We are pleased to present the GIAC DSG Stage 2 Audi S3 8V TCU upgrade (2013 - Present) with 2.0 Turbo TSI (Gen 3) engine. The Audi S3 8V TCU upgrade supports higher torque levels, faster shift speeds, and higher launch and rev limiters to ensure you get the most from your car. Matching this program with the GIAC engine calibration will give the best results. GIAC DSG performance software complements our performance engine calibrations. The installation process is very quick, using regular GIAC flashing tools through the OBDII port. Installation does not require removal of the DSG computer from the car at any time.

DSG Stage 2 TCU upgrade

GIAC DSG Stage 2 TCU upgrade allows the transmission to hold higher torque levels with faster acceleration and quicker shifts.

The Audi S3 8V TCU upgrade is available for the following TCUs (feel free to stop by our shop to check yours): 0D9300011R_4317; 0D9300012L_4501; 0D9300012L_4523; 0D9300012_4903; 0D9300014Q_5006.

Features:

• Increased linearity on part throttle input, nearly to 1:1 input between accelerator pedal and throttle plate
• Faster, smoother transitions between gears at part and wide-open throttle
• Part throttle torque limiters for shifts removed to alleviate potential hard shifting due to exceeding torque limit (alleviates “EPC limp mode�? issues specific to this as well)
• Launch control limiter set at 3500 RPM for FWD models / 3700 - 4500 for AWD models ( platform dependent )
• Launch control torque limits removed allowing full power launching and full clutch clamping pressure with launch control
• Hard rev limiters set at stock limits
• Remapped drive mode "drive plus program" with recalibrated shift logic and slightly more aggressive gear holding points
• Full clutch clamping pressure at wide open throttle allows for 100% power delivery to the ground
• Optimized torque limits to better match increased engine power with ECU performance software
• Improved clutch pack transitions between shifts for cleaner shift feel
• Manual mode kick-down disabled / Auto upshift still enabled
• Improved upshift/downshift paddle response time
• Optimized transmission overheat protection
