034 Motorsport - CUPRA Leon VZX Tuning - Stage 1 & 2 ECU Tunes

Flash tune your Leon VZX from home or on the go with '034SPI' Mobile app.

034 Motorsport ECU tuning software for your CUPRA Leon VZX is simply mind blowing! Readily available for you to flash at home with your Dynamic+ Flash kit is Stage 1, Stage 2, E85 and DQ381 Gen 2 TCU files. 034 Motorsport software calibrators have been able to extract over 130 BHP from a stage 1 tune!

Your EA888 Gen 4 2.0T Dynamic+ Performance software was developed entirely in-house on 034 Motorsport's development Audi 8Y S3 & Golf MK8R which run the same engine and gearbox (engine code DNFC). These calibrations were then refined on multiple test vehicles around the world. Significant time has gone into road and track testing to make sure the ECU/TCU software is powerful, safe and reliable.

034 Motorsport CUPRA Leon VZX Tuning Figures

Stock: 296 HP / 400 Nm
Stage 1 98: 427 HP / 545 Nm +131 BHP & 145 Nm
Stage 1 E85: 449 HP / 566 Nm +153 BHP & 166 Nm
Stage 2 98: 431 HP / 547 Nm +135 BHP & 147 Nm
Stage 2 E85: 455 HP / 584 Nm +159 & 184 Nm

Included at no extra cost is the Stage 1 Dynamic+ Performance TCU Software for CUPRA Leon VZX equipped with the DQ381 G2 7-Speed DSG transmission. A stage 2 Gen 2 DQ381 TCU tune is available. We recommend you pair your ECU tune with stage 2 TCU tune.

Please note some later year gearbox software is still in development. In this case a lower torque file will be provided which is safe to run for your gearbox. Upgrading to higher torque files and stage 1 TCU is free of charge when they become available.

Flash at home with your Dynamic+ Cable

034 Motorsport offer flashing capabilities on multiple devices. Calibrate your vehicle with Windows PC, or the 034SPI Dynamic+ Smartphone Interface for MacOS, iOS mobile devices, and Android devices. Both programs have the same flashing capabilities, but 034SPI allows you to flash tunes wirelessly using the Dynamic+ Flashing Dongle and your mobile device, change fuel maps on the fly, configure live data displays, record and submit data logs to 034Motorsport's Tuning Support team, and utilize diagnostic support tools such as DTC/CEL code read/clear, and more!

Lets put some corn in! E85 CUPRA Leon VZX Tuning

Free with every stage 1 or stage 2 ECU file is corresponding E85 fuel type file. This is NOT a flex fuel tune. Straight E85 should only be put into the tank and the car run on low load for 20 minutes before spirited driving. You will need to flash to the E85 file at this time.

Gasoline blends and race fuel mixtures should not be used, engine damage could occur if the incorrect fuel or octane is used. We strongly recommend an ethanol content gauge be used so that you can monitor the actual ethanol content at the pump you are using.

DQ381 GEN 2 TCU Tuning

  STOCK   STAGE 1 TCU  STAGE 2 TCU
Torque Reporting from ECU Yes Yes Yes
Torque Limits Stock Recalibrated for Higher ECU Output Recalibrated for Higher ECU Output
Shift Speed Suitable Suitable Fastest
Shift Points Slower Acceleration Slower Acceleration Fastest Possible Acceleration
AMAX Launch Optimization None None Significant Improvements to Torque Application and AMAX Shift Strategy


In order to unlock the serious amounts of torque left on the table your DQ381 needs calibration for safe and effective operation. 
ECU and TCU computers work synchronously to properly apply torque to the vehicles drivetrain. Stage 1 ECU files come with FREE DQ381 stage 1 file and there is also a Stage 2 DQ381 file for purchase.

We recommend you package stage 1 or stage 2 ECU tunes with the stage 2 TCU file. The stage 1 file is limited on features, and is more of necessity to run the high torque numbers safely.

For vehicles with TCU software in development the ECU will safely limit the overall torque that is able to be produced. It is safe to drive your car in this condition with only the ECU tuned. Upgrading to higher torque files and stage 1 TCU is free of charge when files become available.

STAGE 2 DQ381 DSG TUNING:

See: Stage 2 DQ381 DSG tune

Torque Safety Strategy Enhancements: The Dynamic+ ECU Tuning accurately reports torque values to the TCU to ensure that all safety systems are intact in both control units, and the added torque from tuning is properly adjusted for when driving/shifting, including all safety systems designed to protect the engine and transmission. This results in better shift quality as the transmission is not having to reduce engine torque or having to adapt to misreported inputs.

Clutch Pressure Increases: In order to safely apply the increased horsepower and torque, DSG Clutch Pressures are increased in all drive modes. Expect to feel firmer and more solid shifts!

Optimized Shift Points: In order to take advantage of the increased powerband from the turbocharger, Dynamic+ Tuning optimizes the shift points in Drive & Sport Mode to maximize acceleration while retaining smooth drivability.

Improved Shift Speeds: To further enhance the acceleration of your Golf R and 8Y Audi S3 , the DQ381 G2 shift times are dramatically decreased in all driving modes, which ultimately results in quicker acceleration.

Kickdown Switch Disabled in Manual Mode: When in Manual mode, you no longer need to worry about accidentally pushing through the kickdown switch on the throttle pedal!

Launch Control Optimizations: From the factory, the DQ381 G2 launch control strategies used are very neutered and designed for a vehicle on a non-optimal surface with low-grip tires. 034Motorsport Engineers have optimized the launch by raising the factory torque limit to take advantage of a better surface and a grippier tire. This ensures that your Golf R and 8Y Audi S3 will 60ft much more effectively and efficiently!

Additionally, significant work was put into refining how AMAX shifts are applied during Launch Control, ensuring that each shift maximizes potential acceleration without inducing wheelspin.

The 034 Motorsport Difference!

THERMAL MANAGEMENT SAFETY STRATEGIES:

With increased power, comes increased heat. With increased heat, comes the need for additional management. For charge air temperature, 034Motorsport has implemented key safety features to keep your engine running optimally and safely in virtually any condition - just like the OEM calibration. Substantial effort was spent on balancing the trade off of charge temp for power, and improving the compressor efficiency so that it doesn't generate too much charge temp.

Charge Air Temp: When the charge temp exceeds 80*C there is a reduction in power output. When the charge temp exceeds 85*C there is a more significant reduction in power output. This charge temp limitation is there to prevent knock events, which can severely damage a motor. With these safety measures in place, you can confidently drive your car, from the top of Pikes Peak to Death Valley, knowing the factory ECU has optimal performance and safety covered..

Coolant Temp/Fan Strategy: From the factory, Volkswagen & Audi like to run hotter water temps to reduce fluid friction losses from cooler, more viscous oil. While better for efficiency, this strategy becomes a safety issue when loads and heat are increased. 034Motorsport calibrators have rescaled the coolant temperature targets and fan control strategies to target lower coolant temperatures when in higher heat conditions, allowing the car to run within a safe heat range rescaled for the added heat that comes from tuning the engine. Once again, this means that 034Motorsport calibrators have kept your confidence in safety fully intact from the OEM configuration.

FUEL SYSTEM OPTIMIZATION:

While E85 provides substantial increases in power, it requires about 30% more fuel than standard pump gasoline per ignition cycle. Utilizing a variety of fuel stratified injection strategies, 034Motorsport calibrators have further optimized the factory fuelling system to be able to adequately support full E85 on factory hardware for Stage 1 & Stage 2.

FREE REVVING IN NEUTRAL & PARK:

The rev-limiter is now removed while in Neutral and Park. Impress friends and annoy those around you with limitless ease!

EXHAUST FLAPS PERMANENTLY OPEN IN DYNAMIC/RACE MODE:

From the Factory, Audi will open and close the exhaust flaps randomly, even in Dynamic mode. With 034Motorsport tuning, When set to Dynamic, the exhaust valves will now stay constantly open.

START/STOP BUTTON MEMORY:

Dynamic+ Tuning for the EA888.4 2.0T retains the Start/Stop engine functionality, but allows users to set the memory for the system based on preference. If you do not want the Start/Stop system to run, turn it off via the in-cabin button and the car will store that selection even after key cycling the car. If you would like it to stay on, select it to be on via the in-cabin button. This is done in a completely OEM fashion, helping enhance the overall experience of driving your car!

ACCURATE BOOST AND TORQUE REPORTING:

As with anything in life, it is always best to be truthful. This especially applies when it comes to reporting torque outputs in the ECU to the other control modules in the car, as well as displaying accurate boost readings to the driver via the boost gauge found on the Virtual Cockpit. With 034Motorsport Dynamic+ software, the ECU is reporting accurate torque values to critical systems like the TCU to ensure that all safety systems are intact in both control units, and the added torque from tuning is properly adjusted for when driving/shifting, including all safety systems designed to protect the engine and transmission.
