The mountune Stage 1 calibration dramatically improves power and torque output across the entire rev-range; peak power is increased to 310PS, with torque raised to 475Nm. It also features a sharpened pedal map and via the mTune SMARTflash app, includes a host of additional features and functionality, too.
For maximum performance the mountuneStage 1 should be used together with a high-flow intake.
Optimised to work with the mountuneX3, the pressure drop achieved removing the OE induction setup yields further improvements in peak performance, throttle response and also enhances induction noise.
Power figures achieved using 99RON fuel (Stage 1 is safe to use with 95RON). Power output may vary based on individual vehicle condition, fuel quality and method of testing.
The mountune DSG TCU calibration works in harmony with the Stage 1 engine calibration to fully exploit the maximum available vehicle performance and engine torque output.
Our SMARTflash OBD Bluetooth interface and SMARTflash app allows you to easily reprogram the gearbox's calibration inside the TCU (Transmission Control Unit). This allows the transmission to maintain higher torque levels through the revised clutch pressure optimisation.
Shifts are faster, giving harder and quicker acceleration through the gears, whatever level of performance your car has.
The driving mode strategy itself is also optimised to suit higher power levels, giving a more coherent gear selection profile. Switch the controls over to manual and you'll have real gear control, quite literally at your fingertips - no automatic upshifts, no kick down until you decide you want it.
In addition, launch control will get you off the line quicker through allowing more boost at launch and increased launch RPM.
I have installed both the ecu and tcu stage 1 calibration to my gpf 245 Octavia VRS and couldn’t recommend it more, the power deilvery is far superior to the oem calibrated car and has gave both the IS20 EA888 engine and the DQ381 gearbox a new lease on life. Far superior pulling power from low down in the revs, I currently have the supporting mods of an intake, inlet pipe and turbo elbow and will definitely be recommending this to other MQB enthusiasts. The ease of tuning at home was also very appealing to me and was very quick and easy to install. Should be one of the first mods carried out on any *** car.
