In addition to the HP chip tuning box, theStage 2 performance upgrade alsoincludesa modified intake system (variant selectable) for improved airflow.
The Sport Series intercooler, featuring large air guides for maximum airflow surface area, significantly reduces the load on the entire system.
The offer also includes an input and output measurement on our all-wheel drive test bench , where we carry out the individual tuning of the engine software before we also take a test drive on the road.
Hardware changes:
- Sports air filter insert
- HP chip tuning box incl. app
- HP 4" 100mm closed intake (variant selectable)
- HP Sport series intercooler incl. air guides
HPerformance currently offers the most powerful legal performance level for the Audi RS3 8Y Facelift with our chip tuning box in combination with the Sport series intercooler. Thanks to the more efficient cooling of the intake air and the specially developed 100 mm intake, the engine is noticeably relieved.
The result: a permanently available and constant output of 520 hp, even on warm days or under high loads. The improved thermals ensure that the vehicle operates reliably and stably without any loss of performance.
The box is conveniently controlled via the smartphone app, while the original engine control unit remains unaffected. The performance upgrade can be activated or deactivated at any time and the vehicle can easily be returned to its standard state.
With this level, drivers benefit from maximum power, high reliability and permanently stable performance - ideal for all those who want to use their RS3 8Y Facelift safely, flexibly and efficiently.

Please note: Performance and acceleration figures may be affected by various external factors, fuels, or additional hardware installed, as well as the overall condition (including mileage) of the engine.

Notes on performance specifications:
The power and torque values listed are approximate or empirical values determined under specific conditions. Deviations may occur due to factors such as varying vehicle conditions, manufacturing tolerances, mileage, maintenance status, environmental conditions, fuel quality, or vehicle configuration.
Graphs of power or torque curves are intended solely for the general illustration of possible performance ranges. Due to the multitude of technical factors, actual results may vary in individual cases.
Dynamometer measurements depend on the measurement method, dynamometer type, settings, and other technical parameters. Results from different measurements or test benches may therefore vary and are not necessarily directly comparable.
Power increases may lead to changes in power and torque characteristics compared to the stock condition. The extent of these changes may vary depending on the vehicle and configuration.
All power specifications are therefore to be understood as non-binding reference values.
A consistent improvement
With the latest hardware generation, HPerformance has consistently further developed Stage 1 of the RS3 8Y and made it significantly more thermally robust.
The in-house HP Sport Series intercooler with optimized air guides ensures significantly improved heat dissipation under load - a decisive factor for consistent performance in everyday driving and on the racetrack. The setup is complemented by the HP 4" aluminum intake (100 mm) on the standard turbo inlet, which is optionally available in other variants. In combination with the sports air filter insert and high-quality hose adapters and clamps, the result is a harmoniously coordinated package for maximum efficiency and durability.
The result is not only noticeable increased performance, but also an emotional driving experience with more powerful response, more precise air flow and noticeably increased driving pleasure – entirely in keeping with the HPerformance DNA.
