Integrated Engineering Stage 1 Performance ECU Flash Volkswagen Golf GTI MK7 2013+/Audi A3 8V 2014+

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.

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.

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.
