This answers my question haha I’ve done every thing except intacooler turbo and fuel pumps as I was under the impression that was stage 3 mods I’m looking forward to my stage 2 I don’t have an s3 I got the next best thing the 1.8 tfsi Quattro s-Tronic haha things rapid can only imagine what an s3 is like
The transmission on the MQB platform is a dual clutch transmission also known as a DSG transmission, and yes I had the DSG tune added shortly after I went with the Stage 1 tune. I needed to the transmission (DSG) tune in order to install the Stage 2 tune
@@vwrich bought a s3 last week and had no idea it was IE stage 2, talked to IE and they confirmed it has engine stage 2 and DSG tune, all I can really tell under the hood is that it had IE downpipe, is there anything else I need to do under the hood to keep the car from blowing up?
Sounds so much better than every raspy EA888 exhaust sounds I've heard
Thank you
Sounds great!
Nice vid, thanks. Does the stage 2 tune need an IC?
An Inter cooler? I think it's recommended but not required

Is that with the exhaust crackle feature turned on in the tune?
Yes. Stage 2 has that option
Palm face . It was all going so well till it said let's here it lol or let's hear it? .. how's it going anyway? All good?
Sold the Audi lol, back in a VW. Loved the tune and IE bolt ons, car was quick and responsive
Do you need a bigger intacooler for stage 2 some people saying I do but some say I don’t haha ?
It's recommended, I've always run a larger intercooler when going stage 2
How does the car feel compared to the IE stage 1 tune without the downpipe? I am looking to do the downpipe to mine shortly.
I was very happy with stage 2 and the downpipe. So much so that with the new car I went straight to stage 2 again.
@@vwrich do you have intercooler or no? Im going stage 2 but says intercooler recommended, do you think it's necessary?
@@chrisseromenho4609 I'd recommend it. I've also upgraded my intercooler any time I've gone stage 2
Transmission or Dsg tune !?

@@Noname23489 make sure the intercooler has been upgraded as well as the diverter valve.
