IE Performance Tuning For VW MK7 MQB Golf R & Audi 8V S3
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 reliability. As a final step, the software has been calibrated in test environments that ensure smooth operation in all types of climates and elevations
IE STAGE 2
Ready to release every last ounce of power from your stock turbo 2.0T engine? Stage The 2 ECU tune take full advantage of performance bolt-ons including downpipe, intake, and intercooler. You can install this setup in a single weekend and transform your MK7 R into a true AWD monster with 432HP and 467TQ! Easily switch between free octane tunes whenever you want to add more power with your choice of 91, 93, or 104 octane files. Load Stage 2 and get ready to experience the true power monster that has been hiding under the hood of your VW MK7 Golf R.
TrueFlex E85 Ethanol
E85 fuel unlocks the most performance potential from our ECU tunes for your Golf R or S3 Gen 3 engine. Ethanol contains tons of oxygen, burns cooler, and has a high resistance to knock. This provides more horsepower and torque than running conventional gasoline and is more readily available (in most states) and less expensive than race gas. IE TrueFlex tunes take this a step further and allow for 91 octane all the way up to full E85 or anything in between on one tune without the need to reflash! TrueFLex is an included option with stage 2 tunes.
TrueFlex is an included option for 2015-2017 Stage 2 Tunes. Stage 1, Garrett GT2260S, and 2018+ support is coming soon.
Advanced Launch Control
IE’s 2-step launch control with rolling anti-lag is now available for 2015-2018 VW & Audi MQB 2.0T engines. This advanced ignition cut strategy safely builds engine load with up to 10lbs of boost within ½ a second for a truly aggressive motorsport launch to increase 60-foot and 0-60 speed for a faster quarter-mile! When engaged at a set speed, this anti-lag will build an instant boost for a powerful rolling launch as the ultimate roll racing weapon! This fully custom programming features numerous safeguards for optimal engine, turbo, and exhaust system safety. Customers can now enjoy the ultimate launch advantage for competitive track racing today!
2-step launch & RAL is currently available for 2015-2018 MK7 GTI, Golf R, A3, & S3 2.0T Stage 2 (high torque) and higher tunes for all pump gas and TrueFLex files. Support is currently for NA (North American) ECUs only, ROW and 2019+ model years support is coming soon!

Technical Features
Dynometer Optimized
After completely reverse engineering the factory ECU, our engineers use our in-house Dynapack DP42 dynamometer to perform repeated runs to test each change that is made to the software and confirm drivability in any situation. This ensures IE performance software delivers massive horsepower and torque increases across the entire powerband. Using our in-house dyno and advanced tuning tools, IE engineers have fully optimized every aspect of the factory ECU mapping on many different vehicles. This produces a tune that retains all factory like driving and safety protocols when needed, and an intense surge of power when you want it.
Removed Speed Limiter
The factory ECU speed limiter has been removed to make sure the increased power and torque can be used to its full potential on straightaways and drag strips.
Increased Rev Limit
With the significant power increase, the rev limiter is also increased to allow a wider powerband on all IE Audi A3 files. By increasing the rev limit, you gain a perfect match for the increased performance available from your new IE performance software tune.
Improved Throttle Response
To further increase the responsive feel of the car, IE engineers have carefully adjusted the throttle sensitivity. This offers a more connected feeling to your car with plenty of power available right beneath your foot.
Optimized Fueling
All IE tunes have been adjusted to run as economically as possible, dialing in air/fuel ratios to exactly where they need to be. With an IE performance ECU flash, it is common to see increased fuel economy under cruising and part-throttle driving.
