This is not a figure copied from a database. We hold a real before/after DynoRevolt sheet for the 1.6 TDI — the 105 hp baseline and the Stage 1 result, measured in our own workshop, not estimated. Ask to see the run for your car.
Audi A3 Stage 1: 105 hp → 140 hp
Factory output for the Audi A3 1.6 TDI is 105 hp and 250 Nm. A Stage 1 remap targets 140 hp and 320 Nm — 35 hp (+33%) and 70 Nm (+28%).
Those are the figures we work to on this engine. They are a starting point, not a promise: the number we hand back is the one your car makes on our dyno, measured before and after on the same day, in the same conditions.
Where the 70 Nm shows up
On a diesel the useful change is torque, not peak power. Going from 250 Nm to 320 Nm fills in the mid-range, which is where an Audi A3 actually spends its time — pulling from 1,800 to 3,000 rpm in a high gear, overtaking without dropping two gears, towing or carrying weight without the engine falling on its face.
Peak power moves too, 105 hp to 140 hp, but you will feel the 70 Nm far more often than the 35 hp.
What Stage 1 involves on an Audi A3
We read the ECU, log the car as it stands, and put it on the dyno to confirm the 105 hp baseline — a tired or faulty engine gets diagnosed before it gets mapped, not after.
The calibration is written for your car, not pulled from a file library. We adjust fuelling, ignition timing, injection timing and boost, then re-run the dyno to verify the 140 hp and 320 Nm figure and check knock, lambda and temperatures under load.
Turnaround is same-day for most cars. Stock file is archived, so the car can go back to standard whenever you want.
