HOW DO I GET THE TUNE?

Let NGP Install it for you

If you'd rather just have us install the tune for you, that's perfectly fine. Simply contact one of our shops and we'll set up an appointment to have an IE tune installed to your car.

At Home With POWERlink

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.

System requirements:

Laptop or tablet with Wifi connection and USB port running Windows 7 or above operating system required. Powered by 32 or 64 bit processor with 1.0GHz or greater and 4GB of Ram. Alternatively, you may also use an Android or Apple iPhone with the PowerLink Mobile App.

Please note that if you are planning on flashing your car at home, we highly recommend having a proper battery charger on hand. If your vehicle loses power while flashing it, you run the risk of damaging your ECU.

OPTIONAL TUNE FEATURES

Exhaust Crackle

Give your supercharged engine an aggressive sporty sound. This new feature makes your S car sound like a true performance machine 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 dual pulley tunes.

True Launch Control

IE's True Launch Control feature adds the motorsport function of two-step launch control built into the ECU software. This offers neck-breaking launches with engine load and boost built from a stop. This provides a large advantage over similarly powered vehicles. Optional feature included with dual pulley tune (2013+ B8.5 only)

Throttle Body

This is for all the marbles, designed to completely unleash the complete performance potential from your supercharger by removing the factory throttle body limitation. This tune feature is for dual pulley setups that are also running our IE Throttle Body Upgrade Kit for the fastest S4 in town! Optional feature included with dual pulley tune and requires IE Throttle Body Upgrade (IEINCG3A).

E40 Blend Fuel

The IE Stage 2 Dual Pulley Tune offers you tons of power potential on multiple octane options including support for E40. The direct injection factory fuel system cannot safely support the amount of fuel needed for full E85 fuel, even with an HPFP upgrade, however, it can support a maximum blend of ethanol to E40. This E40 blend is an ethanol mix of E85 with regular pump 91/93 fuel (about 2/5ths E85 and 3/5ths 91/93 with E10 premium gas). To run this fuel safely, it must be pre-mixed and verified before filling into an empty tank. You can read IE's blog article on how to safely blend ethanol HERE. Optional feature included with dual pulley tune.

IMPORTANT NOTES:

CATALYTIC CONVERTERS
IE's pump fuel 91/93 tunes are specially calibrated with safe air to fuel mixtures that inhibit "knocking". These mixtures also provide cooler exhaust gas temperature and thus are safer for the 3.0T's fragile catalytic converters than many competition tunes. Higher octanes are intended for higher power output and do not guarantee factory catalytic converter safety.

INCREASED RPM
IE 3.0T Tunes continue to make power beyond the factory rev limiter, to take advantage of the larger power band, the rev limits have been raised. Core and Pro tunes include a new RPM range of 7200RPM while on Apex tunes the RPM is raised to 7350RPM. On S-Tronic (DSG) equipped cars, our DSG Tune is required to unlock these higher RPM ranges. DSG Calibration will shift slightly before these rev limiters.

Once a tune purchase is applied to your vehicle's ECU, the tune is permanently registered to the vehicle and non-transferable to other vehicles. Tune can be transferred to a second party in the event of vehicle transfer of ownership only.

Try IE software for 45 days from shipment date, if for any reason you are unsatisfied the tune may be removed and refunded risk-free.
