Racingline Audi RSQ8 Performance Software & PDM (Flash at Home)

Racingline Audi RSQ8 Performance Software & PDM (Flash at Home)

The Racingline Software PDM Bundle is specifically designed for the 4.0TFSI engine found in the RSQ8. This bundle provides an excellent way to boost your vehicle’s performance while keeping reliability intact. It adjusts essential settings to optimise your engine’s output, enhancing your overall driving experience.

What the PDM Bundle Does

This bundle includes a home tuning device and software that enhance engine mapping and boost control. By fine-tuning these parameters, you can expect a noticeable increase in horsepower and torque.

What’s Required?

• A Windows 10/11 Laptop with USB & Power Supply
• Secure wired (or very stable Wifi) high-speed broadband internet.
• Vehicle Battery Charging Support (20AMP minimum) CTEK brand recommended
• Available mains electricity for the above.

Considerations

While this upgrade can lead to significant performance improvements, please keep the following factors in mind:

• TCU Software: For vehicles with DSG (Direct Shift Gearbox), consider pairing with the ECU+TCU software bundle. This ensures smooth gear changes and manages the additional torque effectively.
• Fuel Grade: The performance figures provided are based on using 99RON fuel. If 99RON is not accessible, 95RON files are available, though the peak figures will be slightly lower. Note: do not use 95RON fuel if your vehicle is tuned for 99RON.

Ready for more?

Don’t forget, once you purchase Racingline software, the upgrade from Stage 1 to Stage 2 is free!

This provides you with an upgrade path for Stage 2 tuning; further hardware upgrades will be necessary, alongside transmission or TCU improvements. Required components include:

• Performance Air Intake and Turbo Inlet Elbow
• Performance Intercooler
• Performance Downpipe

If you are looking for more than stage 1, we recommend getting in touch with us first to plan your upgrade.

Theft Protection

Increased security for peace of mind, you can immobilise your RS using the PDM’s Theft Protection function.

• Ultimate Security: Leverage your PDM unit to instantly flash an anti-theft map, rendering your vehicle’s ECU and engine completely inoperable until you return and re-flash a stock or performance map
• Zero Start Policy: Unlike simple immobilisers, this feature makes it literally impossible for the engine to start, providing absolute peace of mind in high-risk parking areas or when traveling
• Quick, Convenient Control: Activate and deactivate this advanced security feature in moments using the PDM tool

What happens next?

• Place your order online using your preferred payment method.
• Our team will contact you directly via email to confirm and set up your digital Racingline account.
• We’ll ship your PDM tool directly to you, with access to the correct software for your vehicle, ready to use as soon as it arrives!
