STAGE 1
UP TO 542HP & 558FT-LBS TORQUE
iE Stage 1 ECU calibration is a simple flash-only upgrade that delivers instant excitement, providing a broader powerband, a higher rev limit, and increased boost pressures that result in significantly faster 0-60 times and improved acceleration. This advanced calibration can be installed on a completely stock car, and it will adapt to take full advantage of intake and intercooler upgrades.
- Recalibrated factory boost gauge displays higher boost
- Neutral/park rev limit raised to 7000 RPM
- Road speed limiters removed
- Brake boost enabled for rolling launches
- Auto-start/stop defaults to off (can be turned back on)
- Includes advanced TrueFlex ethanol (requires hardware)
- Shielded by iE AutoProtect
STAGE 2
FOR THE EXHAUST LOVER
The 2.9T engine includes two larger and efficient factory downpipes that do not result in power or exhaust restrictions on stock turbocharger. Although this platform does not provide additional power gains on Stage 2 tunes, this is ideal for users seeking a more aggressive exhaust note and includes an enhanced exhaust overrun/crackle feature in dynamic drive mode.
- More aggressive overrun/crackle in Dynamic mode
- Crackles enabled for free revving in park or neutral
- Includes advanced TrueFlex ethanol (requires hardware)
- Includes Stage 2+ for use with iE HPFP upgrade
STAGE 3 PURE800
UP TO 741 HP & 688 FT-LBS TORQUE
Experience the supercar-crushing performance of iE Stage 3 engine and transmission tunng designed for the bolt-in PURE800 twin turbo upgrades. Your RS5 will be completely transformed into a torque-rich powerhouse with explosive throttle response, minimal lag, and relentless pull through redline. Experience massive horsepower gains while preserving the everyday comfort and refinement.

TCU STAGE 1
INCLUDED WITH STAGE 1 & 2 ENGINE TUNE
iE ECU tunes far exceed the torque limitations of the stock B9 2.9TT transmission programming, which triggers the transmission computer (TCU) to limit power output. The included stage 1 TCU tune raises these torque limits while keeping all transmission driving characteristics otherwise stock.
- Increases transmission torque limits
- Inlcuded at no extra cost with all stage 1 & 2 ECU tunes
TCU STAGE 2
THE COMPLETE TRANSMISSION PERFORMANCE TUNE
Stage 2 TCU tune is a complete performance transmission calibration that delivers lightening fast shifts, optimized shift points, multiple launch-control modes, enthusiast drive mapping, and more! Pairing this TCU calibration with an iE Stage 1 or Stage 2 ECU tune will significantly transform every aspect of your RS5, or RS4, delivering faster launches, higher Gs, and further improved acceleration.
Stage 2 TCU is for use with either Stage 1 or 2 ECU tune.
- Optimized shift points for the fastest acceleration
- Unique shift points for HPFP and TrueFlex ethanol files
- Enables launch control in drive, sport, and manual modes
- Includes user-adjustable launch control settings
- Lightning-fast shift speed
- 7th and 8th gear enabled in sport mode
- Enables downshifting into 1st gear without coming to full stop
- Refined drive for the automotive enthusiast
- Reduces time for double-downshifting gears
- Line pressure increased to protect against trans slip
TCU STAGE 3
MATCHING TRANSMISSION TUNE FOR STAGE 3 PURE800 TURBOS
iE Stage 3 ECU tune for the PURE800 turbos deliver massive power gains across the entire powerband and further into the higher RPM range. These performance enhancements require a complete matching transmission calibration. iE Stage 3 TCU Tune is the matching transmission calibration for hybrid turbos with optimized shift points, further increased RPM limits, and new drive-mapping
