clear codes and gather high-quality operating data via logging.
PLEASE NOTE: Mobile phone app flashing support is unavailable for VW MK6 (EA888 Gen 1 & 2) generation 2.0T engines. These engine ECUs require a Windows 10 or newer laptop for tuning.

System requirements:
Laptop or tablet with Wifi connection and USB port running Windows 10 or above operating system required. Powered by 32 or 64 bit processor with 1.0GHz or greater and 4GB of Ram.

OPTIONAL TUNE FEATURES

• Exhaust Crackle
  Give your TSI turbocharged engine an aggressive sporty sound. This fun feature is guaranteed to put a smile on your face when you rev, decelerate, or let off the throttle for gear changes. This exhaust crackle is completely safe and entirely addicting. Optional feature included with stage 2 and K04 tunes.
• K04 Turbo
  Stage 2 completely taps out all the available power from the small factory BorgWarner K03 Turbo. Upgrading the turbocharger to a BorgWarner K04 boosts your car to the next level, delivering up to 391HP & 398TQ! IE's TSI K04 Turbo Tune has been obsessively perfected to unleash the full potential from your turbo upgrade while remaining factory-like comfort and reliability with your choice of 91, 93, or 100 octane. Get ready to spin those tires with an addictive power and torque gain!
• Stage 1 Manifold
  This free option is included with a Stage 1 Tune purchase and is for owners who have installed an IE Performance Intake Manifold (Sold Separately). IE Stage 1 Intake Manifold software fine-tunes the ECU calibration to match the manifold plenum and runner flow characteristics along with special tuning for the removed runner flaps. Even though tuning now matches higher flow characteristics of the intake manifold, performance numbers are still limited by the factory downpipe. Because of this, Stage 1 IM combination is only recommended for users who are planning on Stage 2 IM in the future, are trying to get rid of constantly failing runner flaps or cracking plastic manifolds, and building for improved engine bay looks.
• Stage 2/K04 Manifold
  Included with all Stage 2 & K04 Tune purchases, This manifold calibration is designed for customers looking to maximize the performance of the turbocharger with an IE 2.0T Performance Intake Manifold (Sold Separately). Like Stage 1 IM tune, this software fine-tunes the ECU calibration to match the manifold plenum and runner flow characteristics along with special tuning for the removed runner flaps. Results with a manifold deliver power gains across the powerband, fully realizing the 2.0T TSI K03 or K04 power potential.
