Stage 1 – 800 Nm+ DQ500 MQB Transmission & Mechatronics Upgrade
for Audi RS3 8Y (2.5 TFSI)
Maximum performance requires a transmission that can keep up. Our Stage 1 DQ500 transmission and mechatronics solution was developed specifically for the Audi RS3 8Y (MQB EVO) and takes the durability, shifting performance, and stability of the stock DQ500 to a significantly higher level. To implement the well-known transmission software on the RS3 8Y (2021 and later), the entire mechatronics system must be replaced.
