For GTI models with locked TCUs, our calibration team has custom-coded the engine control unit (ECU) programming to properly manage torque signals to and from the transmission. This advanced strategy safely enables full horsepower and torque, even without a TCU tune. Stage 1 & 2 low torque files are included for manual transmissions w/stock clutch. { "__shgImageV2Elements": { "uuid": "s-d87813ec-c93f-4412-801e-e1ceb100c7a5" } } ECU STAGES HIGH-PERFORMANCE ENGINE SOFTWARE STAGE 1 UP TO 377 HP & 433 FT-LBS TORQUE The iE Stage 1 ECU tune delivers an easy 56% more horsepower and 44% more torque on stock hardware.

UPGRADE GUIDE PART UPGRADE STAGE 1 STAGE 2 AIR INTAKE OPTIONAL REQUIRED INTERCOOLER OPTIONAL REQUIRED CATBACK EXHAUST OPTIONAL OPTIONAL PROCORE DOWNPIPE OPTIONAL OPTIONAL iE's advanced catalyst ProCore Downpipe is the only recommended option. Non-iE downpipes will result in a check-engine light. INCLUDED FEATURES E85 READY Ethanol is like rocket fuel for your GTI! Stage 1 & 2 supports E60-E85 ethanol blends that produce the highest power output due to running cooler and have a higher knock resistance than 91/93 pump gas. EXHAUST OVERRUN Stage 2 files add an aggressive exhaust ovverrun/crackle when you let off the throttle, downshift, or decel from higher RPM. This feature is also available when free-revving in neutral or park. Guaranteed to put a smile on your face.Exhaust overrun is included with Stage 2 tuning. REV FREE A raised engine speed limiter of 6750 RPM gives you more power at higher RPMs. We've also removed the park limiter so you can free-rev your engine in park or neutral. BRAKE BOOST Brake Boost gives you a rolling launch. While giving throttle input, use your left foot on the brake to build boost while maintaining your desired speed. When ready, let off the brake for a surge of power and boosted take-off for the competitive edge in a roll racing scenario. RESCALED POWER GAUGES Get accurate readings with rescaled factory boost, power, and torque gauges that match your new performance output. We’ve also smoothed out the gauge animation for more precise and refined display readings. AUTO START/STOP MEMORY Take control of your driving experience with an auto start/stop button that remembers your preferred setting—even after you turn off the car. FAN LAUNCH STRATEGY When launch control is engaged, iE’s Fan Launch Strategy keeps intake air temperatures low by kicking on the cooling fan to give you maximum power from the start. AUTOPROTECT Even with the best tuning, unreliable fuel and mechanical failures still pose a risk to any engine. iE AutoProtect is your last line of defense against engine damage. If trouble pops up, AutoProtect lowers boost and power to keep your engine safe against damage. When conditions return to normal, power automatically restores. Our unique error code is triggered so we can help pinpoint the problem. LEARN MORE AutoProtect is included on all stages   THROTTLE RESPONSE The torque request and throttle maps have been entirely reworked to deliver an ultra-responsive and connected driving experience. Enjoy a sporty throttle with smooth and dependable power delivery. { "__shgSlider": { "id": "#slider-s-2403086e-cae0-4fea-acea-ccbc26cfa326", "intervalTime": 5, "autoplay": false, "pauseOnHover": false, "transition": "animate__noAnimation", "interval": null } } { "__shgImageElements": { "uuid": "s-f6d6480d-6fed-480a-a3d2-8db8e2b2b50d" } } { "__shgImageV2Elements": { "uuid": "s-014cabf0-a730-45e2-b6d7-c2ff9628c6a1" } } WE GOT YOU.
