RACINGLINE OEM+ PERFORMANCE SOFTWARE
1.8 TSI IS12 MQB tuning
Two-stage software for MQB-platform 1.8 TSI models, developed and measured on RacingLine’s in-house Superflow dynamometer.
LIKE FACTORY, BUT BETTER
Perfect performance.
Every day.
Every aspect of the engine’s behaviour is controlled by the calibration installed on its ECU. RacingLine develops each calibration from the ground up for safe, smooth and responsive performance.
Outputs are presented in kW and Nm as primary units. Actual results can vary with fuel, vehicle condition, fitted hardware and test method.
