WHAT DOES AN ECU TUNE DO?

Your factory TSI power plant is controlled by a very advanced Engine Control Unit (ECU). This complicated computer is loaded with maps and routines to operate your vehicle efficiently, however, much of the available performance is left on the table and the calibration is not written to take advantage of aftermarket power adders such as cold air intakes, intercoolers, donwpipes and turbo upgrades. IE's advanced ECU Tunes are extensively engineering to completely reverse-engineer the factory mapping and re-write new calibrations for ultimate performance without sacrificing factory comfort and reliability. These perfected ECU Tunes undergo thousands of hours dyno testing, street analysis, track days, altitude verification and more. Each test results obsessive revisions resulting in a rounded tune that will take your VW or Audi 2.0T TSI engine from "peppy" to "WOW"!

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.

PLEASE NOTE: Mobile phone app flashing support is unavailable for VW MK6 (EA888 Gen 1 & 2) generation 2.0T engines. These engine ECUs require a Windows 10 or newer laptop for tuning.

 

System requirements:

Laptop or tablet with Wifi connection and USB port running Windows 10 or above operating system required. Powered by 32 or 64 bit processor with 1.0GHz or greater and 4GB of Ram.

OPTIONAL TUNE FEATURES

Give your TSI turbocharged engine an aggressive sporty sound. This fun feature is guaranteed to put a smile on your face 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 and K04 tunes.

Stage 2 completely taps out all the available power from the small factory BorgWarner K03 Turbo. Upgrading the turbocharger to a BorgWarner K04 boosts your car to the next level, delivering up to 391HP & 398TQ! IE's TSI K04 Turbo Tune has been obsessively perfected to unleash the full potential from your turbo upgrade while remaining factory-like comfort and reliability with your choice of 91, 93, or 100 octane. Get ready to spin those tires with an addictive power and torque gain!

This free option is included with a Stage 1 Tune purchase and is for owners who have installed an IE Performance Intake Manifold (Sold Separately). IE Stage 1 Intake Manifold software fine-tunes the ECU calibration to match the manifold plenum and runner flow characteristics along with special tuning for the removed runner flaps. Even though tuning now matches higher flow characteristics of the intake manifold, performance numbers are still limited by the factory downpipe. Because of this, Stage 1 IM combination is only recommended for users who are planning on Stage 2 IM in the future, are trying to get rid of constantly failing runner flaps or cracking plastic manifolds, and building for improved engine bay looks.

Included with all Stage 2 & K04 Tune purchases, This manifold calibration is designed for customers looking to maximize the performance of the turbocharger with an IE 2.0T Performance Intake Manifold (Sold Separately). Like Stage 1 IM tune, this software fine-tunes the ECU calibration to match the manifold plenum and runner flow characteristics along with special tuning for the removed runner flaps. Results with a manifold deliver power gains across the powerband, fully realizing the 2.0T TSI K03 or K04 power potential.

*This ECU calibration is for second generation 2.0T TSI (timing chain driven) EA888 Gen1 & Gen2 direct injection engines. Many VW & Audi models are equipped with early year 2.0T FSI (timing belt driven) EA113 engine and is a separate tune. Not sure? Don't worry, your new IE flash tool will automatically detect your engine and apply the correct tune for your engine.

**This ECU calibration is for 2.0T TSI EA888 Gen 1 & 2 engines only. Many Jetta and GLI models are equipped with a new engine variation (EA888 Gen 3) after 2013.5 and later. This tune does NOT support Gen 3 model engine ECUs. Please verify if your engine is an EA888 Gen 1/2 2.0T TSI or EA888 Gen 3 2.0T TSI tune before ordering.

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 2.0T TSI Tunes continue to make power beyond the factory rev limiter, to take advantage of the larger power band, the rev limits have been raised. All tunes include a new RPM range of 7000RPM. On DSG equipped cars, our DSG Tune is required to unlock these higher RPM ranges.
DSG Calibration will shift slightly before these rev limiters.

*This ECU calibration is for second generation 2.0T TSI (timing chain driven) EA888 Gen1 & Gen2 direct injection engines. Many VW & Audi models are equipped with early year 2.0T FSI (timing belt driven) EA113 engine and is a separate tune. Not sure? Don't worry, your new IE flash tool will automatically detect your engine and apply the correct tune for your engine.

**This ECU calibration is for 2.0T TSI EA888 Gen 1 & 2 engines only. Many Jetta and GLI models are equipped with a new engine variation (EA888 Gen 3) after 2013.5 and later. This tune does NOT support Gen 3 model engine ECUs. Please verify if your engine is an EA888 Gen 1/2 2.0T TSI or EA888 Gen 3 2.0T TSI tune before ordering.

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 2.0T TSI Tunes continue to make power beyond the factory rev limiter, to take advantage of the larger power band, the rev limits have been raised. All tunes include a new RPM range of 7000RPM. On DSG equipped cars, our DSG Tune is required to unlock these higher RPM ranges.
DSG Calibration will shift slightly before these rev limiters.

IE Stage 1: No-brainer (2012 VW Tiguan - CCTA engine)

After driving my 2012 VW Tiguan SE with 2.0 TSI CCTA engine and IE Stage 1 ECU tune (93 octane): boy, was it worth it!

First of all, the car finally doesn’t feel as dead anymore accelerating from idle. Beforehand it really crawled off the line until reaching boost, now there is more of a distinctive kick to it stepping on the gas. If I were IE I would advertise that, it’s not subtle!

Generally speaking, the torque band is now so much wider and the power delivery not only more powerful, but also way more even. I have to admit that I did not expect this big of a difference! The car just pulls way more playfully, and what I especially love are the increased turbo noises, simply a result of higher boost being released upon lifting I suppose. On OBDEleven I was able to verify that ECU now demands much higher boost levels (well over 2 Bars), and the effects are obvious. Other reviews have said this before, but the far really feels much more like it’s meant to be now.

Flashing the ECU was beyond easy, I do have some advice for Mac users though (and I think IE should consider putting this in their own FAQ / support docs):

Since I have no regular access to any Windows machines I was considering purchasing a cheap old laptop first, but then decided to give it a go using Parallels Desktop with Windows 11 ARM as a virtual machine on my 2020 M1 MacBook Pro - worked absolutely flawlessly. So flashing even using Apple Silicon is absolutely possible.

As for the battery charger to keep…

Awesome!!

As always IE parts are top notch. I installed on my 17 CC R and had to cut down the pipe to 45 inches long, but once I did that it fit like a glove. Definitely feel the difference when you press your foot down and get to about 3200 rpm. Followed with a stage 2 tune. Love it!

Works good. It was a quick easy install but you have to do with a windows laptop. I tried with an apple and it does not work
