DSG TUNE REQUIRED FOR SELECT ECU FILES

Required for GTI & A3 Stage 1 high torque and all Stage 2 tune files, IE’s DSG transmission tune will no longer lug the engine in drive mode or short shift the larger powerband. Clutch clamping forces are increased so the transmission can safely handle and deliver the increased power and torque. To get the most out of your tune investment, a lot of features have been added to make a fully rounded performance vehicle with more aggressive launches, faster shifting, higher RPM, and optimized shift points, and selectable launch control.

IE POWERlink DIRECT PORT FLASH TOOL

IE’s own in-house developed POWERlink cable gives you the control to unlock your engine’s true potential from your own garage or driveway. Enjoy the freedom to quickly reflash your car’s engine control unit (ECU) or transmission control unit (TCU) with IE’s line of performance tunes. The cable simply plugs into your vehicle’s OBD-2 port delivering instant access to choose different IE Tune stages to match installed hardware, take advantage of different fuel octanes, flashback to stock, perform engine diagnostics, read/clear codes and gather high-quality operating data via logging.
