Audi a6 3.0 t performance upgrades

We are pleased to present the GIAC Stage 1 Plus Audi A6 C7 ECU upgrade (2013 - 2016) with 3.0 Supercharged engine. The Audi A6 C7 ECU upgrade replaces the standard software in your car's engine control unit without any physical modifications. In other words, the tune adjusts ignition timing, fuel delivery, boost settings, rev limiter and/or speed limiters to optimize performance and, in some applications, fuel economy. We can easily flash the ECU upgrade through the OBD-II port of your car (an installation fee is additional).

GIAC's understanding of vehicle controllers goes much deeper than simple table variable modification. While most "tuners" can only add and subtract from existing tables in the Engine Control Unit, we have the ability to change the functionality of the ECU at the code level, allowing for a complete calibration and even creation of new tables and functions.

GIAC map switching gives customers the ability to change performance settings in their vehicle without a visit to the shop. The switch takes a couple of seconds and can even be done while the vehicle is idling. We have tuning products for fuel quality ranging from 91 to 109 octane covering both normally aspirated and turbo models.

- All fuel grades are North American AKI or (RON+MON)/2. For more details click here.
- Reported wheel figures measured on GIAC's in house 4WD Mustang Dynamometer with a 2012 Audi A7 3.0T. Also, HP and Torque figures are average engine estimates from wheel power and acceleration testing. To sum up, the results will vary depending upon environmental conditions, vehicle, transmission, vehicle health, operating conditions, temperatures, fuel grade, dyno type, dyno setup, and other modifications.

Hand-held flashloader switcher for the Audi A6 C7 ECU upgrade

The optional GIAC’s Flashloader Handheld Switcher allows users to switch between optional maps/modes in the ECU upgrade with the touch of a button. To clarify, it is a pocket-sized, hand-held device that plugs directly into the OBD port. Furthermore, it uses serial flashing technology and requires no additional hardware within the ECU. To use the switcher, you should select the desired mode with the touch buttons. Cycling the ignition will save the new mode to the ECU’s memory and retain its state until switched again.

Hand-held flashloader switcher maps:

  • Stock mode - The ECU of the car is switched to factory settings.
  • Pump mode - The upgraded map which is optimized for pump fuel.
  • Race mode - It gives additional power and should only be used with high-octane fuel.
  • Valet mode - It will reduce the engine output to prevent other people (valets :)) from abusing your car.

The optional switcher with different modes for your Audi A6 C7 Stage 1 Plus starts at $200 (contact us for details).

How much hp can a 3.0 t handle?

The APR Ultracharger System dramatically increases horsepower and torque, and maximizes the power potential of the 3.0 TFSI. It removes a massive pre-supercharger restriction, allowing uninterrupted airflow into the supercharger for up to an astonishing 542 HP with APR's Supercharger and Crank Pulleys.

How much horsepower does a Audi A6 3.0 have?

The other option is the one I had in my tester, a delightful 3.0 turbo V-6, making 335 hp @ 6,400 rpm and 369 lb-ft @ 1,370 rpm through the same dual clutch transmission.

Is the 3.0 T Audi engine reliable?

Let first start by saying the 3.0T Supercharged Audi engine is a very solid engine. It is not particulary failure prone and would be the most reliable S model engine to date.

Is the 3.0 supercharged Audi reliable?

With forced induction from a Roots-type supercharger, this engine is capable of some impressive power figures rivaling and outperforming V8s used in older Audi models. As far as Audi engines go, this one has been incredibly robust, with few major issues plaguing owners.
