You will feel more connected and in control of your newly refined and enthusiast-programmed Audi.
INCREASED STANDING LIMITER
Regain full control of your throttle pedal anytime you want it. The factory soft limiter nanny has been removed and raised to 7000RPM, allowing you to free-rev the engine in both park and neutral.
FULL POWER, FULL RELIABILITY
Your new high-performance tune is calibrated to safely maximize the engine and turbocharger power capability without sacrificing reliability or daily comfort. IE's calibration team has reverse-engineered the factory ECU mapping and expanded all safety protocols and sensors to the new performance tuning. Every ECU parameter undergoes months of testing on our in-house dyno systems that utilize the world's only Sea Level Generator developed specifically to verify safety operations in any condition. Confidently drive from LA to Pikes Peak with power that will keep you smiling every mile!
