Modern turbo engines are marvels of engineering, but manufacturers often leave performance on the table to meet emissions standards and protect warranty life. That’s precisely what we uncovered when this 2016 Audi A3 2.0L TFSI rolled into Revhigh for a Stage 1 no-modification tune—and the results were eye-opening.

Why Stage 1?
A Stage 1 tune focuses purely on software calibration. There are no hardware changes—just precision adjustments to the ECU (engine) and TCU (transmission) maps. This means you keep your factory hardware and warranty intact, while still unlocking significantly more power and torque.

Before vs. After
On the dyno in stock form, our Audi A3 mustered 130.4 kW and 334.4 Nm at the wheels. After our Stage 1 tune, those numbers jumped to 175.8 kW and 543.5 Nm—that’s an incredible gain of +45.4 kW and +209.1 Nm.

What You’ll Feel
Explosive mid‑range punch thanks to optimized boost and fueling maps
Sharper throttle response with reduced lag
Smoother, quicker shifts courtesy of the TCU recalibration
Improved drivability and efficiency under everyday conditions
Why It Matters
These Audi 2.0TFSI motors are wonderfully robust—but out of the box, they’re held back by conservative factory settings. A Stage 1 tune doesn’t just add horsepower; it transforms the entire driving experience. You’ll notice a car that feels alive, responsive, and ready to perform at any speed.
