Stage 1 is precisely calibrated to make the most of your stock hardware. Huge horsepower and torque gains are delivered smoothly across the entire powerband without adding a single aftermarket part. Enthusiasts will have the choice between 91 & 93 fuel octanes and the ability to adapt to minor bolt-on modifications, such as an intercooler or intake if wanted. Low torque (manual trans w/ stock clutch) and high torque (DSG trans or upgraded clutch) files are available.
Stage 2 releases every last ounce of power from your stock turbo engine by taking full advantage of performance bolt-ons including downpipe, intake, and intercooler. You can install this setup in a single weekend and transform your Golf R or S3 into a true AWD monster with 432HP and 467TQ! Easily switch between 91, 93, or 104 octane files whenever you want to add more power. Load Stage 2 and get ready to experience the true power monster that has been hiding under the hood of your MK7 Golf R or 8V S3.
READY TO UPGRADE STAGE 1 TO STAGE 2?
Upgrade to Stage 2 from Stage 1 at anytime with ease! After the install of your downpipe you only pay the difference in tune cost with no extra fees. Simply follow the link on your IE POWERlink software to purchase the tune upgrade and you will be enjoying another power bump in minutes!

WHAT DOES AN ECU TUNE DO?
Adding an IE Performance ECU Tune to your Golf R packs a serious punch both in performance gains and in additional features resulting in extremely competitive power that will give you the edge on the street or track. IE’s in-house calibration engineers have taken several steps to ensure you a smooth and safe operation by maintaining factory safety limits, or “fail safes”, resulting in extreme reliability. As a final step, the software has been calibrated in various test environments that ensure smooth operation in all types of climates and elevations.
HOW DO I INSTALL THE TUNE?
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.
System requirements:
Laptop or tablet with Wifi connection and USB port running Windows 7 or above operating system required. Powered by 32 or 64 bit processor with 1.0GHz or greater and 4GB of Ram.
OPTIONAL EXHAUST CRACKLE
Make people look twice when your S3 or Golf R drives by. This feature makes your performance car sound like a true motorsport machine when you rev, decelerate, or let off the throttle for gear changes. This exhaust crackle is completely safe and entirely addicting. Optional feature included with stage 2 tunes.

IMPORTANT NOTES
REST OF WORLD (ROW) SUPPORT
IE tunes are designed and written on North American (NA) vehicles. Although IE does offer ROW purchases of software files, some ECUs available only in certain countries or markets may not be supported in our current file library. If you have access to read your ECU code, please contact us to verify compatibility before purchase.
INCREASED RPM
IE Golf R and S3 performance calibraitons continue to make power and torque above the factory rev limiter. To take advantage of the larger power band, factory rev limits have been raised to 7000RPM. On automatic equipped cars, our DSG Tune is required to unlock these higher RPM ranges. DSG Calibration will shift slightly before (6900RPM).
