MQB 1.8T STAGE 1

IE's Stage 1 ECU Tune delivers an instant increase in performance, leaving no hidden power on the table. In only minutes, Stage 1 will safely max out the factory turbocharger, horsepower, and torque output on entirely stock hardware or maximize the tune with optional bolt-ons (intake, turbo inlet, intercooler).

See the performance tab for power and dyno results

MQB 1.8T STAGE 2

IE Stage 2 software extracts additional power and maxes out the factory turbo by utilizing an upgraded downpipe and performance hardware. Complete hardware upgrades for stage 2 will increase airflow and exhaust flow, reduce turbine backpressure, lower intake air temps, provide faster IAT recovery, and produce a much more efficient and dramatically faster vehicle than the stock hardware and tune.

See below for a complete list of Stage 2 hardware requirements

UPGRADING STAGES

Upgrading from Stage 1 to Stage 2 or beyond is easy! With IE, you only pay the difference in tune cost with no extra fees. When you install the required matching hardware, follow the link on your IE POWERlink software to purchase the tune upgrade, and you will be blowing away the competition in minutes!

HIGH/LOW TORQUE FILES

IE High Torque ECU calibrations maximize power gains throughout the entire powerband and quickly exceed the torque limitations of the factory DQ250 (DSG transmission) calibration or the stock clutch (manual trans), resulting in clutch slip. Stage 1 and 2 files include an optional low torque for vehicles with stock DSG tunes or clutch. Both high and low torque files are included with your Stage 1 or Stage 2 purchase.

High Torque files require the additional purchase of a DSG transmission tune or clutch upgrade.

Important Note: MQB 1.8T models are equipped with three different transmission options; manual, DSG (DQ250), and traditional automatic (AQ250). Transmission tuning is not available for the automatic AQ250 trans, and vehicles equipped with these will not qualify for increased RPM and may see reduced power on Stage 2 and higher ECU tunes. Please verify your transmission type before purchasing a DSG tune.


FEATURES & OPTIONS

INCREASED RPM

To take advantage of your new larger power band, factory rev limiters are raised to 7000 RPM in all stages (will shift slightly before at 6900 RPM on DSG DQ250 equipped cars).

DSG Tune is required to unlock higher RPM, not available for automatic AQ250 transmissions

EXHAUST CRACKLE

Enabling the optional Exhaust Crackle feature will add a motorsport-inspired crackle sound to your exhaust note when you free-rev the engine or decelerate. The crackle feature is an included option with Stage 2 and higher.

For the most aggressive pops and bangs, an aftermarket catback system is recommended.

RELIABILITY TESTING

IE's fully proven software brings track-ready ECU programming to your turbocharged MQB 1.8T engine while retaining factory comfort and reliability. IE's own tuning technology suite completely reverse-engineers the factory ECU mapping, allowing our software engineers to realign all safety protocols and sensors for the new performance calibration. Every tune parameter undergoes months of testing on our in-house dyno systems that utilize the world's only Sea Level Generator developed specifically to verify tune operations in any condition. Confidently drive from LA to Pikes Peak with power that will keep you smiling every mile!

REQUIRES UNMODIFIED FACTORY IHI IS20 or IS38 TURBO, SOLD SEPARATELY

IS20 TURBO UPGRADE

Installing the factory IHI IS20 turbocharger found on 2015-2021 MK7 GTI vehicles offers an easy upgrade to higher boost pressures with power levels delivering up to 301HP & 361TQ on pump gas! This advanced ECU calibration, when combined with the larger IS20 and stage 2 hardware (intake, intercooler, & downpipe), delivers increased powerband and extensive turbo performance.

See the performance tab for full performance results and dyno charts

IS38 TURBO UPGRADE

More than double your factory horsepower with the even larger IHI IS38 turbo upgrade! Installing the factory turbo from a 2015-2021 Golf R or S3 and matching ECU tune delivers a tire-spinning 338HP & 361TQ, providing the maximum performance with the largest powerband possible. Fully transform your unassuming 1.8T engine into a true sports car with an additional 180HP over stock!

ADVANCED ENGINE MANAGEMENT

Upgrading to a larger turbocharger, ECU tune, and required hardware will deliver the maximum power while staying within the safe power limits of the stock engine internals. IE's calibration and software engineers employed highly advanced tuning practices and equipment to develop a complete ground-up engine management system for the larger turbo's boost profile and powerband. All engine mapping and safety coding have been retained and rewritten for substantial power gains for your larger IHI IS20 or IS38 turbocharger.

My part doesn't have a fitment guide.

We're so sorry about that, but we're working on it! We list over 100,000 SKUs and we're updating them daily. Some products are uploaded without the fitment guides being built out. If you're unsure about product fitment, please email us via support@exoperformance.ca.

  • How do I know if you have an item in stock?

    In-Stock Products

    In Stock

    Items marked as "In Stock" are physically in our facility, so they're ready to ship when the order is placed. If all items in your order are "In Stock", then your order typically ships within one business day.

    Other Availability Modes

    We use several availability modes to most accurately identify when products will leave their home facility:

    Direct Ship This product is available and will be sourced from one of our suppliers. It may take up to three business days before it ships.

    Warehouse Transfer We receive the item, then we ship it to remain on time with the guaranteed delivery range chosen at checkout. It typically takes between 6 and 12 business days before it ships.

    Discontinued - No longer available This product has been discontinued by the manufacturer and is no longer available.

  • How do I know if a part will fit my car?

    We update our catalog daily to provide the most accurate fitment information possible. When shopping for parts, please use the “select your vehicle” car selector on the home page. Once you've selected your car, you can filter parts specific to it.

    Additionally, on each product page, we have a tab for fitment information. By clicking on "Fitment", you can scroll and verify the part you are about to add to your cart indeed fits.

    Furthermore, if you have a vehicle added to our vehicle selector and you are viewing a product page, you'll see fitment information below the "add to cart" button. If an item fits your car it will display "This Part Fits Your: Selected Vehicule". If an item does not fit your vehicle a message will display "This Part Does Not Fit".

  • What is a core charge?

    A “Core Charge” is similar to the deposit you might pay for a can or bottle of soda. In many states, to promote recycling, you are charged a deposit when you purchase a can of soda and you receive your deposit back when you return the empty can. Many automotive parts have Core Charges that work the same way as a soda can deposit. The most common car parts that include a core charge are alternators, calipers, steering racks, and fuel injectors.

  • What is MAP pricing? Why can't I get a discount on a MAP item?

    "MAP" pricing, or Minimum Advertised Pricing, means that the vendor set a minimum retail price that we're not allowed to violate. MAP items cannot be discounted because the decrease in price would violate that threshold.
