NEW: ANTI-LAG LAUNCH

Gain the boosted advantage with iE anti-lag launch and rolling launch control included on all stages. This custom-code fuel-cut launch strategy is safe on your engine and builds 10-20+ PSI of turbo boost for an extremely powerful launch. This eliminates lag and greatly reduces 0-60, 60-foot, and accleration times. Additonally, this feature includes rolling anti-lag that will hold a set RPM and speed while building boost for a rolling launch that will deliver a surge of power and the competitve edge in a roll-racing scenario.

STAGE 1

UP TO 361HP & 420FT-LBS TORQUE

iE Stage 1 ECU calibration dramatically increases performance leaving no hidden power oE Stage 1 ECU calibration maximizes performance by fully utilizing the factory IHI IS20 turbocharger’s horsepower and torque capabilities. Designed to work with entirely stock hardware and compatible with basic bolt-ons (intake, turbo inlet, intercooler).

Compatible with 100% stock hardware
Includes advanced TrueFlex ethanol (requires hardware)
RPM limit raised to 7000 RPM
91, 93, & 104 pump octanes available (95, 98, & 108 RON)
Road speed limiters removed
Includes anti-lag launch and rolling launch
Engineered for all climates and elevations

ANTI-LAG & ROLLING ANTI-LAG LAUNCH REQUIRES iE DSG TUNE

STAGE 2

UP TO 394HP & 448FT-LBS TORQUE

iE calibrators employ advanced tuning strategies to harness additional power and account for increased flow from an upgraded downpipe and matching performance hardware. Required hardware upgrades for Stage 2 increase airflow, exhaust flow, lower intake air temperatures, provide faster IAT recovery, and result in a more efficient and faster vehicle on the stock turbocharger.

Maximizes stock turbo power output
Includes advanced TrueFlex ethanol (requires hardware)
91, 93, & 104 pump gas fuel maps
Requires downpipe upgrade
Exhaust crackle feature unlocked

Upgrading from Stage 1 to Stage 2 or beyond is simple with iE! You only need to pay the price difference between the tunes with no additional fees. Once you’ve installed the necessary matching hardware, just follow the instructions on your POWERlink app to purchase the tune upgrade, and you’ll be outperforming the competition in minutes!

STAGE 2 IS38

UP TO 420HP & 474FT-LBS TORQUE

iE Stage 2+ IS38 takes power to the next level by incorporating the larger IHI IS38 turbocharger found on the VW Golf R or Audi S3. This larger factory turbo is a direct bolt-on upgrade, delivering additional boost and larger power gains when combined with full Stage 2 hardware and tuning.

Requires factory Golf R/S3 IHI IS38 turbocharger
Includes advanced TrueFlex ethanol (requires hardware)
91, 93, & 104 pump gas fuel maps
Stock downpipe file available

STAGE 3

UP TO 462HP & 456FT-LBS TORQUE

Specifically designed for the VW/Audi MQB platform, this bolt-on turbo provides a significant power increase with a much broader powerband that pulls all the way to the redline, far surpassing the factory IS20 or IS38 turbos. This advanced ECU calibration, combined with the Garrett turbocharger, HPFP (fuel pump) upgrade, and Stage 2 hardware (intake, intercooler, and downpipe), delivers incredibly fast performance and exhilarating driving fun.

ADDITIONAL TUNE FEATURES

HIGH & LOW TORQUE FILES

High-torque ECU calibrations maximize power gains throughout the entire powerband which quickly exceeds the torque limitations of the factory DSG calibration (auto trans) or the stock clutch (manual trans). To avoid clutch slip, iE Stage 1 & Stage 2 (non-IS38) tunes include low torque files for vehicles with stock DSG tune or stock clutch.

Low and high torque files included with Stage 1 & 2 tunes.

EXHAUST CRACKLE

Exhaust Crackle feature adds an addicitng motorsport-inspired crackle sound to your exhaust note when you let off the accelerator or downshift above 3K RPM. This feature is active in Sport Mode or Sport Manual Mode so you can enjoy this feature when you want, and stay civil when you need it.

Exhaust Crackle is included on stage 2 and higher tunes.

INCREASED RPM

To take advantage of the new larger power band, factory rev limits have been raised to 7000RPM in all stages. On DSG equipped cars, the transmission will shift slightly before the new engine RPM (6900RPM).

DSG Tune is required to unlock higher RPM.

HARDWARE GUIDE

Unlock the full potential of your ECU tune with our comprehensive range of iE hardware upgrades. Each tune stage is designed to work seamlessly with optional or required hardware, maximizing the enjoyment of your 2.0T engine. While Stage 1 doesn’t require any hardware upgrades, adding our intake, turbo inlet, and intercooler will result in increased airflow, lower intake air temperatures, and quicker heatsoak recovery, leading to a more efficient and faster vehicle.
