Power figures are wheel horsepower/torque (WHP/WTQ). Results vary with dyno type, altitude, heat-soak, and fuel quality.
Stage 1 — No Hardware Required
Stage 1 is a stock-turbo, stock-exhaust calibration designed for a completely unmodified vehicle. No hardware changes needed — just flash and drive.
⚠️ High-flow exhaust is NOT compatible with Stage 1. If you have a high-flow exhaust installed, you need Stage 2.
✓ Optimized boost curves
✓ Refined ignition timing
✓ Improved throttle response
✓ Speed limiter removed
✓ Neutral/Park rev limit raised
✓ Torque limiters raised
✓ Auto Start/Stop defaults OFF
✓ LPFP/HPFP targets optimized
✓ VVT optimization
✓ Intake air temp safeties
✓ EGT safety logic
✓ Crackle pops (optional)
Highly Recommended: Cold air intake + upgraded intercooler for heat consistency.
Stage 2 — Hardware Required
Stage 2 maximizes the factory turbo's safe efficiency range with required supporting modifications.
✓ Aggressive boost targets
✓ Advanced ignition maps
✓ Increased rev limiter
✓ Speed limiter removed
✓ Enhanced mid-range torque
✓ Torque limiters raised
✓ LPFP/HPFP targets optimized

✓ Reduced turbo lag
✓ Crackle pops (optional)
Required: Air intake + High-flow exhaust. Highly Recommended: Upgraded intercooler + drivetrain inserts.
Crackle Pops — Overrun Burbles
Add that aggressive exhaust burble on decel and lift-off. Available in four intensity levels:
- Low — Subtle pops, daily-friendly
- Medium — Noticeable burbles, spirited driving
- Intense — Loud crackles, aggressive sound
- Flames — Maximum aggression
Crackle effect is more pronounced with aftermarket exhaust systems. Stock exhaust will produce a softer tone. Tuned with RPM windows and exhaust temp safeties.

? Cable Return Policy: Cable must be returned within 3 business days of your tune or a $1,000 charge applies. Prepaid return label included.
Recommended Maintenance Schedule
IF YOU WANT YOUR CAR TO SURVIVE, THESE MUST BE DONE. I DON'T RECOMMEND THESE FOR FUN — I'VE TUNED COUNTLESS EA888 CARS AND THIS IS WHAT I'VE SEEN THROUGH THE YEARS.
| Component | Interval |
|---|---|
| Spark Plugs — NGK R7438-8 or OEM | Every 15–20K miles |
| Engine Oil — 5W-40 Liqui Moly + OEM Filter | Every 5K miles |
| Transmission Service / Flush (OEM fluid only) | Every 30K miles |
| MAP Sensors — OEM only (intake + before TB) | Inspect at 50K miles |
| PCV Valve Assembly | Replace at 50K miles |
| Fuel Injectors + Carbon Cleaning | Every 65K miles |
Consistent maintenance ensures your tune performs optimally and protects your engine long-term. If you can't afford the parts, please don't tune your car.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What do I need for Stage 1 on my Passat 1.8T?
A: Nothing required beyond a healthy stock car. Intake, intercooler, and fresh plugs are strongly recommended for best results.
Q: Is a high-flow exhaust compatible with Stage 1?
A: No. If you have a high-flow exhaust installed, you need Stage 2.
Q: What do I need for Stage 2?
A: A high-flow exhaust and air intake are required. Intercooler and fresh plugs are strongly recommended.
Q: Can I flash at home?
A: Yes. Remote OBDII flashing with support is included. A Windows laptop is required.
Q: What fuel should I use?
A: 93 octane is required. We can build maps for 91 octane if that's all you have available in your area.

A: Absolutely. We can adjust pop levels, fuel targets, and boost behavior while keeping safeties intact.
Q: Can I upgrade from Stage 1 to Stage 2 later?
