IE DL501 DSG Tune | Fits Audi C7/C7.5 S6 & S7

OVERVIEW TECHNICAL &amp; SUPPORT AUDI C7/C7.5 S6 &amp; S7 DSG TCU UPGRADE The IE DSG Tune for your Audi C7/C7.5 S6 or S7 4.0T delivers increased power, higher RPM limit, faster shifts, optimized shift points, improved launch control and additional transmission performance features when paired with the matching ECU tune. Acceleration times will greatly improve turning your tuned 4.0T V8 into a fully rounded performance monster.   PERFORMANCE MATCHED IE's S6 &amp; S7 4.0T Tune is a fully realized performance calibration that delivers unmatched power figures. Without a DSG tune, the torque output from Stage 1 and above exceeds the transmission torque limit and will slip the clutch packs. Furthermore, the TCU upgrade modifies the RPM limit, shift points, throttle maps, launch control functions, paddle response, and temperature management to fully match the new ECU calibration. As a result, horsepower and torque levels are massively raised and acceleration is greatly improved to create a complete ECU &amp; DSG performance package. LEADING FEATURES Performance matched calibration for all IE 4.0T ECU tunes Increases torque limits and clutch pressure for tune gains Optimized shift points for fastest acceleration in drive &amp; sport Lightening-fast shift times Removes first gear lockout when downshifting Faster paddle response times in manual shifting mode Optimized launch control RPM to control tire spinning Gear hunting is greatly reduced Temperature protection optimized for safety Direct port OBDII at-home flashing IE DSG TCU Tune requires a matching engine ECU Tune. Do not install on stock engine software. MAXIMIZED SHIFT POINTS The IE DSG Tune remaps the shift points RPM limits and optimized gear by gear for the fastest possible acceleration. From launch and through every gear the DSG will shift at the optimal points to carry the car through each gear as quickly as possible. This will guarantee the fastest shift points on the road, track, or drag strip with incredible improvements in acceleration and G's. These optimized shift points take place when in Drive mode or Sport Mode, when in manual paddle shift mode the transmission limit remains 6800 RPM in all gears leaving full manual control over the shift points. DSG GEAR SHIFT RPM 1st Gear 6800 RPM 2nd Gear 6400 RPM 3rd Gear 6000 RPM 4th Gear 5800 RPM 5th Gear 5600 RPM 6th Gear 5300 RPM ONE TUNE FOR ALL STAGES IE’s S6 &amp; S7 DSG tunes are all-inclusive without any unnecessary upgrades or additional charges for future ECU Tune upgrades. All features and optimizations are included for any level of hardware or performance stage, one cost and you are covered for all and any future upgrades. ADJUSTABLE LAUNCH CONTROL DSG launch control has been completely reworked to deliver chest pounding launches from a stop. The factory delay felt when releasing the brake pedal is greatly reduced for a faster reaction time. 3 different launch RPMs are included with your DSG Tune so you can dial in the fastest launch for your setup and conditions. With the proper launch RPM set in your TCU, you can launch to the moon knowing your tires will put down the maximum power needed for the fastest launch. EASY INSTALL FROM HOME IE's POWERlink Cable and Flash Wizard software gives you the freedom to quickly flash your new IE ECU or TCU Tune. Simply plug your POWERlink into the vehicle's OBD-2 port and follow the on-screen directions, it's that easy! If you are purchasing along with an IE ECU Tune, you do not need to purchase two POWERlink cables. One cable can flash both your ECU and TCU tunes. RELIABILITY TESTING IE's fully proven transmission software allows the full performance experience from your turbocharged V8 engine while retaining factory comfort and reliability. 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 DSG 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. OPTIMIZED DRIVE MAPPING The factory DSG calibration is designed to keep the engine operating extremely low in RPM and short shift as much as possible. IE software engineers have completely reworked all the complicated drive mapping within the transmission computer control unit with enthusiast and performance driving in mind. This new calibration reworks all of the factory short-comings to eliminate vibration and "lugging" feelings. Downshifting behavior is modified to deliver faster and on demand power when you need it. CLUTCH PRESSURE ECU Tuning unlocks massive amounts of power form the twin turbo V8 engine. Increasing the clutch pressure allows for the transmission to hold this torque without causing clutch damage or expedited wear. With the increased torque, the acceleration will be greatly increased and launches are far more aggressive. TAKE-OFF LAG REDUCED The clutch engagement has been reworked to reduce the annoying “DSG Lag” when moving away from a stop. This feature is most noticeable in daily driving scenarios and makes your every day commute much more enjoyable. FITMENT GUIDE MAKE MODEL YEAR GENERATION AUDI S6 2012-2018 C7 - C7.5 AUDI S7 2012-2018 C7 - C7.5 IMPORTANT INFORMATION 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 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, 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.
