BDT Stage 1 ECU Tune
2000–2006 Audi TT 225HP 1.8T (8N)
Your Audi TT didn’t come from the factory to be quiet or timid — it came to hunt. Boost Dynamic Tuning’s Stage 1 ECU Calibration is the wake-up call your 225HP K04 1.8T has been begging for. Expect faster spool, a sharper throttle, and that hard-pulling mid-range the stock file leaves on the table — all while keeping a smooth OEM+ daily feel.
Drive it daily. Rip tunnels at night. Launch whenever you feel like embarrassing stock cars.

AUDI TT 225 1.8T STAGE 1 PERFORMANCE ECU TUNE
BDT Stage 1 turns your 225 into what Audi should’ve shipped: harder pull, quicker response, and a K04 that finally feels alive. Designed for stock-turbo cars on 93 octane with safe OEM-style protection logic.
Crackle Pop & Overrun (Optional)
On lift-off or free-rev, you’ll get that clean overrun burble and snap that makes the TT feel aggressive again. Factory exhaust = subtle. Aftermarket exhaust = wicked.
Boost Control Optimization
Factory boost is conservative and lazy. We reshape the curve so power hits earlier, builds smoother, and stays consistent through the pull — no weird dips or soft spots.
