Audi A3 Saloon Stage 1: 170 hp → 207 hp
Factory output for the Audi A3 Saloon 2.0 TDI DPF is 170 hp and 350 Nm. A Stage 1 remap targets 207 hp and 422 Nm — 37 hp (+22%) and 72 Nm (+21%).
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 72 Nm shows up
On a diesel the useful change is torque, not peak power. Going from 350 Nm to 422 Nm fills in the mid-range, which is where an Audi A3 Saloon 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, 170 hp to 207 hp, but you will feel the 72 Nm far more often than the 37 hp.
What Stage 1 involves on an Audi A3 Saloon
We read the ECU, log the car as it stands, and put it on the dyno to confirm the 170 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 207 hp and 422 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.
Which Audi A3 Saloon this covers
These figures are for the 2.0 TDI DPF as fitted 2003–2008. Engine code and ECU type decide what is possible, so send us the registration or VIN and we will confirm the exact variant before you book anything.
