ECU Tuning Stages

Stage 1 ECU Tune

The IE Stage 1 ECU Tune is designed to maximize the performance potential of the factory Audi 4.0T engine and turbochargers without requiring additional engine hardware.

Advertised Stage 1 Performance:

• Up to 652 HP.

• Up to 760 lb-ft of torque.

Stage 1 increases boost pressure, optimizes engine calibration, and improves acceleration throughout the powerband.

The calibration is designed to operate with factory hardware while supporting compatible optional modifications such as an upgraded air intake, intercooler, heat exchanger, and cat-back exhaust.

Available Stage 1 fuel options include compatible 91-, 93-octane, and E85 calibrations.

Important: A matching IE DSG transmission tune is required for the Stage 1 ECU calibration.

Stage 3 RS7 Turbo Upgrade

For enthusiasts seeking additional performance, the IE Stage 3 RS7 Turbo Upgrade calibration is designed for compatible factory RS7 turbochargers installed on the Audi S6 or S7.

Advertised Stage 3 Performance:

• Up to 719 HP.

• Up to 768 lb-ft of torque.

The larger turbochargers provide an extended powerband, allowing the engine to sustain increased power toward redline while maintaining responsive boost delivery.

The Stage 3 calibration supports applicable pump-gas, ethanol, and race-fuel configurations, with maximum advertised performance achieved using the appropriate supporting hardware and fuel.

Stage 3 Highlights:

• Designed for compatible factory RS7 turbocharger upgrades.

• Extended powerband compared with the original S6/S7 turbocharger configuration.

• Strong power delivery toward redline.

• Minimal increase in boost lag, according to IE.

• Supports applicable 91- and 93-octane pump-gas configurations.

• Additional performance potential with compatible ethanol and race-fuel calibrations.

• Requires the correct Stage 3 hardware and matching transmission calibration.

Stage upgrades are available through IE's tuning platform, subject to current manufacturer pricing and upgrade terms.

E85 Ethanol Tuning

Integrated Engineering includes ethanol tuning options designed to take advantage of ethanol's cooling characteristics and resistance to engine knock.

The supported E85 calibrations incorporate adaptive safeguards for ethanol concentrations between approximately E60 and E85.

Full E85 is recommended by IE for achieving the highest advertised ethanol performance output.

Important: Use only the ethanol calibration intended for your exact tuning stage and hardware configuration. Confirm fuel quality, ethanol concentration, and any additional fuel-system requirements before installation.

Optional Exhaust Crackle & Ghost Cam Features

The IE Audi 4.0T ECU Tune includes optional sound-enhancement features for supported tuning configurations.

Exhaust Crackle adds a motorsport-inspired exhaust sound during applicable driving conditions.

Ghost Cam introduces a distinctive lopey idle characteristic, giving the twin-turbocharged V8 a more aggressive sound.

Both features can be enabled or disabled through the supported IE POWERlink interface.

Actual sound characteristics depend on the vehicle's exhaust configuration, selected calibration, and operating conditions.

DSG Transmission Tuning

The matching IE DSG transmission tune is an important supporting component for the Audi 4.0T performance calibration.

It is required for the listed Stage 1 ECU tuning configuration and supports the increased engine output through compatible transmission calibration changes.

With the appropriate transmission tune, the engine rev limiter can be increased to approximately 6,800 RPM.

Confirm the exact transmission type, TCU software version, and current IE transmission-tuning support before purchasing.
