The Audi A4 3.0 TFSI 290hp is a 3.0L turbocharged petrol engine producing 290 BHP and 420 Nm from the factory. With a typical Stage 1 remap, output increases to approximately 400 BHP and 520 Nm — a gain of around 110 BHP (38%) and 100 Nm (24%).
This engine scores highly for remap suitability, with gains weighted towards peak power — the improvement is most noticeable at higher RPM. The tuning headroom is classified as high, based on the percentage gain available from the factory output.
From a technical perspective, the ECU is typically a Bosch MED9/MED17 (varies), and the transmission is manual and dsg/s tronic automatics are common depending on model/engine. some dsg/dual-clutch gearboxes have torque management; calibration may be torque-limited. at this torque level, transmission and driveline servicing history becomes especially important..
Considerations: Turbo petrol: fuel quality and cooling can influence repeatable performance.. High tuned torque: check transmission torque capacity and service history.
All figures shown are typical estimates based on aggregated Stage 1 data for this engine variant. Actual results depend on vehicle condition, mileage, and the chosen tuning method. We recommend discussing your specific vehicle with a qualified remap professional.
