IE ECU Tunes for your 2015-2021 VW MK7 or Audi 8V 1.8T (MQB) is the best bang-for-your-buck performance modification you can make for your turbocharged engine. Add serious horsepower and torque in minutes and unleash your engine’s performance potential while maintaining factory reliability and comfort. Upgrade your engine today for instant fun and excitement to your commute or the track!
IE’s Stage 1 ECU Tune delivers an instant increase in performance, leaving no hidden power on the table. In only minutes, Stage 1 will safely max out the factory turbocharger, horsepower, and torque output on entirely stock hardware or maximize the tune with optional bolt-ons (intake, turbo inlet, intercooler).
IE Stage 2 software extracts additional power and maxes out the factory turbo by utilizing an upgraded downpipe and performance hardware. Complete hardware upgrades for stage 2 will increase airflow and exhaust flow, reduce turbine backpressure, lower intake air temps, provide faster IAT recovery, and produce a much more efficient and dramatically faster vehicle than the stock hardware and tune.
Upgrading from Stage 1 to Stage 2 or beyond is easy! With IE, you only pay the difference in tune cost with no extra fees. When you install the required matching hardware, follow the link on your IE POWERlink software to purchase the tune upgrade, and you will be blowing away the competition in minutes!
