Audi R8 Stage 1: 540 hp → 636 hp
Factory output for the Audi R8 5.2 V10 RWD is 540 hp and 540 Nm. A Stage 1 remap targets 636 hp and 584 Nm — 96 hp (+18%) and 44 Nm (+8%).
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 44 Nm shows up
On a diesel the useful change is torque, not peak power. Going from 540 Nm to 584 Nm fills in the mid-range, which is where an Audi R8 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, 540 hp to 636 hp, but you will feel the 44 Nm far more often than the 96 hp.
What Stage 1 involves on an Audi R8
We read the ECU, log the car as it stands, and put it on the dyno to confirm the 540 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 636 hp and 584 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 R8 this covers
These figures are for the 5.2 V10 RWD as fitted 2019 onwards. 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.
