Integrated Engineering Performance TCU/DSG Flash - Audi A4 B9/A5 F5/Q5 FY 17-20 (DL381)

Important note: Compatible with 2017-2020 DL382 DSG "Gen 1" transmissions only. TCU tune is currently incompatible with all 2021+ "Gen 2" TCU versions. In some rare cases, 2019 and 2020 model year vehicles may be equipped with unsupported Gen 2 variations.

Requires Integrated Engineering POWERLink OBDII Dongle. Select option to add if required.

PERFORMANCE MATCHED

Unlock the full potential of your iE B9 2.0T Stage 1 and Stage 2 engine (ECU) tunes with our matching transmission (TCU) tune. Without it, your power gains and performance features are limited, leaving untapped acceleration and power on the table. Upgrading to the iE TCU tune significantly enhances shift speeds, eliminates torque limiters, increases line pressure to prevent transmission slip, and introduces user-adjustable launch control functions. Experience a dramatic enhancement in launch power, pulling force, shift responsiveness, and overall acceleration.

VARIABLE LAUNCH CONTROL

Experience chest-pounding launches with our iE transmission tune featuring adjustable launch control. Tailored for optimal performance, choose from three distinct launch options: street, aggressive, and race. Each option increases the launch RPMs, allowing you to customize the launch experience to suit your vehicle and tire setup for the best grip and take-off power. Each launch setting offers two RPM launch and AMAX options, easily controlled by the throttle pedal:

• Apply 100% throttle input without engaging the kickdown switch to launch from the minimal chosen RPM without AMAX.
• Engage full pedal pressure while activating the kickdown switch to launch with an additional 400RPMs and trigger AMAX in all shifts, delivering the most aggressive launch and pull strategy.

Note: AMAX is an advanced shift programming that greatly improves accleration by maintaing power to both transmission clutches simutaniously while transitioning between gears. This feature delivers a strong advantage in a competitive drag racing type scenario.

DRIVING ENHANCEMENTS

The factory transmission calibration often falls short in meeting the demands of performance enthusiasts, leaving much to be desired. iE's TCU tune addresses these limitations by entirely reworking the transmission drive-mapping strategy, catering specifically to the enthusiast driver. Beyond driving improvements, our TCU tune introduces additional features designed to enhance the driving experience:

• Reduced take-off lag time from a standstill.
• Enables gear display on the dashboard in both drive and sport modes.
• Eliminates factory torque pull during AMAX shifting.
• Increases protection by automatically reducing engine power if transmission temperatures climb too high.

RELIABILITY TESTING

IE's own tuning technology suite is used to completely reverse-engineer the factory transmission mapping, allowing our software engineers access to realign all safety protocols for the new TCU calibration. Every tune parameter undergoes months of testing on our in-house dyno systems to verify all correct conditions for peak power delivery and reliability. All driving behavioral maps undergo thousands of miles of testing and a variety of users were polled to develop the ideal driving behavior.

INSTALLATION

Take control of your Audi A4, A5, or Q5 2.0T engine and transmission tunes from your phone! iE's cutting-edge and innovative POWERlink Bluetooth dongle (sold separately) plugs into your vehicle's OBD II port creatig a wireless link for our responsive mobile app to flash your tunes, change launch control settings, switch octanes, upgrade stages, perform diagnostics, monitor live gauge data, and more all from your Apple or Android phone!

TUNE UPDATES

Your tune purchase entitles you to free updates to any tune revisions, new octanes, standard features, or software updates. In the event the original vehicle manufacturer issues an ECU or TCU update, this will also be included to you through iE at no additional charge.

POWERLINK VINS

Have multiple cars in the family or friends that are also ready for an iE Tune? Your POWERlink Flash Tool can be used on up to 5 different vehicle VINs. Tunes sold separately.

TUNE REGISTRATION

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