IE's performance ECU calibration for the VW/Audi MQB 2.0T Gen 3 IS20 Turbo engine fully releases the power potential without sacrificing the reliability or comfort. Thousands of street, dyno, and track miles were torture tested to ensure maximum performance without sacrificing safety. Let your GTI, GLI, or A3 put a smile on your face and experience the power and thrills from your new tune as it transforms your car into a true turbocharged beast.
Your factory MK7 power plant is controlled by a very advanced Engine Control Unit (ECU). This powerful computer is loaded with complicated 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 more. IE's suite of ECU Tunes are born from extensive engineering and extreme development 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 dyno tests, street analysis, track days, altitude testing and more -each test resulting in tweaks and revisions to the calibrations. The end result is a finely tuned and optimized beast that will completely transform your vehicle to deliver that addictive power you crave.
Stage 1 is engineered to release hidden horsepower and torque on completely stock hardware. Obsessive development delivers power gains smoothly across the entire powerband without adding a single aftermarket part. For those wanting more out Stage 1, the choice between 91 & 93 fuel octanes is included and the ability to adapt to minor bolt-on modifications, such as an intercooler, intake, and turbo inlet pipe. Low torque (manual trans w/ stock clutch) and high torque (DSG trans or upgraded clutch) files are both available.
Stage 2 is calibrated to take your performance to the next level. By upgrading the restrictive factory downpipe you unlock the full power potential from your stock turbo engine. Required bolt-ons (downpipe, intake, and intercooler) can be installed over a single weekend to match the tune -instantly transforming your MK7 GTI/GLI, or 8V A3 from a peppy street car into a true motorsport monster with 327HP and 399TQ!
Stage 2 completely taps out all the available power from the factory IHI IS20 Turbo. Upgrading to an IHI IS38 Turbo boosts your car to the next level, delivering up to 415HP & 457TQ! IE's IS38 Turbocharger 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 104 octane, get ready to spin those tires with an addictive power and torque gain!
2019+ GTI is not currently supported for IS38 Tunes. -Coming Soon
